Oh! I forgot to mention the most exciting news! I went out yesterday and bought a brain! Yes! A brain! I was tired of forgetting everything, so I bought a little digital voice recorder. Now that short term memory thing that chemo destroyed isn't going to bother me anymore - as long as I remember to put this thing in my pocket every morning.

More excitement! One of the gals from my online support group is coming to stay with us for a couple days. She'll be in town for a job interview, but extended her stay to meet her friends in Arizona. Very excited! We pick her up at the airport tonight.
