Good morning all .........
Another 100 bites the dust. Just what Mags said early this morning, it is like a lifeline. It really helps for those of us who are alone. Thanks to everyone who contributes - no matter how much or little!
Giz and I tried a different route today ... to McD's this time for coffee take-out. It is a short ride ... but thru dog country!!! Yep, in just a couple of blocks on a Sunday (yawn) morning, we saw a (?) ... either a boxer, a pit bull or a cross ... couldn't see the head too well.
Last night sleeping was a little strange - but not as weird as the night before. Although, there were more hot flashes thru the night. In past chemo treatments, I had no sleeping problems and few hot flashes. This variety of chemo is stronger - more recently approved by the FDA - so I guess it may come with more side effects ....... wunderfull!!!!!!
There must have been a front that came thru last night but without rain ... cause Gizzy the 4-legged barometer was up on the sofa with me much of last night watching some TCM b&w movies ... a couple of them British.
That reminds me, one of the movies was called "Hell Drivers" and was from the 50's. It was actually a pretty good British flick with most of the big name Brits from the 50's in it. And also ..... in a bit part .... was someone by the name of Sean Connery! God - he was young - but even in this film, a lady's man! Some of these older movies are much fun!!!!
Didn't mean to write a novella here ...... but I'm feeling pretty good this morning except for the occassional hot flash.
Hey Karen ....... no sign of rain here today. It's again very bright and sunny and the temp was around 60+ degrees at 8am this morning. As you might know ... Chicago plays Detroit today (no not baseball - thank God today is the last Cubs game of the season). Your team has an absolutely great receiver (the best in football) and possibly one of the worst Head Coaches (at least he often has a terrible attitude and is a chronic complainer). You have two great defensive linemen - although one of them does have a bad reputation. You have a very good quarterback who keeps getting better each year.
Now, as I recall, you're not a football fan - but you do have a pretty talented team that usually underperforms for the season. It's the coaching - not the team! It could be a very good game today. It could be a very high scoring game with lots of great plays by several very good players - both teams.
It's almost time for the pre-game shows here. Sorry ... I'm not a big sports fan - but I am a fanatic Bears fan .... with signed photos and books and all kinds of memorabilia!
Hope everyone has a good Sunday ... with nice weather ... and have some fun today. And kiss your dog today ....... unless he's a char-pei!!!
Just kidding!!!!
