Happy 2009!

Jan 1 – 14... We brought in the new year pretty quietly as we were home by 10pm and watched it on TV (New York time). New Years day we had Mom, Dad, Doug & Fran over for dinner. Mom began chemo again on the 6th and again on the 12th. On the 12th the doctor gave her a diuretic for her bloating and it reacted with the chemo drugs so she experienced some side effects. We have had quite a bit of warm weather and snow melting – in between that we have some cold nights and snow. We planned to drive out to the farm the 9th but once again the weather interceded! We did drive to Levi’s basketball game with Mom & Dad in Big Sandy on the 10th. We were able to visit with Denita and family a bit there and also enjoyed watching Levi play.
We plan to drive the car to California, starting out today (Wed.) We will stay with brother Danny for a week or so while we attend and work at the Bob Hope Classic 50th golf tourney in Palm Desert. From there we plan to visit Dixie’s Aunt Marge and Mike sister, Sandy and family.
