This Weekend

As I alluded to earlier this week, tomorrow I will be heading to wooly, forested hills of Gainesville, GA for a full weekend of scout leader training. I will be leaving Casa Hamburger around 5a Friday morning and will likely get back around 6p on Sunday evening. As a result, I will not be updating the blog over the weekend. I did not want anyone to come to the blog, see that I had not posted anything and then wonder / worry whether something had happened.

Today was tough psychologically.  Around mid-morning, for no real apparent reason, my mood began to darken and has essentially remained that way for the remainder of the day (I’m hoping a moderate adult beverage in a moment will help brighten SOME of the darkness).  All things considered, this is the first really down day I have had in over a week, so I am not too concerned.  I did make an appointment with a CDC EAP (Employee Assistance Program) counselor for Monday.  Hopefully he will help put me in contact with a therapist that has experience helping newly diagnosed cancer patients.

I hope you all have a great weekend.   Thank you to everyone who has read my blog; who has commented about my blog (either to me in person or here online); and to those who may or may not have read my blog, but have nonetheless been wonderfully supportive of me.  You all mean a great deal to me and I count myself fortunate to have such good friends.
