Mohs Non-Momentum --- Days 13/352, 53 & 54

Walks: UCSF Dermatology Surgery, none, none

Distances: 1.5 miles, n/a,n/a



How good are you at stopping and resting?  If you are like Ciwt, not very.  So, her doctor's orders to do that after Mohs surgery the other day - including No Long Walking 😲 -was daunting.  But, once she got the hang of it, it has felt good to just relax on her window seat, look out at the stormy weather and actually enjoy her new home.

Much credit for her ability to do all that resting goes to Michael Connelly whose books never fail to engage Ciwt.  She saved her copy of his new one, The Waiting, to bring to the long Mohs process which involved maybe 2 hours of activity and at least 4 hours of waiting while slides were analyzed.  And the book worked its usual magic: drew her in from the first sentence and carried her right through.  When the Mohs was over, she almost didn't want to disturb the book's momentum by leaving the hospital.

So, if you like crime novels, have trouble sitting still but need to, treat yourself to The Waiting or any of Michael Connelly's other books. He is the creator of the Bosch, Lincoln Lawyer and Renee Ballard series as well as several stand alone books, so you have many to choose from. (Here's a link to all of them)
