License to Chill

Began round two of chemo yesterday, so far feeling fine other than electric fingers this morning making it “interesting” to type.  My spring schedule will be three days of chemo (Thursday in clinic for four hours, then two days at home with pump) every other week.  My job is to chill out, a challenge for a guy whose wife says “doesn’t idle well” especially with Oregon 80+, blue sky days in April.  Started reading The Cold Dish, the first book in the Longmire series at the clinic.  About half way in, I’m already hooked.  Then an afternoon visit to my happy place for a post session cheeseburger and home for some binge watching of Top Gear on Netflix.

This afternoon calls for some Buffet tunes and likely a nap on the deck.  I assert cancer comes with a license to chill.

happy

  1. Mark, so glad we can easily keep up on your fight against this crazy beast cancer. We love you and Judy and remember you in prayer daily. 💚-Teri Jo and Clyde

  2. I wish I knew you better. Of course I met you YEARS ago as ‘the son of our minister’. I think we called him Pastor. I remember visiting EWSC in my senior year and staying with my cousin Judy Handegard. You came into her room (Dresden???…the all girl dormitory) and I thought she was the luckiest girl in the world.

    She was/is.
