Dad is all hooked up and is just starting the first of 4 chemicals today. He's doing fine...felt good this morning...insisted on hanging on to my arm, walking me to my car door...our driveway was really icy this morning. Somehow I thought it would be worse if HE fell instead of me...but I guess he thought otherwise. Then when we got here this morning, he insisted on carrying all our gear for the day...his computer, our little cooler with our lunch, and my tote bag with the newspaper and a book.
So he's off in Benadryl la-la land right now so that helps pass the time for him. I'm sure as he drifted off he had visions of last night's webcam where Delia gave her "go Grandpa go" cheer and 2 thumbs up! He got a real kick out of that!
While he's sleeping, I'm going to head to the grocery store just across the street and get a few things for a quick and easy dinner tonight. The view out the window here is really pretty with the field covered with snow. There are a few sets of deer tracks, it looks like....and if we're lucky, we'll see the fox that sometimes is seen around the trees. I'll post later on today to keep you updated.

I'm seeing a common solution to a few things here:
ReplyDeleteRecommendation for ice: salt
Recommendation for waking Dad up: smelling salts
Recommendation for dinner: Culver's salty fries
Recommendation for when Dad destroys cancer: a trip to a Salt Dogs baseball game
Go, Grandpa, Go!
He told me about all the pics Sarah posted..love them...and from a business associate/friend of his, I could come up with a few good captions for one or two of the pics!! Thinking of you, Leo!!!
ReplyDeleteHow about Salt Springs, Matt?! Can't forget that one!
ReplyDeleteor how about that he is an "Old Salt" ex-sailor....
ReplyDeleteLeo:
ReplyDeleteGood luck today - hope all goes well!
Instead of continuing the Salt theme, perhaps it would be more appropriate to discuss a Culvers theme and the many good thing they have there in addition to the salty fries. Hot fudge sundae anyone?
I'm pretty sure it was two thumbs up, followed by a meditation on "thumbs up, thumbs to the side, thumbs down, thumbs up..." and so on. You never know what your going to get with Miss Delia!
ReplyDeletehaha she's like a box of chocolates...
