A Step

We foiled the weatherman today and had an absolutely beautiful day. The sun even peeked out a few times (it's shining bright right now). But no rain. So Nancy and I got the biggest of the damaged steps replaced. The rest will get replaced when I get more mortar (I underestimated) and make a cut in the other stone. We also got a bunch of yard work done, weeding, laying down mulch, mowing the front lawn and I even made five pounds of Armenian cheese (yum). And I got up to BCC first thing this morning to visit some good friends and catch up a bit. All in all a good day.

I'm feeling good, eating well. Tomorrow is the official end of my last cycle of chemo, and I suppose all the bad chemicals have now left my system. I'm tempted to say good riddance, but in truth they probably saved my life. But, regardless, I won't miss them. Everyone tells me the radiation is much easier than chemo, and I'm all for that. So now I have a couple of weeks where I can forget about cancer and and just do the things I would normally do: work around the house, visit friends and family, go out a bit, drive Nancy crazy. Life is good.
