My port definitely comes out this tuesday. The doctor won't just cut it out in her office so off to outpatient surgery I go. It's too bad because after doing the lesson plans for the sub and getting a day off you would think I would get to do something fun. Alas, it is not to be. I will spend the rest of the day trying to come out of the general anestisia. (spelling?) Oh well, maybe there will be a good movie on TV.
I had a long day at school today. Sometimes you just have to saty and clean up after yourself and reorganize a little . That is what I did today from 1:15 to 5:00 and I could have stayed a lot longer.
Randy is off to a camporee so I need to decide on what excitement I will have this evening. It's a good possibility that I will be working on quilts.

Life is good. School has started and things are going great. I thought it might really wear me out but this year does not feel a lot different than any other year. My hair is about an inch long and I am anxious for it to grow in enough that I can get rid of my hats. I did try wearing my wig to school a couple of days but I didn't like it. I am always tugging at it and by the end of the day I look like an old lady that is wearing her wig a little bit at an angle. It can look pretty ridiculous. We have had a new grand baby this month. What a blessing these new little lives are. This gives us 21 grandchildren, twelve girls and nine boys. Our children are such a blessing and example to us. They work so hard and are raising wonderful families.
We did lose a beloved brother-in-law and uncle this summer. He was a kind man. He is the one who started everyone shaving their head for me. We all miss him.
I have seen the oncologist and the radiation oncologist in the last month. So far everything seems good. I go this week to see the surgeon so that I can have my port removed. It was great to have it for chemo and all the blood tests. It makes things a lot easier and less painful. My blood is all back to normal so that is a a blessing.
We enjoyed seeing Christine and Brigham's new home in Provo. We enjoyed helping them in the yard.
We are excited to go to Ventura in Oct. and see our newest grandchild.
We spent this last weekend at our good friends cabin in Hatch, Utah. Randy caught fish and I went on a great hike and saw some beautiful country.
I really like my life and things are good.
