Bloodwork and a Coffee Stop

Getting to the lab was a breeze today. Not too much traffic. I noticed there was a fast food restaurant with a new iced coffee drink. It piqued my interest, so we stopped on the way back. It was delicious. Salted caramel toffee iced coffee. Yum. It really hit the spot. It went down so quick and smooth.

Today I receive my 2nd round of 5/23 chemo via UPS. It will be my third round of chemo. I start that next Monday. I won’t be forgetting the Zofran this round. I hated being nauseous last time. I only vomited once, but that was enough to ensure I take my meds.

The lab techs love me. They all know my name. They’re all happy to see me and my wife. They love her hair. Every outing, we have someone who compliments her hair color. I’m not jealous lol. I have a Pac-Man tattoo. That gets me compliments a lot. Not as much as her hair, though. I think it’s cute that many people say something about it.

The cats have been good lately; the big one had an upset tummy yesterday and vomited a couple of times. Today he seems good. Sometimes I think he overeats and forgets he just ate, and then barfs. Chip has been wanting to roam each night. Usually, he goes in his room and has a calm evening. The last few nights he hasn’t wanted this. Last night was a calm, structured night for him. I got up around 4:45 to go pee, and he heard me. He puts out a baby cry to get his way. We let him out then. Prior to this week, he would get up around 1-3 am and ask to come out early. No problem; he’s a good boy most days. It was nice to not hear it at 1 am.

That’s about it for this week’s update.
Thanks for stopping by!
