It has been ages since I have written. Time sure flies when you aren't paying attention. Right now we are in the midst of the cold and flu season at school and at our house. I was sick for four weeks and now Steven has come down with a nasty bug. He has had horrible fevers. I think he is perking up a bit now. No fevers today at least.
I am happy to report that I have finished all my chemo and I have had two and a half weeks of radiation already. I only have four more weeks. I will definitely take radiation over chemo. So far the only draw back has been the daily regiment of cold breezes, but you can ignore just about anything if you try hard enough.
Andrew pulled out one of my old smelly wigs the other day for crazy hair day and dress as your favorite person day. He wore the wig both days and was mistaken for a girl! It must be those long eyelashes. He is doing really good in school. He has 129 accelerated reading points and he is comes home daily with the giggles--which he can't explain. He just breaks down laughing his head off at something he remembers hearing at school from friends. Somehow it is always at the dinner table.
Tomorrow Steven gets to give out a bunch of books he won from scholastic. I think he said there were over 500 books. He was one of seventeen people who won this grant out of over 20,000 applications. So, he and Mrs. Perry, his co-teacher, invited the newspaper and the TV reporters and the assorted charities they chose to give the books to make a party of it. Sometimes I can't believe how lucky he is. At Christmas he won a Wii and in the past he has won lots of other things. I am seriously thinking of convincing him to play the lottery.
Here is another cool video. I have always wanted to visit some lighthouses. I think it all goes back to Pet's Dragon. http://videos.komando.com/2009/02/03/
