Three down and three to go.....

   Wednesday chemo went pretty well. Thomas and I got to the center around 9am. They drew blood and then we began the chemo. A fill in nurse brung over Tylenol and the Benadryl. I told her I don't take Tylenol and she said are you sure? I told her to go check my chart. I made her show me the milligrams for the Benadryl. My regular nurse Debbie placed the needle in the vein that runs along the inside of my right  forearm. She said it look like a healthy vein. I said, we can try it. It didn't work as good as Debbie thought. Below the needle my arm stayed warm and above the needle it was stayed cold and there was a slight burning. They kept a warm blanket on it, it helped some. But we won't be using that vein again. Thomas and I headed home about 3:30pm. So I have three down and three to go.
   Cindy came by and visited with us, she brung me a bag of goodies. Thomas, Cindy and I had an awesome afternoon we laughed and enjoyed each others company. We got some pictures taken and they turned out great. Sandra stopped by on her lunch hour and said we were having to much fun.
   I felt good enough to do my floral design show at the fair last night. I chose a Christmas theme and all the ladies enjoyed it. It was a bit warm but at least there was a small breeze. A big "thank you" to Derrick for all his help.
  Today is day two and I've felt pretty good. I did start getting tired this afternoon. Heather and I worked on the displays in the show room. We have a fall theme with pumpkins, ghost and fall silks. The Vera Bradley is coming in a little each day. We've already had ladies coming in and making their purchases.
   Hope everybody has a good weekend......stay cool and be safe.
