I&#8217;ve been stuck in the house for four days, so it seemed a good time to get out. <\/p>\n<p>I visited the DMV. Most people have a problem with that, but I&#8217;d rather go to the satellite office of our DMV than to the local post office. I had to renew my license today and was done in less than six minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Still coughing, but still breathing. The coughing is more of a real cough than the sound of all of the ancient gods engaged in a battle royale in the next room, as has been the case the past few days. I haven&#8217;t had any fevers since Tuesday. My congestion has just suddenly disappeared. It seems I&#8217;ve rounded a corner. <\/p>\n<p>The biggest problem now is a lack of energy and endurance. But, then again, I do have a birthday coming up.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of birthdays, when I turned 30, almost to the minute, I came down with a little bug of some kind. &#8220;Nothing too serious, happens all the time. I&#8217;ll be rid of it in a day or three,&#8221; or so I thought at the time. Kept that thing for weeks.<\/p>\n<p>This better not be like that, but I think I&#8217;m getting better.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s photo is from the World War II memorial in Washington D.C. We went into the capital after the game on Saturday night. I haven&#8217;t discussed that here yet, which probably works out well. I still have content after a week of doing nothing!<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, they call this the Freedom Wall. It holds 4,048 gold stars, each representing 100 servicemen and women who died or remain missing from World War II. <\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kennysmith.org\/photo\/dec11\/dec52.jpg\" alt=\"Stars\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Hanging 405,399 stars would have been too imposing. Just the 4,048 is impressive enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I feel like I&#8217;m about 65 percent of myself again.
