Same view, same gas problem, same "I don't want to do this"

-

but a different place,  It is Tuesday and the hearings gave us a little something to do while driving but I am just uncomfortable all the time. Anyway, I'm really trying not to complain because I am blessed. 

Once out of CA we hit Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa and now Illinois. Geneseo campground is nice and the kind of place that if we didn't have timing issues, we'd stay another day just to chill but tomorrow on we go. 

Our destination is New York where our oldest daughter lives and is not feeling well. In the meantime, our younger daughter got a job in a NYC hospital so we will help her move and help out with the sick one and see our friends!!! Yay

We have done so little (though I did buy a postcard for the grands- finally) that there isn't much to say but I will try to get my boring pictures up. Til we meet again. Jo

Thursday, June 30

Same old same old - well not really. We got our levelers put on and though we were going to stay at a travel stop we found a really nice campground, Ridge Ranch in Newton Falls, OH. Really really nice place to go with kids. We do see the light at the end of the tunnel - 400 more miles!  We are already planning on doing laundry at Terri and Jeff's :) on Monday and see Sheera and Albert on Sunday.

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
