The Weekend and Beyond.

10/26/21

So this morning I had to be at chemo at ten AM.  In a monsoon.   Alan had a family commitment and had to leave the house really early so I am alone today. 

 Before I left, I had to check the sump pump which thankfully is happily pumping out water. As i was driving away I realized that i never texted our cleaning lady that we wouldnt be home today so she is pissed.   I forgot to put on my numbing cream and its not in my bag so they will have to numb my port with ice before stabbing me with needles.  I told them they really should keep a tube of that stuff around for people who forget. I did not have a very comfortable weekend.  

I did have a good weekend though.  Mark invited us to lunch after services, ( he loves having people over and is an excellent and creative cook) with Alan’s cousins and Carmen, a lovely woman from Columbia who is my age but looks much younger.  We went to Moody Street to this Indian market that is huge with produce and just any kind of food you can imagine.  Everyone shops there.  Too bad I couldn’t think of much I needed. 

 Julie G came over on Sunday with bagels, cream cheese, lox, a big fruit plate and hard boiled eggs She stayed and had brunch with us which was lovely. Unfortunately I was participating in the bathroom Olympics and I got a medal for frequency and speed   It was not fun
