It's Saturday night and I'm finally finding a moment to write.  On Thursday, I met with Dr Albain and she agreed that things are moving along well so far.  My counts are very good so I got the okay to go to Arizona.  Emily and I take an annual trip to visit her Godmother and my college roommate, Karen.  We had the tickets for a long time so I'm delighted to be going.

  I was happy that I made it to the last day of school without a problem!  There is always so much excitement that last week!  It was great to have closure with the kids.  I even made it to both staff gatherings.  You all know how I hate to miss anything.

I must admit that the last two days I have felt more tired and achy than before.  One of the side effects of the white blood count booster is sore bones.  I'm starting to get the idea of what that means.  All in all I still am amazed at how good I feel.  I'm also glad that I have a full head of hair for our trip tomorrow.  No sign of loss yet!  

I wish you all a wonderful week!

Karen

    Karen, Emily and Karen,
    Hope you are having a wonderful visit. You are not missing a thing around here, the weather is pretty bleak. I am forced to iron, since I cannot get out into the yard. 26 blouses to go. Big hi to Scottsdale Karen; I know she is taking good care of you. See you back in the hood -- party weekend!

    Hi Karen, you must be so excited for your trip! It was great to see you at Marta's house last Friday. I'm enjoying my time up in Wisconsin, though it's pretty cold. I envy you the warm weather in Scottsdale. Hopefully we can organize a group for coffee and catching up when you get back:) Amy McFarlane
