Three weeks down, three to go....

I'm halfway through!  

Tomorrow I will start my fourth week of radiation.  It seems to be moving along pretty fast.  The radiation itself only takes about ten minutes.  I started getting a little bit of a burn on my skin and some swelling under my arms but everything is normal so far.  

Galen and I are trying to make the best of the long trip to and from the hospital.  We usually stop at Starbucks in the morning for coffee and occasionally a breakfast sandwich, and after my radiation we might visit my sister in Chapel Hill, or we might stop somewhere for lunch.  We occasionally will go to the mall bookstore and relax with a good book and a cup of coffee.  

Soon this will be over and I will look back and realize what a really long journey this has been, 

and I might even be amazed how I ever got through it.  

Let's take a drive

It's too hot for a walk today, so we're going for a drive. Destination: the park






We're driving in and around the area of the park and rec center. I thought you might enjoy seeing some of the homes in the neighborhood.

Big beautiful homes.

Arts and Crafts

A Jewish Temple converted into a wonderful home.

Cute little cottages.

Pretty front doors. Red door.

Yellow door.

Blue door.

Pink door.

A little shop that just opened.


Finally, we're at the park! Otis and Riley were wondering if we were ever going to get there.

Run, run, run!

Ok, we're done. Hot and thirsty and ready to go.

On the way home we pass some beautiful crape myrtle trees.

We're home. Oh boy, it's back to the sofa. Must guard the front window.

Enjoy your day!
