Catching up

Our view from the window has changed from last year - we are on the front side of the building so that hopefully Jack will have less to monitor out the window if he can't sleep.

Jack had his line put in on Thursday and has had much less trouble with that process than he did last year. The line is smaller and even though it was uncomfortable for a few days, it was nothing that a couple of Tylenol couldn't handle.

Friday was a rainy dreary day so we talked the doctors out of a baseline test and just hung around the apartment for the day.

Saturday we took a ride up to New Hampshire and had lunch at a little place near Hampton Beach. Jack's fish and chips were "the best he ever had". Hopefully this will help break him of his chain restaurant preference.

Also we spent the evening enjoying some great football! Yea Pats!

Sunday was the day for the haircut, so we are ready for tomorrow (chemo begins). ( On our way back from the haircut as we walked by Symphony Hall, we ran into Deb Ryan and her family - it is a small world!)

They are forecasting about 12" of snow for tomorrow into Tuesday so our mile and a half commute should be fun!!

Hey, Jack & Cheryl, I'm going to try this again. First time in, I couldn't remember my name & password. Too many of these things to remember. Oh, well. I'm glad that you were able to get started with your routine. Nice view from the apartment.

Bowling was horrible for me last Thursday. We won two points and are still in 1st place by 8 points. I don't know if you have the website for the league stats, so here it is. http://www.leaguesecretary.com/LeagueFiles.aspx?LID=2250&IFTID=1

Football was good this weekend, despite the Patriots winning. Good for you, keeps the wife happy! Go Chargers, and Go Packers!!!

Jackie says, Hey! We're thinking about you and wishing you the best!

Jack, you're looking GREAT! I hope everything went well today. I'll be calling you later.

Donnie is going to be a millionaire. He just got back from Las Vegas where his new company just won BEST OF CONSUMER ELECTRONIC SHOW WINNERS IN EACH CATEGORY 2008 (From Cnet.com)
Car tech and GPS
Azentek builds a PC for your car
All of the core features we want in car technology--GPS navigation, Bluetooth cell phone integration, and audio and media playback--can be handled by a PC, so Azentek is offering two new in-dash PCs, the Atlas CPC-1200 and the Calypso CPC-1100.

I can't wait, coz I've been sifting through my receipts for tax deductions so I can get some money back from Uncle Sam's coffers.

Maybe Donnie'll send me some of the cash he owes me now!

Love you both,
Mary
