Pretty good day.......
Linda: What a long day though. I've been plastered to the couch since we got home. We spent the morning in the clinic going through my last cardio test and then dropped by Brasada Ranch to place a large wreath above the fireplace in our large spec home (may it sell soon!). We stopped to do some grocery shopping and finally drove home.
I am trying to take advantage of my good days before next weeks chemo. After that, I won't feel like doing much until Christmas week. I haven't done any baking or candy making and usually I go nuts with it, giving tons of it away. I feel bad that I can't do all I'm used to doing for the holidays, but that's just part of the new normal. Dave gets a lot of it put on his shoulders. There would probably be no gifts under the tree if it weren't for him. He's definitely is my Christmas angel.
Thanks for all the recent comments. Many of them bring me to tears. I keep thinking one of these days you will tire of reading the blog, but I haven't been disappointed yet. I know your lives are busy now too.
Love and gratitude.......Linda

Never do I tire of reading -- finding out how you're improving. Your steadfast courage is inspirational. And while I can feel your sincere regret over the baking, remember that you're going through all this so that you can do make all the goodies once again come next year and many years after that.
hugs and warm healing golden glows,
Susie

We made it back to Chicago in a snowstorm last night. John and I are catching up today with our Christmas list. I gave up baking several years ago and it was easier than I thought it would be. How are you two doing with the flooding? Looks like Oregon got hit pretty badly. I remember the pics of your creek from awhile back. NO raging river, we hope.
Well, back to our list......
