What are you doing right now?

[Haplo]

Scared to death it'll take Dreigha too...if Diabetes and other things don't get her fist

[Perfect Warrior]

& three of my grandparents. Funnily mom's the one who lost only one parent to the disease. Dad's the one who lost both, and he's fine, even though he's five years older than mom. (Knocks furiously on wood. He does have heart problems.)

[Haplo]

& mom's cancer is stage 3. She's getting both chemo and radiation.

I recall on the old board my F! Cancer thread was quite a downer for some people, and they avoided my posts. Should I start a 'F! mom's cancer' thread and not mention it in this thread for such people?

Wherever you put it, I'll gladly shout F! Cancer. It took both my father and mother in law

LOL! Daughter's interview, Haplo?

She was hired and her first day was yesterday. Going to be rough on me and Dreigha while she's in training since we have to take her in and then go back in for my shift. Training is 8-5 and my shift is 1-midnight

LOL! Daughter's interview, Haplo?

[Coolwater]

If anyone would understand overdoing it, those folks should!

[Haplo]

Hap, what happened? Warrior, I'm very glad to hear it.

Reaching my 40s is what happened. I'm farsighted so need reading glasses when I don't have good light

[Perfect Warrior]

I'm playing hooky today. I RSVP'd the Stem Cell Transplant Reunion I would go, and I didn't. Printed out the bus route transfer map, laid out my clothes, set the alarm clock, but didn't go. I did too much Wednesday (lunch with dad and chores after a doctor's appointment) and am still sore. The luncheon and the speakers after itself I could have talked myself into, but it's an hour each way on the bus. That extra two hours was the nope point, really. It's a free lunch that includes a guest, and I couldn't get anyone to go with me, and thus hitch a ride with them. (Cancer research is a topic not a lot of people are keen to listen to, I do understand.)

Mom's appointment at the Cancer Centre is Tuesday.

Trees! Hi Trees!

[Coolwater]

Stoppit! It hurts your head.

[Haplo]

Picking my insurance for the next year and hating that I need to add vision

[~mj~]

Grinding my teeth

[ArtisticTrees]

Procrastinating writing budget lists and inventory for school, but at least my middle school grades are done.

[Haplo]

It went well. She had the interview with my manager and her sister's manager so surely was talked to about us. Tomorrow she should get sent for the drug test which will be the clincher. She might be 20 but doesn't do any drugs and hasn't even tried pot as far as I know.

[Haplo]

May your blood only say good things, Warrior! When is the second interview, Hap?

Second interview is this Thursday at 11..so once again I'm coming in 2 hours early. On the plus side, work is giving out free ice cream on Thursday

[Perfect Warrior]

May your blood only say good things, Warrior! When is the second interview, Hap?

Yup, ny oncologist is very happy with it. She also says that at this point it's statistically unlikely the fast-growing cancer will relapse. (They're's still the ugly issue of the slow-growing. I had two kinds at once, dang it.)

What I'm doing right now? I'm doing a stack of laundry. Sheets, towels, t-shirts. & I'm doing this on a +30C day. Sitting mere meters from the running dryer. Sometimes I just don't think these things through in advance.

[Haplo]

May your blood only say good things, Warrior! When is the second interview, Hap?

I haven't heard yet. Hopefully she'll find out today so I can see if I'll have to make a special trip

[Coolwater]

[Coolwater]

Good! That's better than being relieved she's gone!

[Haplo]

Working as usual. Youngest daughter had her interview today and it went well. Now it's time to do an online assessment and then 2nd interview

[Perfect Warrior]

Bloodwork this afternoon, thus I'm on the computer earlier than usual.

[Haplo]

Starting another week at work and bracing myself for Dreigha visiting her oldest daughter for a few days. I admit I don't like her being gone..it feels like I've lost an arm for a while

There HAS to be a special place in hell for people who drop chewed gum on the ground and walk away, leaving it for someone else to step in.
