When no news really is good news.

After Barend's post on Wednesday relating tales of theater, meals and a day of chemotherapy everything has fallen quiet.  This is due, not to a lack of energy or feeling bad, in fact, the opposite is true.  Barend is driving his "sissy wagon" again, with no difficulty, thus regaining his freedom from me and the family vehicle.  

The struggle with nausea after chemo was greatly diminished this time due to precautionary medicating and the addition of a new drug minimizing stomach acid.

The result is fairly miraculous, the garden gnomes have had someone to look after them and the rabbit down the hole at the top of the road has new visiting bears.  Lots of preparation has gone into setting up the yard to take advantage of our miraculous week of summer weather.  We have family coming to stay, so we want to make the most of our beautiful surroundings.  Barend hung the hammock we received from Santa

We have been taking our afternoon rest time on the lawn and then adding drinks to make it cocktail time.  All the hours are 'Happy Hour' and the consumption of alcohol is severely limited for one member of this family and I take longer than one hour with my wine consumption.  This is also the chosen location for after dinner coffee 

So folks, if you don't see us on this blog, you know the no news really is good news!
