What a different day.

I sure as heck wanted to try to focus on something else on Tuesday. After my quick radiation ttreatment I had Jim drop me off at McDonald's and I planned on walking home to get some exercise. I'm starting to miss the fresh air and figured I better get some while I can. So after a couple cups of hot coffee, I headed out for home. A short way up the road I realized I was walking past the Johnson home where I remembered Joe had just had a hip replacement and decided to go knock on the door. At that moment I had this crazy thought that the poor guy might not be able to open the door and here I am ringing it. But he did open it and we had a really nice visit. He's doing pretty good on his recovery path. Then on I went towards home and came upon one of these big truck outfits that puts this crazy plastic hose pipe into old sewer pipes and it hardens and becomes a new pipe. It was quite an operation and I stood in awe just like a little kid. Then a guy came over and I figured he was going to tell me to get lost, but he just started explaining the process and pointed out that down the road is where the pipe would come out and how it works. Well it was so interesting that I went to the next station and then to the end and watched it through through the entire process. Three hours later I showed up at home. Well the good thing is that I realized how good I felt and how long I lasted being focused on something else other than this stupid cancer. I guess it is like anything else, if we focus on good things, the bad ones seem to not be so bad. Worked for me. Now I also know everything about Instifoam sewer linings, ha ha. Another batch of beautiful cards and notes and visits ended my long day. Oh yes, I can't forget to mention my neighbor Jan's yummy coffee cake he made. Thank you neighbor. It is just so great to have people care. God bless you all.
