Hello

Sitting on the sofa with griddle. He likes to lay on The back cushions and look out the window and bark at other dogs or stare at squirrels. He will lay there for hours. I had an insomnia night and my stomach is killing me from being bound up from the pain pills so I quit taking them to try and get back to normal. My intestines are so out of whack. Ugh. I wish these tumors would hurry up and shrink. As I sit and sip my carnation instant breakfast, I am wondering if I can walk down the street. I need a walk. I will wait on les to get back from boot camp. Yesterday was hard. Guy came and took me on a car ride yesterday. We went by his parents because they were having an estate sale and he needed to close up. I walked in the kitchen and just wept. Guys mom passed away in December and I loved her. When I saw her kitchen ripped apart it killed me. Ginny wAs always There cooking. Not just supper but huge amounts of food for the homeless, for dialysis patients, for sick people, for lots of people. One time I helped Doc Tuttle out when he locked his keys in the car and Ginny roasted me a chicken to thank me. Ginny made the best chicken salad on the planet and she made these cheese wafers that were the bomb.you just can't know what i am saying until you have one. But she is gone and I had to say goodby yesterday. I know this sale was hard for the whole family. Anyways, today is a new day, we are going to Sprint Corporate here so Les can get her laptop fixed at the it dept and then I am not sure what the day holds. Wed. I am getting Riki to prepare for chemo on Thursday
Ok have a great day
Ps I am not this retarded but this iPad is hard to type on and I have not figured out how to turn off the feature that suggests and substitutes words. So irritating!

  1. Have you been taking Senecot and Colace to combat the binding up caused by the pain and anti-nausea pills? The really do work marvelously.

  4. Hi Ellen! I just caught up on your posts and I'm so happy you've had some good food and time with your friends. I didn't watch Black Swan because I heard it was dark and weird. Good to know I made the right decision. The Fighter was one of the best movies I've ever seen. Just about anything Markie Mark does is wonderful. I'm sorry Ginny is gone but I am very happy that she was a beautiful part of your life. anyone that can make perfect cheese wafers is a GEM! I'll be praying for you to feel good today and for your chemo on Thursday and I'm so happy Leslie is back! xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

  5. Colace plus hot drinks and if you can walk even a little bit that helps. I am sorry about ginny. Sounds like you have great memories.
