Brief update

It's Tuesday evening, and Val has had two days of less pain than she had on Sunday. We don't understand why, and we're not wondering, just accepting. She's not leaping tall buildings, but she did drive up to Deluca's for supper ingredients and prepped the veg for our usual pasta dish. Wonderful.

It's a bit busy around here: Chester had his annual shots yesterday. Holly may have a minor bladder irritation. I had a very short stomach upset Monday morning that was resolved by class time (1pm). I'm having my teeth cleaned Wednesday afternoon. Thursday Linda is coming to clean the house (blessings on her!). The weekend will see us (me?) tidy the basement in advance of the new furnace being installed on Wednesday (remember that service call a while back? yup - the heat exchanger has cracks in it. time to bring in a new one. sigh). Monday I take the car in for winter tires and an oil change. Tuesday Val has an appointment to see the radiation oncologist (we weren't expecting this so soon; will know more once we see him) and then we'll roll our way into the Thanksgiving long weekend. Then Val has chemo session #3 on Oct. 17. Good grief - pretty soon it will be November. Oh my goodness.
Fall on Lake Winnipeg

In the meantime, we've enjoyed a couple of lovely fall days. I wore sandals again today. Lovely.
