65/365 Productive, Sunny, Saturday

First Saturday of the month means Home Depot Kid's Workshop, and today they made rain gauges. V said it was one of the easier projects they've done, which I'm sure was nice for him with he usually ends up doing most of the work for L.

After they were home we all went for a walk at the cemetery. The weather has been fantastic, with the temps in the mid 60s and no humidity. The boys started off complaining that walking was boring, and then they whined they were tired. One dramatically threw up his hands and wailed "But it's so far!" (insert huge eye-roll here) When I suggested they take some of the inner dirt roads to see if they could beat us suddenly everything was different. Off they ran, where moments before even walking was too much to bear! And they ran, and ran some more, laughing that they were faster than us. My kids, if it's not fun it's not worth doing.

64/365 Getting rid of stuff

Sometimes that means a trip to the dump, because there is nothing salvageable.

63/365 Another Infed Infusion

Thankfully there was no crazy long wait to see the doctor today, so everything went much smoother. In at 11:20am, out at 3:50pm, and only one stick this time. I had Toni again, and she doesn't freak out over my difficult veins, she doesn't freak when she unintentionally hurts me, she just gets the job done. I like that. Anytime someone sticks me with a needle and I see blood it's a cause for celebration. The only thing she did I didn't like was try to scold V for not holding my hand. I told her no, he knows what he's doing. I have my own little things I do to handle things I don't like and that might hurt, and that doesn't involve someone holding my hand.

There was a brownie, candle, and a happy birthday song, and a brownie, candle, and a happy last chemo day song. The woman who was having last chemo day had her husband take a ton of pictures for her caringbridge page, which made me feel okay about pulling out my own camera and taking a couple of pictures. Much better than the crappy cell phone.

See, crappy cell phone! Told you. Here it is with the other things keeping me company during all that stuck in the chair time. It feels like I'm never going to finish this book, it is an insanely easy read but there is nothing there that makes me want to keep reading. The DS is for Brain Age games, but I do terrible when I am in a place where people are talking, and there is the noise of a TV, so I don't know why I bother bringing it with me.

Things to keep me busy

Infed Drip

Okay, I admit it, the really good stuff is the Benadryl because I love that floaty feeling when it hits. Yes, the cell camera did get used.

I go back in 3 weeks and see where I'm at, with another to follow unless my numbers are just stellar.

62/365 Not Happy

We've all been enjoying Netflix on the blu-ray so much, so when Mediacom went down there was no happiness.

61/365 TV Time

I spend too much of it watching one channel.

60/365 Delicious

Despite the unappetizing look of the white cheese melted on the patty, and maybe because of the shocking amount of bacon, this tasted fantastic. Heart attack on a bun.
