Hi everyne :) Hope you are all doing ok. Managed to get some jobs one. I'm now dead on my wheels :p Sending you all big huggs Jackie xxxxxxxxxxxx:grouphug::grouphug::grouphug:

:grouphug: Howdy everyone! It is another cloudy icky day here. The highlight of the day was watching my neighbor get a couple of new windows installed...in the rain.:rolleyes: Other than that I've napped or been on the computer.

Holly, :hug: I struggle with the same feelings about Christmas preparations and celebrations. It started when my Grandma passed away 14 years ago on Dec. 13th. Talk to your family and scale things back if you need to. We did and still keep it quiet and focused on the true reason for the season. ;)

Jackie :hug: I hope you are resting those wheels!

Vonn, Fin, Barb, Sox, Tkrik... :grouphug:

My mom was like Sarah, you have so much on your plate.. to be coming to sit with me.. but if you are sure you have the time.. I appreciate you coming to be with me. Think she is way nervous.. well we all are... dad has been ok, but lately very week and tired out... hoping no more cancer about!

I work the night shift tomorrow 3-11pm.... blah but then off wednesday and thursday.. hugss all, sarah (oh snow snow snow in forecast ahhhhhh)

Thank you for your prayers!
 

Tina did well with the surgery!! :) It lasted 4 1/2 hours and the doctor thinks he got it all. He's 80% sure it was just the lump and the spot on her tongue. He's sending it for biopsy to make sure it hasn't spread to the lungs. In 20% of people it does I guess.

She'll have radiation treatments to her neck and if it's in the lungs, one round of chemo. If it's only in the neck, then he said it should be 100% cured with the radiation.

She didn't need a trachiotomy or a feeding tube. He said she's young and strong so she should recover well.

Since he had to remove a lot of muscle from her neck, she'll need physical therapy to regain use of her shoulder.

Thank God she's going to be ok. I'm hopeful that she's in the 80% group. :)

:grouphug:

Wiz - That is good news!!! I am glad to hear that. I will keep her in my prayers for a speedy recovery AND that she is in that 80%.:hug:

Wiz, I'll keep praying for Tina. :hug: Hopefully they caught this early enough before it spread.

Sarah, :hug: Praying your dad gets a good report!

Wiz,
glad to hear she did well...prayers for a quick recovery and good news from the biopsy:hug:

We are in Tennessee. Barb, I hear ya! I must have seen at least three deer dead on the highway. Two were together, bless their hearts. I also saw a small grey kitten in the middle of the lanes (the grass area) and that about tore me up. I just know the little thing tried to get to the other side. I hope it did.

Other than that, he trip was smooth sailing. I am glad we left early.

I'll update soon. :hug:

Good Morning!

Wiz, I'm so glad things went well with the surgery. I'm still praying that all the tests come back OK.

Sandy, I'm glad ya'll made it safely. Hey, you're not that far from me now! Hope the trip back home is good.

Pam, the rain is here with us today. All day storms predicted. I love a rainy day, though, so it's okay with me.

I'm still half asleep so please excuse any typos I make. :o Everyone have a good day! :grouphug:

Wiz, glad her surgery went well. Still praying. :hug::hug:

Holly, :hug::hug:

Sandy, glad you guys made it safly there.

Morning everyone. Sipping coffee trying to wake up.

Supposed to rain/snow today, so will probably concentrate on some cleaning today - inside.

Take care everyone, :grouphug::grouphug:
