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. How Big V feels today after yesterday's chemo and 'Red Light Therapy.' ********** It has been a long, long, LONG... Sign in to see full entry.

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.

NOTE: We must be gone early tomorrow morning, so I will not post until early to mid-afternoon. V Sign in to see full entry.
A quieter day yesterday will probably lead to a quiet day today. We have another appointment at 10 AM in Valdosta, which is about a 35-minute scenic drive away. Only six minutes of the trip are in the city itself. I've driven past Valdosta a hundred times before, but it wasn't until we began seeking... Sign in to see full entry.

Howdy, Doody, boys and girls. Life may not be really fun lately, but life continues. I'm going to let you have a rare look at me and how I am feeling today. Actually, I'm doing better today than I was when I wrote this note last night. As much as I talk about things here and occasionally on FB, I... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. It's gonna be a chilly one - by Florida standards. As of 10:30, it is only 57, with the high expected to be 70. It's a big step above the weather in Newberry in the UP, where it is 43, and heading south the rest of the day. We were going to go out for breakfast this morning, but I got...

Something Almost Serious
Good morning. It will be a little cooler than yesterday, but it will still be a nice day. I had something else I was going to write about, but something I posted on FB late last night as a joke has reminded me of how few people I consider to be 'friends' are not in tune with my reality. I'm not... Sign in to see full entry.
