Made it to Sis' house was soooooooo good to see her and the kids.. OMG my 15 year old nephew is 6'5 and I am 4'11 lol what a shock I havent seen him in so long...The weather was really nice for the trip we all took turns driving and had a good time.. Will be here till Monday :( and then off to Oregon again... Chemo starts again on Sunday...Have a great day!!

Up bright and early.. well maybe not so bright but def early..Man its hard to sleep when you are excited to go somewhere topped with not being able to sleep anyway lol...We are headed out for california today and I am sooooooo looking forward to seeing my sis (shirl) and kids...We are going to drive till dark and where ever we are at that time going to stop for the nite get a fresh start and be at her house some time tom morning...as far as ct scan feeling ok got the banana smoothie runs but thats normal lol....you would think that after this long they would make a contrast out of margaritas or something hehehe... have a great day!!!! ( oh btw Shirl..chemo is coming to your house..sb there fedex thurs...love ya))

Well I made it, wasnt a bad trip just long and good hiway all the way cept started raining hard when we got to Eugene.. Had quite a dif bunch of peeps on the bus with me lol .. When I left Burns the kid sitting next to me (Indian) was coming back from Alcohol rehab.. suprised me was only 21 days but he said he had to do it to get out of jail....He said he had an anger problem and got into a fight and thats why he was in jail... I asked him if he gets angry when he is sober and he said not as much and I thought oh great I hope he is happy now heheh then on the way from Bend to Eugene right behind me was a guy who kept repeating everything everyone said.. OMG lol I suppose all sorts of peeps are going somewhere... So had my ct scan today and the weirdest thing happend,, you know they have to give you contra (die) and it usually makes you hot all over well today was really weird because even the palms of my hands felt like they were on fire.. he said since I get this at least 4 times a year its gonna act weird sometimes plus might have something to do with my chemo..anyway we are on our way early tomorrow to head for calif....Have a great day (eve)!!!

well its Monday and I think I am all packed for the trip. Its soooooooooo cold I cant think yet..lol.. Bus leaves at 11 and I think I get there at 7:30. Hope we dont hit much snow on the pass or else I will be a basket case when I get to the coast. Ct scans are scheduled for tomorrow morning.. wish me luck...Have a great day!!

what a lousy nite of sleeplessness!!! Mike was snoring, I hate being a lite sleeper with insomnia...I did watch a show that was older about this woman names Gerry Rogers with BC..It really made me feel better which sounds awful to see someone else be so scared and crying but she said alot of the same things that I say...I am on my off week of chemo and sometimes I really question whether this is doing any good or worth it or what, I guess its selfish to question it when I say I am going to do everything I can and I am truly thankful for all the support in my life, maybe its just that I am tired but sometimes I am literally "tired" of it all...oh well hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.. I hope you have a great day!!

Has anyone watched that movie with Nicholas Cage "National Treasure" its actually pretty good. We watched it last nite..Getting ready for trip.. Getting really excited to see everyone especially Calif peeps but sure not looking forward to the traveling part.. I love trips if I can fly everywhere lol...Got down to about 13 last nite.. its only 28 now... at least got smarter and left the faucet dripping so its not frozen today...Still doing good as far as the hand/foot syndrome on the Xeloda, hands are really numb but so far so sores or blisters except around finger nails and a couple of problem spots on bottom of feet but not as bad as I expected...My friend gave me some great socks that has gel on sole of them, it really makes your feet soft and since I dont have bathtub to soak it really helps...Have a great day!!!!

I hope everyone had a great turkey day and enjoyed it with lots of family and friends.. Nothing is more special than to be with your family on the holidays.. One of my favorite Christmas' I can remember was when I lived in Little Rock and my sissy and her kids came for the holiday.. The youngest one so wanted snow and guess what, we had more than we could handle was a great time...We had a great dinner tonite at the casino I was soooooo full...then came home and watched a movie.. the postman.. kinda of a slow confusing start but not a bad movie (kevin costner) I think this TMJ is gonna get me with the jaw locking up and earaches...before the ca ever does :( ...as you can probably guess I am not sleeping tonite as its after midnite already.. We are thinking of getting a wood stove for the kitchen since its so cold in there and we have friends who have an extra one.. Thank goodness for friends huh? Too bad I couldnt bottle these hot flashes they are killers... anyway have a great nite :) you are probably sleeping lucky dogs...
