I am doing ok. I finished my fifth round of chemo a week ago. I have been fighting a cold all week this week, which of course always manages to go into my chest. So, I spend a lot of time coughing. Needless to say it really takes the steam out of me. I am afraid that by the time I start feeling better, it will be time for my next round of chemo. I guess that wouldn't be a bad thing. I would hate to feel this bad and have a chemo treatment at the same time.
After my next round of chemo, I will have a break. I am ready for it. Every round seems to be a little harder on me. Then, I will have more tests and maybe some radiation.
I have really been wanting to do some crafting, but I can't seem to get up enough energy to do anything. So I spend a lot of time perusing other blogs. I have accumulated a lot of good ideas. There are a lot of creative people out there. Thank God for the internet or I would be spending my days on the couch watching reruns of old sitcoms.
My grandbabies are getting so big. I can hardly believe how fast they grow. Josh will soon graduate from preschool. He is so excited he will be in kindergarten next year. Then he will really be a big man on campus. Olivia is almost 9 months old. It seems like just yesterday I was at the hospital watching them weigh and measure her. She has learned to pat-a-cake and she is even trying to say it. It comes out something like paw-ta, paw-ta .... She is so funny.
Here are a few pictures since I don't have anything else to post.
Have a good day everyone.

Hi - I have just found your blog so have "dropped in" to say hi! Sorry to hear you haven't been well lately and hope you get rid of your cold soon. Your grandhildren look so cute.
I think about you every time I go to check my blog comments to see if you have been feeling well enough to be online! I continue to pray that the treatments are working, but not too hard on you. Take care ~Natalie
Hi Joyce,
I'm sorry to hear that you've been ill. I hope you're better by now. Forget about crafting for now. Enjoy life and your grandchildren. They grow up so fast!
Aloha!
Hi Joyce,
Thank you for your sweet comments.
I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling bad, too. And with chemo to deal with on top of it...ugh.
Hot tea with honey has helped with the irritating cough, but like you, it goes into my chest. For that I have to break out the Robitussen.
I hope you feel better soon!
And I've been doing the same as you...puttering around blogland, since I don't have the energy for much else.
Kimberly :)
