Marcus braved the traffic for the first OSU home game of the season to come see me today. They already had the streets closed off at 9:00 AM but he made it through somehow. He keeps spoiling me too by stopping down in the Lobby at the Cheryl Cookie store on his way up to my room. This morning it was raspberry muffins & a pumpkin spice cake with cream cheese icing. As if my swelling from all the fluids is not enough I am going to be big as a house.
We had a good visit but the game had started so I sent him to the clubhouse to watch it. I know he would of sat with me but he needs to get away & take some time for himself too.
Misty told me the color I picked out for the foyer & stairwell is turning out beautiful, Jan Wolverton & her crew are paining it for me, I had it planned before all this happened so I cannot wait to see what it looks like when its finished. I will finally be able to hang the pictures up in the stairwell.
I fell asleep halfway through the OSU game & woke up to see they won it but it sure wasn't pretty. It is going to be a long season this year I think. The rest of my night didn't go much better. I had a had time getting comfortable, I am so bloated from the fluids That it makes my upper abdomen hurt real bad no matter how I sit or lay. The Dr.s did cut back some of the fluids in half except the Chemo. Tonight we have Cytarabine 24/7 only for Chemo so that may help with this bloating & pain since the other 2 chemo drugs are done until the next go round, we will see.
My Dad is supposed to come up & see me from Lima tomorrow, he hates hospitals, understandably so - my mother died in one a long time ago so I do not know how he is going to handle seeing me like this. MSgt Drake & his wife are also planning on coming up sometime tomorrow afternoon as well. I am looking forward to both of these visits.
My hemoglobin has started to drop so they are watching that, I may have to get some infused later tonight or tomorrow we shall see. They said my levels would start dropping with the Chemo.

Sentimental Journey
2010 Family Pics
Moments in Time
Quotes
~~~~~~~
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body but, rather, to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOoHOo! What a ride!!"
~~~~~~~
Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.
~~~~~~~
Take risks: if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wiser.
~~~~~~~
If you are never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
~~~~~~~
Ask yourself: "What have I missed out on simply because I was too afraid of what others would think?"
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
I'd rather have 30 seconds of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count; it's the life in your years.

Hi Babe, taking the kids to the libery this morning. I hemmed a pair of Zacks' little jeans this morning. Just doing laundry and going to the store this morning. As you well know trying to find things for lunch for Zacky is a challenge. Friday I sent pudding and apple sause with him.....but only one spoon....he came home and told me he threw the apple sause away because he had only one spoon. Needless to say I will now send two spoons !!!! Everyone is fine, oh no they are not....Brandon has Strept again. Hummingbird cake is on the way tomorrow.....enjoy your day with your Dad....Much Love....Misty
