Plan, plan plan … Friday, 8/21/2009
Friday Night 11:00 pm.
Today was a decent day. I went to work and finished building a template for a website … that was kind of fun! I was tired when I got home … but it was worth it. I often car pool with Harry M and sometimes with David L. It’s kind of fun doing that because you get to talk, tell jokes, whatever in the morning before work. We have a 45 min. drive so there’s always time to talk about something … it’s kind of nice.
My plans for the weekend:
Sher and I have a lot of things to get ready within the next week or so. One of the things that was looming over our heads was so graciously solved by my dear friend Ginni G. We had no power of attorney papers, no wills, no health advocate papers signed … nothing, nada. Ginni G. solved all that for us, and I am so thankful for that. And, she did it with lightning speed. Thank you Ginni and I love you for that.
One of the other things I have to settle over the weekend is exactly what I’m going to do with our business so that it continues to run as smoothly as possible during the time I spend in the hospital. We’re talking about being in the hospital for at least 6 weeks and possibly as long as 12 weeks. I’m hoping my son (JR) and Sher can keep things afloat until I once again can pickup and work. My dear friend Josh F. helps out a lot too with the server and I hope to talk to him about this shortly.
Saturday morning (tomorrow) I’m planning on getting up at 5:30 am., and putting a sound card into Sher’s pc. That should be a 20 min. thing … but you know how that can go … right
. 20 mins. can easily turn into a half day … boy, I hope not.
I also have to make out invoices for the 6-12 weeks so that they can be mailed out in a timely manner … that could prove to be challenging … but hopefully will go smooth.
Then lastly, I love to mow my lawn! … man, it needs it. I have neglected most of the outdoor chores because I just haven’t had the energy to do them. By the time I get home form work, either cook or eat some dinner (Sher and split the cooking duties), read my emails and deal with customers …. I’m beat and the day/night is nearly over.
Next week, I have so many Dr. appointments I can already see that none of these things are going to get done … so it’s best to try and do them now.
That is one of the strange things about cancer … or at least in my case. There just was’nt/isn’t enough time to prepare everything you want to do for loved ones and family. Then the things you do have time for, you usually don’t have the energy for.
Hey, you know what? … I feel positive and powerful today, and thats the spirit I want to keep up with this.
I’d also like to go see a friend Laura and talk to her about Chinese medicine for the healing process … hopefully I can do that Saturday afternoon or early eve.
I also got some good news about my buddy Ray L. (he just had surgery on his shoulder). He got a new job writing a sports column! Awesome … go Ray go!
There’s a lot good stuff happening around too!
BTW …. Mac dropped by with the goods to make healing mushroom tea … thats my first job tomorrow morning.
