I'm doing better this time around after chemo. I was determined to do virtually nothing for a few days afterward, as I mentioned earlier, and I think it's working. I'm still a bit slow (hmmm, that doesn't sound too flattering, but ah well), but I'm walking outside some already and last time I didn't want to MOVE for 2 solid weeks.
There's also something I want to make sure everyone knows. When I say I'm feeling puny, that's all I mean. I am SO lucky, because I don't get sick, I don't throw up, I don't have headaches, I don't have bone aches, I don't (so far) get the side effects most common with Doxil. All I feel is weak and tired. My heart rate gets out of control, so the least exertion is overwhelming, but if I SIT, well - all is good. =)
Man I hate reading "I" or "me" more than twice in this blog. I shall turn the focus away now, thank goodness.
Here's Tiffany with her dog who loves to ride piggy-back. Can you see how she's smiling? (The dog, I mean.)
And here's a couple from our last wagon-ride. Sure does make you realize how fast our lives have gotten - - It took us an hour to go just a few miles, but it was such a nice, quiet, pleasant hour. Can anyone else come visit soon??

Fun pictures!!! I especially like the one of Tiffany & her dog...both of them with big smiles! :o) I don't believe I've ever seen a dog do that!! Glad to hear that you are doing better after chemo this time. The wagon ride looks great! Sometime we'll have to come visit! Hugs, ~ Mo
Ooh the wagon ride looks so fun. We are actually getting a good rain tonight too It smells so yummy. We are anxiously awaiting a visit from Shawna and Leilani tommorrow. Aren't we the lucky ones Retha
What a great post! Looked like a great group on the wagon ride. Isn't it great when you get to share things you love with people you love? :) The picture of Tiffany and her dog is SO funny - that dog does not know it is a dog, does it? :) Glad the chemo was a little easier on you this time. Thinking of you tons as your two trips draw closer. Have a good day.
Glad your feeling better! We got invited to go golfing in Riverton, so maybe we could go on a wagon ride too??? Looks like fun! The boys would love it! By the way- our stacker is a MVE! It's been through ALOT of bales and is about worn out, but works really nice in the field. So nice Shawna can be around a little! Great pics!
I heard wonderful things about your wagon rides from one of your most recent visitors! How fun for everyone! Gotta love the rain and I loved the dog/Tiffany pictures too. We're thankful too that these meds have been nicer to you! :) Hang in there! LW
Oooh, Michelle, I love that picture of the rain! It looks just as refreshing as it really was!
Hey Jill - when are you going to be in town here? Yes, you've got to stop and see us!
Hey- we don't actually have any definite plans--- it won't be real soon as we still have 1000 acres of straw to bale. I'll call for sure if we make it! Jill
I enjoyed your last posting....fun pictures. We will be thinking of you as you check with the specialists. We hope all goes well. Linda
