Wednesday, October 10th

Just realized that I haven't blogged in a while.....everything is fine.....I feel great - like my old self!  I think that's a good thing!!!  Being able to collect social security = means I'm old! but I don't feel like it!

I didn't re-read my last blog, so I may end up repeating what I've said.  I will begin chemo again - most likely in the middle of November.  Charlie and I are going to S.C. to our niece's wedding which I decided to go when I realized = why sit at home when I can go along! and even get to see Samantha!  Nicholas will be staying here with the dogs and cat.

I had mentioned to Dr. May that 'maybe' instead of doing the chemo every other week - maybe once in a while we can skip a week.  She never replied about that - but I'm thinking = it's my body and I'm sure she'll go along with it....what can she do if one week I decide NOT to do the chemo?  She can yell at me = but she isn't a mean person like Dr. Kemeny!!!!    I still re-live that day in my mind every so often!  What a day mare!!!!

Sam is enjoying school...she has a lot on her plate....always keeping busy.  Being 21, having 2 great roommates, going to the gym, football games and tailgating, making some money and getting some money for food while living away from home....duh, no brainer!  What a life!!!  and it's warm there!!!

Paul is down in Miami Beach, weather has been iffy - one day some rain, another day its beautiful out.  He's been going on lots of casting calls that he is requested....but still waiting for 'that right job'.....he's been working some too.  This past weekend he and his roommate went driving around and checking out the area....He even got his first haircut (not by me!)...at first he didn't like it and then when he styled it, he was happier.  He had asked me for that haircut but I told him he wouldn't care for it.  Glad someone else did it first! 

Nicholas has been busy with work and traveling.  A week ago he was in Denver, Colorado - he arrived on Sunday and left Wednesday afternoon to go to Birmingham, Alabama - flying into Atlanta, Georgia then driving to his destination and stayed until Friday afternoon......I asked him when he gets up during the night = does he remember where he is?!  His next trip is the Philippians! for 10 days!  He brought me back some chocolate from Brussels.....I enjoy my chocolate.....but this chocolate....OMG!  it is sooo smooth going down.  If you ever have a chance to taste any chocolate from Brussels - do it!!!  He brought Charlie back his bottle of beer....Charlie has so many bottles from all over the country/world, he's running out of space on his bar!  He needs to build another shelf to put them on!

This weather is changing too fast for me.  Pretty chilly out there!  If my Mom was still here - we'd have the heat on....but with the cost of oil being so high, I can cope with the chill in the air.  Charlie puts the wood stove on when he gets home at night.  Thank goodness I still get my power surges - they don't last long, but long enough that I warm myself up!

I guess you're up to date now....living life and enjoying it!    Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers.

IF you remember, mark your calendar:  Saturday, October 13th at noon - please say the Rosary.  It is the anniversary of the Blessed Mother - Lady of Fatima.....please pass this along to anyone you know.
