Road Closed?

We thought it was strange that we didn't get our newspaper this morning. Turns out our road is closed. Hmmmm.............



On our way home this afternoon we passed this snow plow FINALLY doing something about our street.

Sunrise

A most magnificent sunrise this morning....of course it is only 19 degrees out!

Kol is shoveling the driveway in hopes that the car will slide out easier today. This is actually this worst part.

White Thanksgiving


This is the scene outside our living room window about 8 am this morning and the snow has been falling continuously. Button isn't quite so sure she likes being the first to put her paw prints out there.

Wonderful Thanksgiving


A small intimate gathering with the most delicious food was enjoyed in front of the roaring fire while raindrops fell silently outside. We each expressed our thanks for good health and being together. All very meaningful for this Thanksgiving.

Sighting

Submarine sighting while on our ferry ride to Seattle. Unusual, but not unheard of in these parts since it was going to the shipyard in Bremerton.

Notice the BLUE SKY!!!!!!

Day 1

Here we are on the Bremerton ferry returning home from DAY 1 of the radiation treatments with 32 left to go. It is only a 5 1/2 hour round trip, but well worth it for the healing to happen. The ferry on the left is actually going to Bainbridge Island and in the center of the picture is the famous Seattle Space Needle.

Today was beautiful with blue skies, sun and dry roads as opposed to yesterday which was very windy and pouring all day and the water had many white caps!

I AM B-A-C-K ! ! ! !


Two weeks after my surgery and I AM BACK HOME and it feels s-o-o-o-o-o G-O-O-O-O-O-D !!!!!!!

I traded in the robe for the hat and I'm ready for the next phase of this little adventure.

I'm feeling great and progressed so well through the rehabilitation phase that I was discharged a day early. We start our daily ferry commutes tomorrow with the official kick-off of radiation treatments beginning Thursday. Apparently Wednesday is the "test" run. I'm willing to make the extra trip to make sure they get it right!

While I don't recommend having a brain tumor, I strongly recommend you travel from anywhere in the country to the UW Medical Center in Seattle to have it removed. They are the MOST INCREDIBLE TEAM! WHEW! I'm so lucky!
