Weekend Hangover

Has this been a busy weekend or what?!?!

*Three trips to the quilt show (14 miles from my house)

*Surprise visit (well surprise for Vann and Sophie; I knew she was coming) from our daughter Amy who lives in Portland, Oregon

*Father's Day dinner of crock pot barbecue, beans, and slaw

*Visit from our friends Horace and Shakey this morning. They stopped by on their way to Wyoming. They just left.

Is that all? I think that's all for now. We have chemo this afternoon. The last treatment made Vann feel so bad for so long; we're really not looking forward to this one.

I hope all of you had a great Father's Day, either spending time with your father or a father you love. My own dad passed away in 1977, and I've missed him every day of my life since then. Vann's dad lives in south Georgia. He spoke to him by phone, as he does every morning.

Gotta go now. Working on some quilt blocks.

My best to you and special healing & strength to Vann this day, to start of with extra support. I really liked your comment on Nicole's blog today, too.

You certainly have been busy. I hate that the chemo makes Vann feel so bad, but hopefully it is kicking "cancer butt". That cumulative impact is rough.

Your dinner sounds delicious. Are there leftovers? ;-)

I hope and pray this chemo won't be as hard on him! God will give him strength to see him through, and you too!

Hugs and blessings as this is the day after the chemo. I hope the internal effects wipe out the bad cells without laying Vann low.

Speaking of Father's Day, we got Rob two "holey" grill pans at Bed, Bath, and Beyond and he is really pleased with them. Both are non-stick and one is similar to a cookie sheet but with three low sides so your spatula has a "back stop"! The other is a skillet. The holes let the heat thru, but are small so the little stuff (like shrimp) doesn't slip thru and into the fire. The two together were only $17.

Now you slow down enough for your soul to catch up with your body, as my Grandma used to say!!

More hugs!
