21 minutes until our “New Year’s Eve” Happy Hour. Trying to put a “shell” around the year of 2019 is just impossible. Immediately, Pete’s passing comes to mind. There is nothing left in 2019 that matches that !!! I have tried to stay away from Pete’s passing as I write this BLOG. Once his passing enters my mind, all else is dull. I find myself stopped at the stage of being ready to share something with him and knowing that he is not here. It is “OK” … not really!!! But I certainly cannot change it.
8 minutes to our “happy hour.” ... glass of wine and snacks … the snacks are fixed by the kitchen and are really quite nice.
2020: Dentist Thursday, Jan 2nd … tooth pulled to prevent future problems … at my age, I wonder about such!!! But (three) dentists and Craig say we should do that. Maybe too much consulting!!! Tuesday, Jan 9th … I have my first radiation treatment on the Cancer at the tip of my nose.
(Back to my BLOG … from our NYE Happy Hour!!!)
Yes … the Cancer on the tip of my nose … this phrase sounds like what a writer would create as a storyline so there is no fear raised in the reader!!! From someone who does have a Cancer at the tip of her nose … it seems true and totally ridiculous … I feel like a joke when I say the phrase: cancer on the tip of my nose.
The guess is that I should need 7 to 8 treatments … two a week!!!
I am thinking January for the treatments; February for my nose to heal … when the treatments stop, the cancer finishes its healing from the inside. I am thinking end of February for the healing. Our family “senior” reunion… could then be around the end of February. I would then have my right knee replaced … with my left knee replacement next!!! The knee replacements’ schedule is all speculative ,,, my hip doctor also does knees, so I will use him for my knees … my left hip is great.
At this current time, I have no big occasions in my mind. We shall just have to see … I think of all of you from Louisiana and Webster so much … and miss you!!! I am wishing all of you a most lovely and blessed 2020 … make it healthy and joyful, also!!!
Love y.all … and Happy New Year …
(6 hours and 41 minutes of 2019 still with us!!!)
