We have had company lately. Last week a couple from our RV days stopped in town to see us. They are still full time RVers and have been traveling all summer. It was great to see Margie and Edmund. Last Saturday and Sunday we got to visit with another RV friend. Shari is a single gal who has been full timing for 12 years. She parked her rig in our driveway and we shared memories of the good old days. We are very glad to be settled in Buena Vista but we sure did enjoy those RV days.
My sister will come visit toward the end of the month, from TN.
Yesterday and today we have been making applesauce. We got a whole bunch of apples from a friend's trees. This morning after peeling more apples, Doug got a pretty bad cramp in his hand. The cramp has been bothering him off and on all day. The only thing that helps is a heating pad. We are wondering if the cramp is connected to his chemo, but we don't know.
We have another project too. The recumbent exercise bike we ordered finally came - in about a thousand pieces. We have been putting it together and will finish tomorrow.
Next week we go to Denver for the chemo and a Zometa infusion. We have some questions for the specialist. We found out that the lymph node in Doug's neck is in fact myeloma. I think it is pretty unusual for myeloma to go to lymph nodes; I can't find mention of it. We need to know what is the significance of this.
We can see the fall colors begin on the mountains - bright yellow aspens against the dark green pines. Just beautiful.
Love to all.
