I've been at my new job for a week now, and I LOVE it! The people at the facility are so wonderful and the job is so rewarding!!!!

Starting on Thursday, I will be working at Hallmark On The Lake! It's a retirement residence for folks who are still independent. I have been hired by one of the senior ladies who lives there. She had surgery a week ago, and will need someone to assist her for the next few months. I am really excited about this opportunity. I'm not sure how this will all work, with my chemo, but I'm sure that if I just do a single dose every week, I "should" be okay to go to work. I wasn't planning to go back to work, while on chemo, but we can't afford to both not be working. So, hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to work I go.............

Last night, I went to see Dog The Bounty Hunter, with my best bud, Joan!!!!

Before the show.....I had butterflies in my tummy, in this picture!
Here's my best buddy, Joan, posing with the Blues Brothers. Here he is............... DOG! The show was amazing! He gave his testimony, and told us he is a born again Christian, Pentecostal. He has an amazing testimony! "Dog" Duane Chapman is truly an inspiration!

We've been married exactly 1.5 years, today! This picture is from our wedding day, Jan 4th. 2008.

Here we are at our summer reception/vow renewal, last July 6th.
This picture was taken about a month ago......

Yesterday, there was a birthday party for my beautiful step-daughter Jessica, and her half sister. Jessica's birthday is actually in July, but her half sister had a birthday yesterday, and a joint party was thrown for them.

Here is our ALMOST 13 year old!!!!

Yesterday was my friends Gayle's wedding!

She was a beautiful bride!
Here is her hubby to be (yellow rose) with his brother, before the wedding.

So I've had my two first REALLY harsh experiences with chemo brain. Last week, I was at a local produce market, when this elderly gent, said hi to me and asked me how the chemo was going. I looked at him, and I knew that I KNEW him, but I couldn't figure out where from. I told him I didn't remember his name, to which he replied, was Mike. Still, no clue. THEN he tells me he's from our church. Our church has 8 people, on a GOOD day...LOL! I eventually remembered who he was, but it really threw me for a loop, that I couldn't remember him. Then tonight, Pete and I went out for dinner. When I went to pay, I totally forgot my PIN number! I used my debit card several times today, and I use it on a regular basis. When I went up to pay, my mind would NOT process my PIN number. I stood at the til for a good 5 minutes trying to remember my PIN. This has NEVER happened to me before, and it was rather embarrassing! LOL! I can laugh about it, thanks goodness, and I didn't stress about either situation. LOL!
