I'm going to be out the door in about three minutes to pick up Lisa at the hospital and then head to the dermatologist's office to have a big chunk of cancer cut off my right shoulder/chest area. It shouldn't take long, but ya never know with these things. It is Grade A cold here right now... 31... Sign in to see full entry.

I don't like posting at odd times, but that seems to be the norm lately. I have to take Lisa to the hospital at 7:30 for an overnight sleep test. This isn't a normal sleep 'study' but a search for what her brain is doing while she is sleeping. A lot of her issues occur in the middle of the night,... Sign in to see full entry.

It has been raining all day, starting very early this morning, about 4 AM, as I recall. Our power went out a mile or so down the road to the east due to an accident. It just came back up a few minutes ago. It's also only 55 degrees here, so I am glad we have our heating system set up differently. We... Sign in to see full entry.

Answering The Door in My Undies
As I told Lisa as I woke up this morning, "Do you know how long it has been since the last time I woke up after 10:30 in the morning? A long, long time ago!" I think between the 'cold,' the cancer treatments, the 'drama' of Lisa's issues, and everything else, my backside is dragging badly. I don't... Sign in to see full entry.

Good late morning. We stayed up really late (even for us) until almost 3 AM, just talking and laughing about little stuff. Consequently, I didn't wake up until 10 AM this morning. It got right down cold again last night, briefly touching 39 degrees. We don't intend to do any shopping beyond normal... Sign in to see full entry.

I'll start out complaining... it's cold! We had lows in the low 40s, and so far, it has only reached 58. Normally, that wouldn't be a problem, but with the high humidity, the lower temps make it feel twenty degrees colder. On the plus side, my head is still hurting, but not as bad as it was...

Good afternoon. Today is definitely better than yesterday. While my head still hurts, the pain is subsiding, and the medication they gave me seems to be handling the situation. Imagine someone used a little spade on your head and dug up a few potato plants. Then, they cut up the potatoes and cut... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank you for all the words posted to my column yesterday! ************* I posted this on my FB page: Today's random "Word of the Day" from the Big V Dictionary: ********* CRAP - noun.

We are home... and we are both very tired. While Lisa was being seen by a doctor, I slipped into the dermatology office just down the hall. I knew we would be there for a while, so I figured I could be seen at the same time. They washed my head with all kinds of special soaps and cleaners, and then... Sign in to see full entry.
