Last day of October, 2012......

It has been a long time since anyone came here for treats. Between it being too dangerous to walk in front of our house and our not having the outside lights on has meant we haven't had "treaters" for years now. It is also pretty cold out there tonight so we definitely aren't expecting anyone. I only had one appointment this week - acupuncture yesterday. It went okay. She is pretty booked next week so it will more than likely be another week before I go again. It did help though - I had spit yesterday and most of today. I am having to chew Biotene gum right now though. I got the information for my appointment next month with the Lymphoma Oncologist at Duke and I really hope I like her. I have to go and sign a release at the other cancer center tomorrow so she can get all my medical records regarding the lymphoma before I see her.

Jessie sent me this picture of Page in her new "meeting" coat. I like it. She also told me a Page story. It has to do with hat day at school and the unique way Page decided to wear two different kinds of hat at one time. Oh yeah.....that's our girl. We are definitely driving up Saturday to spend the night with them and I can't wait to see all of them. I think they are going to cook BBQ chicken and hopefully, her Mom and Dad will join us. I am looking forward to being with all of them. It has been way too long. Hopefully it isn't going to be too cold - I'm pretty much cold all the time anyway these days. Dwight just asked me to find out if Zandra would like to come "baby-sit" me next month for him to go fishing. Since he is only going to be gone the weekend, I doubt she will come for that. I'll have to ask Geral if she will be available. That reminds me, I need to ask Debbie if she can come by Saturday and give Miya her medication. It will be good practice for her for when we are gone for a week. I have mixed feelings about leaving her alone that whole week. I know you think that is silly but she is our baby. I feel sorry for people who don't love their cats. I am also hoping we can get out to see Ennis in the next few days. I found out she is home now and I really, really want to see her.  It is so hard being dependent on others to get around for every little thing.  I will be so glad when I'm off the Oxy and can get around by myself again. I know poor Dwight will be happy too. He is pretty much trapped by my situation and has been wonderful about it.
