We Have Returned
Our internet is back!!! Hoo-Rah! So here I am with a post although there's nothing much new here... Oh, well, I did hear about my latest CA-125 and it came down to 268 from 349 after 1 more Doxil dose. And since Doxil isn't known for great drops in CA-125, I'm glad for any number in the downward direction. Quite a change though, from the results after the first round of Carboplatinum and Taxol (the kinds of chemo I got last year) when it dropped to 17. We still talk about the "17-dance" around here - - the one I did when I got the phone call with that result. It was quite a show. =)
Folks have been asking about my hair, so I'll put a few pics here. Everyone should be prepared though, for the next kind of chemo to cause me to lose it again. Only a few kinds of chemo DON'T cause hair loss, so can't imagine I'll be this lucky forever. Ah well - I'll just appreciate it while I have it and when it falls out again I'll buy more hats and wigs, just for fun. Just think, all you men out there, one more thing for the women to shop for and accessorize with. Yay.
For now though, here's a shot from the back:
And from the top. I think I look like I'm wearing an Annie wig.
Here's one of Andy Farmin' the Home Place:
And then here's a photo proving how good I felt today. I'm testing out an 18-year-old mare a friend is trying to sell us. She's the fastest moving horse I think I've ever ridden. She was a cutter and a barrel horse (hmmm... maybe many of you don't know what that is. If not, let me know) and if you're not careful she'll spin around sideways, right out from underneath you. Plus she has one speed: FAST. What we work on is staying at a trot without breaking into a lope. She honestly doesn't know how. But give me a movin' horse any day. The slow ones drive me mad.
Good days everyone!!!

You're Right, Michelle B
I should post a few snapshots from Sat Eve since Karen F sent them our way. What a good time we had... just wish we could all get together more often and more of you could be here!
Here's a cool shot of Dave...
A few of us ...
Here are Darrell and Lex working to remember the words to the song about Beer-Can Bob and his love, Tolula from Missoula. A song everyone should know because it's guaranteed to make you laugh.
Some of the singers...
And Ty added occasional percussion... (Dove season started, you know.)
