Second Gamma Knife

Well, I had my second gamma knife treatment yesterday, seemed to me it went well. It was a long day I got there a little after 7 AM and didn't leave until about 6:30 PM, but it wasn't bad. There were only 3 of us having treatment, but there were about 6 or 7 friends and family with the other two and everyone was real nice, so it was almost like a big party out in the waiting room! We all had a pretty good time I think. In fact there was one man who was a retired drywaller - so that was interesting, the two of us talked for a long time. I enjoyed it, it's been awhile since I've been around people in the construction field, so it was like old home week! It was also real nice having a long conversation about something unrelated to illnesses, which unfortunately is what most of us have in common!

I'm feeling real good, even my hip (a little arthritis) is feeling pretty good today - so hey life is good! Even the snow has let up for a little bit, we probably have around 8" here - varies by where in town you are, actually it can even vary by which side of the street you're on. That one I haven't figured out yet, seems like at least the roof and the middle of the yard would have some, even if wind was keeping it away from the edge of the house, but no - one side of the street can have nothing. You would never even know it snowed unless you looked to the other sid of the street! I'll have to ask Neil about that one, maybe they studied it in meteorology class.

I went to the grocery and unknowingly dropped a glove, luckily someone turned it in - it's entirely too cold for a gal from Florida to go out without gloves! I had only gone next door which is why I didn't put them on and therefor notice it was missing, but when I got ready to go out, I saw it was gone! I got real lucky I hadn't gone far and someone turned it in! I was trying to figure out where I could get some gloves close by - Starbucks doesn't carry them and neither does the grocery! :-). I would have been out of luck! Well frozen is actually what I would have been! But alas, I got lucky :-).

This is a great afternoon, have time to blog and catch up on a few phone calls, and still playing phone tag with a few others! That makes life interesting I guess. I'm realizing now that the holiday movies are over and I've been watching regular programing for a couple of weeks - why we don't have TV at home. I'm getting totally burnt out on it! Luckily I have some good books to read - people think we're crazy not having TV but I just find it to be a huge waste of time for me and after a little while, boring! I guess it's what your use to! Well, I'm going to run, my friend is coming over and we'll probably go to whole foods so that will be fun! Talk to you all later! Thanks for all the prayers and support!
