LadyBug just saw her radiation specialist, Dr. Rads, today. She and Skitl drove up this morning. He told her she will have 28 treatments. That's 5 1/2 weeks. She will start 3 weeks after she is done with chemotherapy. That puts us into May, which means Kissa can drive her to her treatments. It also means she will be in radiation therapy until June. The best thing about that is that by the time family reunions come around, she will no longer have chemo in her system, and she can see some sunshine.
Right now, we just have to deal with taxes. Last year I ended up driving over two hours to find THE ONLY POST OFFICE IN THE LOWER 2/3 OF THE STATE THAT WAS OPEN. Granted, I waited until....well, not quite the last minute, but I wasn't far off. This year, we still have several days left, but after last year, we are having them done by a professional. We found out we made a mistake that COULD have been very costly last year, so I don't want to risk that sort of thing again this year.
I am holding steady at being down 50 lbs., but now Skitl has dropped at least 10. Of course, once warm weather decides to stay permanently, I think I may be able to melt off a few more.

I've been meaning to email you. Being in California I hear these kinds of things regularly, but I wanted to tell you that there are warnings about eating fish. Because of the mercury content in fish these days, they recommend that you not eat it more than like 2 days a week. Such is the case with a polluted ocean! I just mention it because you said you eat fish tacos for lunch every day. You can google it and read more about it.
While it isn't quite true that I eat fish EVERY day, I do eat it more than a couple of times a week, so maybe I should start looking into healthy alternatives....
I just eFile my taxes. Then again, I may be the only one in 1000 mile radius who does his own taxes anymore. They are ridiculously complex if you own your own business (or two).
Well, I'm glad she's done with chemo, but I'm sure sorry she has to go through radiation. Yikes. She's a trooper!
We had a local tax preparer who did teachers returns for free. They did ours and saved us $1000. As for the fish, I'll keep eating when I want it, and glow in the dark, as well as tell the temperature. :o)
This was actually the first time in my life I had someone else do my taxes for me. They actually ended up not only saving me big $$$ I don't have, but also got me a refund!!!!
