Just another chemo Monday...there's a tune running through my head as I think of that line...just another chemo Monday...but I can't think of what it is. Can you figure it out, Jerry?
It actually was a pretty good day, except I had to have an extra I-V of magnesium which made the time longer that I had to stay in the Cancer Center. But I'm beginning to feel like they are spoiling me! Yesterday I had a good chair again! So from 8:00-3:00 I sat in a reclining, heated, massage chair. I read my book, did my daily newspaper puzzle and read the paper, listened to my Pride and Prejudice CD, had a nummy lunch that Greg brought me from Schlotksy's, talked on the phone, and took several naps. Not too different from most of my days at home! Getting well is a lot of work!
It was great to have Steve, Luke and Mary Strutz spend the night Saturday. Steve and Luke had gone to Oregon to George Fox College to pick up Mary. She's now home for the summer in Billings. Our little Mary is finished with her freshman year. Wow. We had a very nice visit.
Bethany, Mary's sister, is also a student at George Fox and she is leaving today with a group from her school to study in Africa. They will go to Rwanda and Uganda. We are praying for her health and safety. I hope to see her and hear all about her trip before she heads back to Billings for the rest of the summer. It's so great to be a pit-stop for my Billings relatives when they travel between Montana and Oregon.
My tummy is upset today. I'm so thankful for anti-nausea medicine. Hopefully I'll be able to face food pretty soon.
Thank you for your faithful prayers. I feel so humbled by your love. Love, Julie
Julie and Greg

Isn't that a Jimmy Buffet song? I'm so glad you got a good chair. Craig has almost finished heading up the remodel on our ranch house here in Ellensburg. I hope you can stop sometime on your way to Seattle. Your tummy will be all better, I'll make one of my mom's famous chocolate cakes, and we'll drink coffee and visit! Love, Cindy
Thanks again for housing my dad and me, I especially enjoyed the maple bars in the morning :)
Thanks for letting us stay at your house Julie and Greg! I love seeing you guys and am always so comfortable at your house! I liked the maple bars too!!!! :) I love you both sooooo much! ~Mary
It's "Manic Monday" by the Bangles I think you're thinking of, Julie! "It's just another manic monday..Ohh, Ohh." Leave it to me, your 80's music buff sister. :)
Love you! Liz
