My sister reminded me that I haven't blogged in a while, which can either mean I'm feeling beyond crappy, nothing much has been going on, or I'm so busy I haven't had time to write. In this case it should be choice number 2--pretty dull. I'm feeling remarkably good for someone who had chemo last week. My red blood count is finally creeping up so I have a bit more energy. Some of the Bethany elves came over Saturday morning and we took the tree down. I hated to see it go--it was so pretty and such a reminder of how much I am loved, but it was time--I think it was either Princess Caroline or Stephanie of Monaco's birthday. Now if I put away the nativity sets it will really look like Christmas is over.
Saturday afternoon & evening I went to the Peninsula York Rite installations--three of them. I could have just gone for the last one--Golden Gate Commandery #16, because I had a function to perform at that installation. I presented the outgoing Commander with Lee's Past Commander's Jewel. Bill Hedrix is a fine man and Lee would have been proud to see his pin going to Bill. It got a little weepy after that. The men of the York Rite still hold Lee in high regard and miss him--or feel his presence at their practices. Lee was a Mason's Mason. He loved being part of the fraternity, always wanted to learn more about the craft, and always had a big smile for his Brothers. So I went to three installations in one day in his memory, even though I'd just had chemo--but as you've seen, so far I'm doing well with it.
Yesterday was devoted go church and football. Today was Curves and grocery shopping. Not very exciting.

Well, considering that you only took the tree down, hit three different Peninsula York Rite installations, managed church and a little time for football, Curves and grocery shopping- all after chemo-may I rudely add, I can quite see how you consider your life extremely DULL right now.
I mean, I really FEEL for you, poor thing. You haven’t had any house fires to put out, no neighborhood domestic quarrels, no recent 911s for stair-vacuuming, I mean, darling, things are simply too tepid.
I am raking my brain, knowing as I do, how hard it is to keep your brain gainfully employed.
DO NOT DESPAIR! Your friend will think of something!
Have you ever considered kangaroo wrangling?
As ever, your pal,
