It's 6:15 and Gary is asleep in the recliner. We've had another great day. Granny and Scott stayed through lunch and Jeremy was able to join us. He stayed much longer, and we all had a great visit.

It really has been a good week. (Now that's a picture of where we are when a good week includes two visits to the dentist's office for procedures! :-) We appreciate and enjoyed the company. The timing was just right for that. Unfortunately visits can sometimes be draining and challenging. Everyone has been so kind about calling first, and we are learning to say "now is not a good time". I thank you all for giving us that option. Please do not decide that you can't or shouldn't come for a visit because Gary is not up to it. Each day is different, so just give us a call anytime you are in the area. Good days need to be shared.

Since chemo is next week, we will be away from the house a lot, and I don't figure Gary will be feeling well. He certainly didn't with the last round, but these doctors do have a way of treating side effects, now that we know what could be a problem. I plan to ask the oncologist tomorrow what he will be doing differently!

Thanks again for sharing and our best wishes to all you students returning to school.
Vallie and Terry - empty nest does turn out to be a good thing! ENJOY.

Love to all, Robbi
