It's Thursday.  I woke up feeling pretty puny today.  Feels like a head cold on steroids or something.  My head feels heavy and I'm having a hard time keeping it straight.  It seems too large for my body.  My nose is bleeding and I'm coughing more now.  Geez.  I've got to get rid of this before next Wednesday!  I'm not canceling our trip!  I'm very tired.  Just want to lay down.  It was a very pretty day here, but a bit cool for me to sit outside.  I'm supposed to stay out of the sun anyway.  Poop.  Tomorrow will be a new day.

I got too hot one day when we were camping and I paid for it the entire rest of the day, so I'm not eager to do that again.  David worked all day remodeling the guest bathroom.  He's taken everything out, even the tile.  It's a naked little room.  He's been texturing and painting, etc.  We're going to have a whole new look in there.  It'll be so nice.  We've been in this house for 23 years and it's time to spruce up the place a bit more.  I'm afraid I haven't been much help, but the room is pretty small, anyway.  We'd probably just get in each other's way.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

A few of the schools in east Texas were damaged in the tornadoes.  I feel sorry for the kids.  They especially love math classes, right?  Sure.  Last week, prior to the storms, there was an article about the math classes, I believe.  It said a rubber band pistol was confiscated from an algebra class because it was a weapon of math disruption.

I'm pretty sure that's a true story.  All my stories are.  Yep.  I'm pretty sure.

I'm also pretty sure I read a story about cannibals.  They ate a missionary and got a taste of religion.  I say good for them, right?

On another note...  David went to the store yesterday to stock up the kitchen for me because he's going to Houston in a few days and leaving me here to fend for myself.  He complained that the price of meat is skyrocketing.  He tried to speak to the butcher about it while he was there but the butcher didn't have time for him.  He had backed into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work.....

  6/16/25 I’m back. By a show of hands, everyone that loves my charts, and patient portals, etc. raise those hands high! Hmmmm, I see none going up. I have sent messages on my patient portal on several occasions and heard nothing back. So, I call the office and leave a message, because you never get a real person the first time. No one calls me back. I think I might drive to the office tomorrow. ….. sigh. On a good note, my ctDNA test came back negative. Hooray! And I go back to MD Anderson in Houston in two months. I have an endoscopy in three weeks. I see my rheumatologist in two days. I need to get my dermatologist to take a look at my head. It’s been five weeks since she cut that open and it still has not healed. It’s still scabby and bloody. So, I still cannot get in the pool. And I have to stay out of the sun. It looks pretty icky on the top of my head, I’m sorry to say.  David and I celebrated my good news by going to Shreveport this past weekend. We had a good time. Th...

  5/12/2025 It’s been five months since I’ve written in my blog. Several people are upset with me for taking such a long break. However, my life just hasn’t been very exciting these past few months. I will appease the masses and update my blog today. David and I went on a seven day cruise in January and I continued with physical therapy twice a week for my back. David and I took a road trip in February and March. We drove thousands of miles and stopped in to see a lot of old friends along the way. We made it to Vegas and we got to see Garth Brooks in concert. That was a lot of fun. We kept going through Utah and Colorado and finally made our way back home. I cut almost 10 inches off of my hair in March. It was my first real haircut in years. I had another sleep study done and saw the pulmonologist several times. He wanted a special kind of sleep study so I went back for a third one. He ordered me another CPAP machine, but this one has a different mouthpiece and I sleep pretty well ...

12/10/25 Thursday First of all, good news. My latest cancer test came back negative.  I am currently in Las Vegas, supposedly having a grand time, but I am not. I got food poisoning and spent all day yesterday in bed. At least when I wasn’t vomiting or had diarrhea. All dang day. By evening, I was so weak I could barely walk. The hotel called paramedics and they took me to the ER. I was there until 11:30 PM last night. Poor David. I felt so sorry for him. It was a horrible evening and I’m still weak this morning. I haven’t eaten anything since Tuesday evening . We’re supposed to fly home tomorrow. I sure hope I’m better than this by then. I got show tickets for last night with spectacular seats and David had to take them back and get our money back. At least we got to go to the national finals rodeo Tuesday night. That was so much fun! Today doesn’t look like much fun, though. I feel horrible. They did a lot of scans at the hospital. Showed a lot of scarring in my right lung, which...
