Good news update…

My doctor’s office called me yesterday with good news about the CT scan.  Everything is OK, nothing to worry about.  This scan was for something totally unrelated to my cancer.  Thank you to my blogging family for your prayers and kind thoughts.

I just visited Nellie’s blog   http://berriesandmore.blogspot.com/  If you haven’t visited Nellie before, please do.  She is a lovely lady and today she posted a recipe for Pumpkin Bars which I am going to try soon.

Another very foggy morning here at 66 degrees to warm into the 80s again.  I had the air conditioner on last night for  a while.

I am having fun with the iPad2.  I have found lots of helpful info just by googling for it and several calls to Apple support.  I found that one easy way to get pictures on your iPad2 is simply to send them in an email to your iPad.  They can also be synced through iTunes.  I like the email way as I am just moving some of my favorite old photos.  Here is an example of an old photo taken a long time ago.

I am going to lunch today with Sally.  I have posted about her before.  We met through our beautician.  She is my miracle.  She has been in remission from the same kind of cancer that I have for over 2 years now.  She has been a great source of comfort to me these last few months.

I hope this day is good to us all.  Stay safe and be happy!!

Foggy morning…

in Illinois.  It is 65 degrees and supposed to warm to the mid or upper 80s today.  Quite a temperature range for the first day of October. 

I was up bright and early yesterday morning after a restless night.  I had to be at the hospital for a CT scan at 7:45 AM.  I don’t know the results of it yet.  I am hoping and praying that it is OK.

At my doctor visit on Friday afternoon I found out that things were looking normal but I could expect the numbness, soreness and swelling in my cheek. tongue and neck to last for as long as a year or maybe even two.  I thought  what the heck as old as I am I had best just forget the pain and enjoy life.  That is what I am trying to do.

I am having a fun exasperating time with the iPad2.  I have received quite a lot of help from the Apple support system.  This is the first Apple product that I have ever owned.  I now have some of my own music on there and can send emails.  A nice way to spend some time.  Thanks to my Twin for her encouragement and help.

I have on my mind today to work on cleaning out the big closet in my hallway and then tackling the bathroom.  We shall see.

Below is a picture of geraniums still in full bloom at the doctor’s office.  Beautiful!

Have a wonderful day.  Stay safe and be happy!!
