Happy Monday

We went to visit Gary's folks today, I really like there new house I think they will be very happy there. Last week we found out that the medication MD Anderson had me taking didn't work so we are going to start chemo again after Thanksgiving. I have been feeling pretty tired but that is nothing new. I was disappointed last week when they said the medication didn't work and that the tumors had gotten worse, our best bet now is to hope that the chemo therapy will reduce the tumors.
I have been trying to work on my sewing room there are several projects I need to finish and I am hoping to have them done by the second week of Christmas. Gary has been working on getting our yard winterized it is starting to feel like fall is ending and winter is about to rush in...
I can't believe that Thanksgiving is only two weeks away it just amazes me how fast time fly by...
Well that is it for tonight...Hugs To All

Okay were starting fresh

I have been working on a quilt that is two years in the making thank goodness my friend doesn't know about it or she would think I am crazy......I am quilting it by machine in a feather stitch, it is turning out pretty nice.
I'll take a picture of it tomorrow when it is finished.
California is in a state of emergency, there are wild fires every where, it is so sad so many homes are lost and the wild life is suffering, horses are scared and don't have any where to go. My sisters home is very close to the fires, she hasn't had to evacuate yet but it's close. Shelena say's the sky's are so black and the santa anna winds have been horrible. Gary and I were talking and we decided that we need to have a fire box with our wedding pictures and family photo's in it since for us those can't be replaced...So if I only had five minutes to pick-up and leave I will grab our dogs, our fire box and a change of clothing...I hope all of you have a beautiful day....

Happy Monday

Hi all, were here in Houston, we arrived yesterday, the flight was good if not a little crowded. We arrived at our Hotel to discover that it wasn't what we wanted if we had been in our 20's it would have been different it was clean and serviceable but just not what we had in mind so we called around to the other hotels that house MD patients and we were able to get a very nice room at the Holiday Inn Select for the same price, this room is lovely and a great place to stay for any length of time...Today we had our intial visit and a group of doctors will get together tomorrow to discuss my case and will go back at 3:30 for the dispostion with Dr Kavaughna, so hopefully we will have some good news.... So will check in tomorrow....Huggles Tina

We had some bad news four weeks ago, my cancer has spread to my lungs and it is multiplying, it has also spread to the vulva area, I just finished 15 days of radiation and Gary and I leave for MD Anderson in Houston on Sunday we are going there for a second opinion so say some prayers for us. Not much else has been going on we are all staying out of trouble and trying to keep our minds active and busy so we don't worry to much....

Saturday Night


Well it's been a couple of weeks since I last wrote, I'm doing great, just a little tired and I am looking forward to my week break from chemo therapy. We will be leaving for the east coast on Monday with Ron and Georgene, I am looking forward to our trip and visiting with old friends. Our niece Amy is living with us right now, I just love having her here with us she is sweet and funny and a good cook. Gary has been very busy at work it seems this summer he has been away from home more than normal.
I have taken a break from reading the past couple of day's, I am getting ready to read Nicholas Sparks Autobiography I am going to take it with me on vacation and I am trying to teach myself how to knit a scarf, Penni sent me a wonderful kit last year for my birthday and I am still working on the flower scarf I am making hopefully by the time winter arrives I will have it completed.
The dogs are trying to stay out of trouble but for Blueto it is hard trouble follows him where ever he goes, but oh he is just so cute....We had a nice 4th of July, we went over to the Karst family annual 4th of July Picnic and had a great time eating all the great food and watching all the fireworks that everyone set off and then we watch Blue Springs professional display which was nice but past years have been better, It rained for half the day so I think the Fire Works must have gotten damp....
Our vegetable garden is just beautiful we had our first BLT's tonight with green fried tomatoes which were just yummy. I also made a nice cucumber salad that was very yummy. Not much else has been going on... Huggles Tina

Sunday Afternoon

It's a beautiful day on the home front the weather is perfect. We have had a nice weekend we really haven't done much but that's okay my energy level is low right now. I went to the gym three times this week and walked on the tread mill and did a little weight lifting.
Yesterday we went to a Pizza shop in Liberty and had Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza it was yummy!!! then we came home and watched a movie, Monster House it was great, I love animation.
Monday is chemo so I won't be doing much for the next couple of day's.
I'm still working on my butterfly quilt and I need to start quilting the smaller quilt I was working on for my friend. I think tonight Amy and I are going to a free concert in the park here in Blue Springs it should be a nice evening for it. Well I'll write more later.. Hugs Tina
