I've been feeling really quite well, over the weekend and through infusion day. No problems eating, my taste is not bad and the slimes stayed away for the most part. The reduction in the oral chemo has been a good thing I think. Made it to church on Sunday and went to the DRMC for lunch as usual. Sam was with us as Cathie is in Atlanta for a week. The chicken parm and spaghetti was tasty!
I now have a CT scan scheduled for March 1. No one is particularly anxious for this to happen but it needs to be done to direct the continued treatment. Feeling as well as I have for a few days, it is easy to forget that this is a progressive disease that can move quickly if we aren't doing the right thing so additional information is good.
We put in a bid on the condo on High Street yesterday. If we can get the property tied down, we can plan the reno's necessary there as well make some decisions about what needs to be done here in preparation for listing sometime in the spring when the grass and flowers are looking good. All of this looks doable, but of course the condition of my health is a wild card. I think of my life in month segments now, as the chemo cycle consumes a month. So just one more cycle and it is April! April flowers and all that. Glorious spring!

ReplyDeleteOh, I hope the bid and renos go well! So, you're hoping to stay on the north side! Don't blame you. It's so much closer to the usual amenities.
ReplyDeleteSo how much HGTV have you been watching to prepare for the new digs? Have you called Candice O. yet? ;)
April/May flowers sound so nice right now. Won't they just be sooooooo welcome!? We can't pile the snow any higher along the driveway.
We're your moving/packing/painting men!! We will see you in April and follow whatever direction you point to!! Will keep fingers crossed that high street becomes your place!! Marion and Bob

Good to know you are having some good days and getting out. I have a plan to encourage an early spring--going out to buy a snow blower! We shall see if it works. Meanwhile, dream of crocuses poking through the earth.
ReplyDeleteI'm taking minutes at the Faculty Meeting tomorrow Dick. I think you should come and join us and then it will be just like the good old days!
