WET, GREY THURSDAY
Posted: Thu Sep 30, 2010 8:29 amGOOD MORNING TO US ALL.
My friend, Kathy, from CA, is back home today, as when they biopsied her lymph node in her chest near her lung cancer, they found it full of cancer. So, as was the plan, they closed the small incision up and sent her home to begin chemotherapy as soon as possible. She has an appointment with her oncologist today. So the battle begins. I am so hoping that the cancer will die back as Sparkle's has, and that they can then remove the offending lobe of her right lung to get rid of the source. Time will tell, and it will be stressful, as we can imagine----and as our own Sparkle knows first-hand. We were lucky to have a wonderful week here, symptom-free, before this latest attack will begin.
It's 52 degrees outside, very grey, heavy air, and raining. Flood watches for some parts of the area today as the rains are scheduled to become very heavy. A good day to stay inside and continue picking at my 'stuff.' I made a huge dent yesterday in the upstairs closet by eliminating years and years of Christmas lights, decorations, paper, and bows and ribbons. I narrowed the stuff down to the newest, least dust-laden things, checked all the tons of strings of lights and tossed any that would not light up. I also found all my summer skorts that I knew I had stored 'somewhere special!' Good thing I don't have a demand for wearing those things!
I should attack the cellar area today, but, by the time I wade through the other side of that upstairs closet, I am sure the day will be over! There are tons of Halloween boxes and Easter boxes, and old home movies and projectors and framed pictures, and who-knows-what-all else up there. Sigh! Never a do-nothing day here! I can always decide to paint the bathroom walls which are cherry paneling----I've had a can of bright green paint in there for years now. It needs some brightening up.
Here's hoping your weather wherever you are is nicer today than is ours, but we are lucky in that we have no hideous winds, no extreme temperatures, and no floods on my property. Stop by for coffee and let us know what's up in your part of this globe. Happy Thursday to all.

Hope it's accurate.
