Mission complete

My youngest son, I’m afraid, is going to have a rude awakening this evening (and tomorrow).  He thoroughly enjoyed the weekend…stayed up late; ate badly; rocked out to guitar hero (that game is more difficult than it looks).  Unfortunately for my son, though, he’s back home now and house rules are back in place.  I think he’ll sleep well tonight, though…he was a busy boy this weekend.

Today was fun.  We went apple picking in Indy (actually, I went apple eating; my son and sister-in-law did the picking).  If the old saying (an apple a day keeps the doctor away), I am good for the next week and a half.  He also picked out a pumpkin which he first carved and then smashed (I think he was taking the rock star thing too seriously — obscure reference to the group “Smashing Pumpkins”).

Health wise, I’m doing okay.  I am really tired, so I think I will be going to sleep pretty early myself.  I am not entirely sure why I am tired; I slept really well last night and even took a — <gasp> — nap this afternoon, yet I’m still tired.  Hmm, maybe it’s this whole cancer thing?!?!  While I was in the hospital on Saturday, my blood counts were lower than they were last Wednesday, but still okay.  We’ll see what they are like this week.  If I follow the pattern, I’ll be okay this week, but will not be for my treatment next weekend.  Ah the joys of illness.

Cheers,

Merle
