Escape!

This is the "Whew, the speedometer is fixed" look! Dorothy went with me yesterday and we got it done. I'm glad it's done.

My friends, Steve and Mary, are coming in just a few minutes and we'll leave in the morning for Houston. They will go with me on the cruise and stay with me after we get back until it's time for my appointment at MD Anderson. I'll have computer access once we get off the ship, so I can probably blog. I will as soon as I can, but no promises. I'm taking this escape and I'll be back as soon as I can. In the meantime, you all take a break from my blog and escape, too! I know I need some new scenery. Maybe it will help me.

Joan is all set to look after the house while I'm gone. She is fully equipped with keys and garage door opener and I've cleaned the house. God blesses me with awesome friends and family. Thank you for being among those blessings and God bless you!

  5. Thanks, Ruthie. We do so well when we are together. We lapse into tears a lot, but we are both comfortable with them when we're together. Thanks for going with me on this escape!

  6. HB, you are so right. Dorothy is such a blessing to me and we do make each other laugh, right in the middle of tears, sometimes! She's a doll! Yes, I thank God for her and you!

  7. Donna, I packed like you said, so I should be okay. MDA will be okay because I have good support. I'll report on the blog as soon as I have results from the MDA appointment, but I expect all will be good. Thanks so much for caring! Love you!

  8. Oh, Linda! Dorothy is not going with me. I wish she would, but she won't even go to Branson with me. At first she said she would, but she backed out. I think she's pretty shaky about leaving home because her vision is so non existent. At home she knows where everything is, but when she gets away from home she's really uncomfortable. My good friend, who lives in Houston is going as my room mate. She has cruised before, lots, so she'll coach us country bumpkins along the new paths! I'll talk to Dorothy every day once we're on land, so I'll keep in close touch with her. I'm blessed to have Patsy go with me and Steve and Mary to even drive me down there. We'll be a fierce team! They'll all be great support for me in my blubbering. Wish you and Tom could join us, too! Love you!

  10. Thanks, Pamela. I'll do the best I can; will be thinking of you and Donna and hope I get this cruise thing right. I always think of K-Bug when I go to MDA and hope I can do as well as she does! Love you!
