Graduation Party Day!!!! Yes we're partying today for Lisa and Michael. With the help of my sister-in-law Lori and my niece, Allie, we managed to get the salads made on Friday and the rest of the house straightened up. Paul put a new ceiling in the bathroom and we changed the color scheme. Lisa made a lot of the food and more than a lot of the mess. Paul weeded the gardens and planted the flowers which I usually plant. The porches (back & front) have been hosed down to rid them of the pollen. SO LETS PARTY.

Tuesday, June 5th I had to get another blood transfusion. But the day was long and I didn't finish the transfusion until 6:00 p.m. having gotten there at 10:30 a.m. It's just a lazy day to watch TV and get a free lunch.

Radiation ended suprisingly on Thursday. The ladies who come in for radiation for breast cancer cheered and Mike and I brought donuts to celebrate. I don't go back to my radiation doctor for a month. According to the doctor, the radiation will continue to shrink the tumor even though I'm not getting daily treatments. The liquid in the blister has re-absorbed back into the skin which is good as it contains a lot of protein. Now I have funky tough skin on the bottom of my foot. Slowly I'm trying to put some weight on it, but its still a little tender. I can walk around with 1 crutch, but like to use 2 for balance.

So this week Mike and I get to sleep in. After the party, the house is clean and maybe I can catch up on my cross-stitching which I haven't felt like doing in eons. The family won't have to cook for a few days which will be good. It will be a nice week. Hope yours will be too.
