Tuesday....November 24th...2009

OK..the anniversary is over...on to the 30th!

The news:

Linda is doing pretty good...she is feeling a bit more fatigue than in the past....more than likely the Alimta is impacting her more as time goes along....Friday will be infusion cycle number 3....her blood tests have been ok/good to this point so it seems like fatigue is the only thing holding her back...she sleeps a lot..and it is deep sleep.

We are praying the insurance works out....no more hassles!!!!!!!!!

Sunday we went to dinner with friends Bob and Anita and then played cards....Bob won again.....pictures below.

We went down and got a new plant....a new hibiscus....to replace the plant growing out of control in our Lanai....the hibiscus is our favorite plant....maybe because of our Tahiti travels....anyway we woke the day after planting it to find 7 blooms!!!! A beautiful yellow....our red hibiscus presented us with two beautiful blooms also as you can see below...

Today we had lunch with Frank and Grace ......and Dick and Ann...the latter we hadn't seen since last year....it was a fun lunch....everyone picked on Dave....

Tomorrow night we have tickets to the Lightning hockey game with the Toronto Maple Leafs......Linda will sleep in....then nap....so we will have a great evening.....

Thursday Thanksgiving will be at Stuart and Beth's in another part of Wilderness Lake Preserve where we live.....they have been very supportive of Linda as Beth went through cancer and treatment....

Friday we will watch hockey on TV rather than going to the game as Linda will have her infusion....we do have tickets for Monday's game.

That's about what we remember...

Beautiful hibiscus. I have to bring our three plants indoors. Somehow they survive and grace us with some flowers in the dead of winter. I am sure they would be happier my your house.
Linda, you are doing a wonderful job of pacing yourself and still doing a lot of fun things. We might get a peek at snow on Thanksgiving around here. Time to face the music in the Midwest!

Beatiful hibiscus... I love them too, especially since they are my national flower (Malaysia). :)

Enjoy the hockey game, and have a simply lovely Thanksgiving!!

Have a good turkey day. We are off to Laura/Michaels with Sarah/Cas, Hailey/Emily, & Gracie/Arthur. The dogs are still welcomed at kids house even after the two weeks of living there while we were in Phoenix. Good luck with the medical day tomorrow.
