Monday Morning...

...and it's a bit cloudy.  The news reader said it was 50% humidity this morning and it's already 87 degrees.  No wonder it's hard to breathe. :)


Jane and Nancy put my new bed together yesterday, and I slept like the proverbial log.  No squeaks or squawks every time I moved!  YAY for Ikea and the MALM bed.  I got it in Birch veneer, and love this particular bed for its clean, minimalist look.  And you have to admit, the price is nothing to sneeze at, either.


I have two more rounds of Xeloda pills before I get my week off.  Four more at dinner tonight and four at breakfast tomorrow.  My hands are starting to feel... strange, but so far, the feet seem to be ok.


Still, the Xeloda pills are not being nice to my tummy.  But, if it's the Xeloda that has put an end to those referral pains, my stomach and I can deal with a little ickiness. :D


So that's my report for today; nothing new, nothing exciting, except for the fact that I still live.  That's pretty exciting. :D


Love, hugs and kisses to all!
