Wednesday's weigh in

Well I got to excited to get to work on Tuesday because I had a lot to do. So Tuesday's weigh in got put off until this morning ------ 151 lbs. It's nice to show a slight gain and certainly not a loss. I can tell a big difference because I get cravings quite a bit, so the food intake has been high. Most of the time I am taking second portions like my old self would. Thank God the chemo has left the appetite alone. I somewhat feel normal again and everyone tells me I have color again and don't look so sick. The only thing I have really noticed is the lack of strength in my hands and fingers. Opening chip bags was more of a challenge than it should be. I haven't started working out yet-------slacking obviously.

Mom and Dad got here Monday and it was really nice to see them. They were as worn out as I was Monday so the conversation time wasn't much longer than dinner, but still it was nice to have to have the whole family there. Tuesday the girls went to a witch fest at Gardener Village, so dad and I went out to Chili's and had dinner. It was good to have a serious conversation about the "C" word and still take time to cover the important stuff like fishing, racing, and our stupid football teams playing like crap.

Well I better get going to bed, I still get up so many times in the night, that it takes 9 hours of sleep to get 5 it seems.

Good night all and best wishes for all of you and your families,

Jeff
