On 01.02.02, I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. Too late for surgery, I had chemotherapy, which failed. In May the chemotherapy was changed and I was soon in remission which was celebrated and welcome and lasted nine years - until October 2011. There was progression in 2011 so more treatment was indicated and I am now back in partial remission. But I'm not only a cancer patient - I also enjoy my family, walk my dogs and am learning to draw and paint. Life is good!

Out of Dodge

Dounton Abbey is finished for another sesason and I don't know know how I will manage the waiting until the next one begins again - next fall, isn't it?  I'm going to look for the book in print to reread as far as I've got to keep the storyline and characters in place thus far.

I can almost read comfortably right now.  Another three drops and I'll have all the clarity of the new print in place and be ready to go.

All what's on the mind these days is packing for Honolulu and getting us packed and out the door.  I'll really be looking forward to seeing our son and Daughter-in-Law and giving up all these notions  of illness and pain.  I's been a long time - three surgeries and an infection - I'm truly ready to be somewhere else.  Did you know that Hawaii is the highest consumer of Spam in the United States?  It is served on the regular McDonald's menu although I've never ordered it there myself.

I'll be attending one conference for continuing eductions units, but mostly just doing nothing.

  1. Spam! I never liked that stuff as it was way too salty for me. My son-in-law likes it yet he normally doesn't care for salty foods (or so he says as some of his favorite foods are pizza and popcorn).

    Pack a sweater as my niece keeps saying on Facebook how cold it is there right now and my brother complains he has to wear a shirt with an undershirt this winter over there!
