A brisk, perfect day

Sheila and I were back at the Merritt today for breakfast, made a stop and then returned home while I interviewed a person to clean our place. We headed to Walnut Creek way early, ate lunch at an incredible pan-asian restaurant across the street from Kaiser. It was hard to decide what to eat, every single thing on the menu looked wonderful.

When we arrived at the infusion center and met today's infusion nurse, Anne, I mentioned to Anne that we would like to be able to set up my laptop and watch a DVD on it with earbuds. She found us the perfect spot, and once the chemo was started Sheila and watched (and enjoyed) The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, but before too long the infusion was finished and we packed up to go home.

During our stay in the infusion center Anne came to us with a big smile and a big shopping bag and offered me a choice of handmade scarves. Nice volunteers knitted and crocheted beautiful pieces, and the one I chose was the loudest one of the bunch. . . .about a yard long, narrow, and the yarn is wild. It looks like a snake with strands of hair and ribbons throughout in shades of purple, green, blue, yellow, mostly purple. I am wearing it around my neck and plan to make a habit of it.

I feel wonderful and strong. Pray for continued good health.
