Holidaze

I hope everyone has been been enjoying the holidays.
Thanks very much for the cards, calls and warm thoughts. It means a lot. Really.
Funny too, I must be getting older because I enjoyed reading the cards more than ripping open a present.

We decorated the house sparingly this year. And the majority of what we did, was done by Susan, without any help from me. It was she that went out to buy a tree. Not only did she buy an awesome tree, it's huge! - she bought it during my last chemo session (after dropping me off at the drs.) and carried that bad boy into the house by herself and set it up in the stand! She wanted to surprise me so that when I came home after the treatment, a tree would be already be set up in the living room. Pretty damn cool.

Didn't feel well on my Bday; couldn't eat, nauseous, extremely tired. Spent the am on the couch and the rest of the day & night in bed. But very happy to say I felt better Christmas morning. After feeding the creatures and taking a shower, I ventured out into the garage and decided to climb Mt. WallofXmasBoxes. I wanted to find the Christmas stockings and hang them up. I asked for guidance as I climbed up the ladder and stared at the wall of boxes - attack from the left side or the right? I went left and found the stockings after only pulling down 3 boxes!

It turned out to be a very nice Christmas.
