Nice

One of my friends sent this to me, I just might try it.

Handle every stressful situation like a dog.

If you can't eat it or play with it,

Just pee on it and walk away.

Cancer Sucks!!!!!

Another Treatment down. Only 2 more and we will have scans done again to check on the progress of these blasted chemicals. Then 4 more treatments & we should be done. I took a picture of Nic Before treatment started, & I took one of him on the way home. My point was to show you all that gray/green hollow look he has once he has finished treatment. It crushes me every time I pick him up from treatment. Such a drastic depressing change. I decided not to post them, because they were taken with my cell phone, so the pictures aren't all that great, and Nic asked me not to. He doesn't like they way it makes him look. I agree, I HATE the way he looks after.

Today's treatment was the worst thus far. When the nurse tried to get blood from his port, she didn't get any. She tried positioning him differently & a few other things. none. She thought maybe some blood had clotted, and gave him a *heparin soak.* she she gave him a shot of that in the port & let it sit for about 10 mins. & still nothing. So, she decided that the port must have been up against the wall of the vein, & took blood from his arm. So that prolonged the length of the treatment. He also had to take a nausea pill at the office. He has never had to do that before. Once the treatment was done, he got another heparin shot. So he now has to be extra careful & try not to bleed. He has been laying down all day. Cassidy & Trent both told me they don't feel good & have been down on the couch. So, we are over using the sanitizer in hopes that Nic doesn't get sick.

Latest cake

On Friday, Kim and I both had cakes to work on. Usually when this happens, we work on them together. They were both for our nieces. I have a picture of the paper plates I was trying to match the cake up with. The orange cake was for my niece's first birthday, that is the one she got to mash. Kim and I got new sample frosting and filling to try, and I must say so far so good!

Shinny frosting

Cinnamon bread

Yesterday, my sitter and friend Kim, had a sick little boy. I called my mom & Nic to pick him up with no luck. So I left work early & went to get him. We then stopped at the store & picked up a few items & then picked up the kids from school. They got out early (today is their last day). We then came home, gave the house a quick cleaning, then started making cinnamon bread. I could have mowed the lawn or started weeding the garden, but I had some much needed time with the kids. I made a double batch of cinnamon bread dough. Each got to make what they wanted with their dough. The usual is butter, cinnamon & sugar. The kids were adding chocolate chips, coconut, white chocolate chips, brown sugar & even (Trent's idea) p-nut butter and chocolate chips. We haven't tried eating that yet. Can't try to eat 5 loaves of bread in one night.



Look at my little man. Too cute!


Good times.

Taking his frustrations out on the bread dough.

Each loaf was designated a color of toothpick & we wrote down what was in the mix.

Finger

While doing laundry, I had a pants hanger & was squeezing the little section open. It must have been old, for I had to apply quite a bit of pressure to get it to open. Then Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

My fingernail length was 1/2'd. Man that hurt.
