It has cooled off quite a bit, but we are 'working' inside. The skies are dark and pregnant with rain that hasn't decided to fall yet. Lisa is doing better today and is moving around reasonably pain-free. She's getting 'mouhty' again, so I know she's doing better! I love it. Of course, this has been... Sign in to see full entry.

The tornado warnings have been removed, but we will still have some heavy rain and lightning today. We live at the dead-end of a dead-end street, and all of this rain is running downhill toward us for about three blocks, bringing all kinds of leaves and soil with it. Never one to look a gift horse... Sign in to see full entry.
We have a very strong line of storms and high winds hitting us right now. We also have a tornado watch until about 1 PM. I'm not particularly worried due to our downhill side position.

I just got my wife home and put her to bed. She had a very small spot of vaginal cancer at the introitus (the opening) of her vagina.

It appears to be a beautiful day developing. It's already in the mid-70s, headed to the mid-80s. I can take that. I got almost enough sleep to feel great. The past few nights have been 'toss and turn' affairs, but I actually woke up this morning quite stiff from not moving much during the night. I... Sign in to see full entry.

A Note of Explanation
Just to give you some background on what is happening with both of us as far as cancer goes. In 1973, a grainery, a mill that takes corn, oats, wheat, and such and makes it into food for cattle, pigs, and other farm creatures, accidentally mixed a very toxic fire-retardant into a massive mix of...
