The last day of the month. It occurred to me that I post so much on Facebook I don't need a blog. Still I do like writing a bit more.

 We went to Jai Lai in Fort Pierce and won! We had a wonderful meal in that town at a restaurant called S & S takeout. It made me want to eat super healthy!!

 We've gone to a few buffets - not so healthy.

 We have seen Anna and Alan and even got to see Thomas during one visit (our nephew).

 The girls never get tired of the beach but today it is pouring so we'll stay in. We have such a great Wi Fi connection that we set up Hulu and I'm catching up on shows I missed because we can't tape them or don't get them (House of Cards for example).

 We have seen many of the Oscar nominees and are really shocked that Boyhood didn't win over Birdman but I guess that is one reason I never reviewed movies on epinions.

 We love it at PSL Village but it would be nice if we could be more sociable but there really isn't the opportunity.

 Mom is doing great and has yet to ask me when we are coming home. That could be because it is a record breaking snow season in MA so she is glad she doesn't have to worry about  my driving.

 We lost another member of CBJ to cancer who was 69. I'm not putting off dessert; in fact, I'm having doubles!!!

I posted this pic on Facebook but I just love it.


I sold one bracelet on OfferUp, where people near you buy so there is no postage and several on eBay so I'm excited about that. Over and out for now.

Cancer: I'm Scared

2/21/2022 I don't know what triggered this feeling. I have been fine. Last night we were with the grandkids, other grandparents, the grandkids' parents and a couple of others. Maybe being in such a happy gathering did it. I am not going to speculate but I came home and cried.  I cried for my daughters and my best friend who lives on the other side of the country. I cried in fear of what I would hear from the BRCA test. I cried for what was.

After Surgery: What is it like

 3/15/2022 Although I am on pain meds and a little loopy, I wanted to get my surgery day down before I forget. I don't know if this is the protocol of all breast surgeries, but I saw a lot of people!  At 7:45 I was taken into the pre-op area where I was asked my name and birthdate a dozen times. So many times, that when a woman walked in, I just said my name and birthdate. She laughed and said that she knew my name but not my birthdate. "I'm Dr. Baker." Well of course I didn't recognize her. I only met her one time, and she had a net on her head and a mask and plastic covering her face. She had on scrubs so there was no white coat. In any case I was asked by lots of nurses health questions, got an IV put in with at some point saline and an antibiotic and off I went to Nuclear Medicine and saw a machine that looked like it was from outer space. I wondered if this is also the radiation machine but I didn't ask. Mitch, an RN, spent a long time explaining what wou
