Snowy Sunday

             So before I go into how beautiful and quiet Dave and Lori's cabin is when its snowing like this, I have a few more loose ends to tie up. Before we can call ourselves caught up we need to talk about the walk too. The Light the Night walk for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society was about a month ago now. We had a team, "Kymphoma" of course that totally kicked ass. It was a great event and we felt so supported by everyone who showed up. Team Kymphoma ended up sweeping the event. Most team members and most money raised. Nice job everyone.
            So now that we have talked about the haircut, walk and new scan results we are pretty much up to date. So no we can discus the Birthday. I got Thursday night off work but Kym was not feeling well so we ordered in. The next day she was awarded a small shopping spree at REI before we headed up to Truckee for the weekend. The snow is falling and these weekends really help with changing Kym's scenery. You can imagine how tired she must get of hanging around our house all the time. We will be braving the elements to have a nice dinner at Squaw village tonight. Then home tomorrow. I work Tues,Wed, and Thur so Kym will be having Thanksgiving at her parents house. Kym has another infusion (Chemo) on Wednesday so hopefully it doesn't zap her to bad.
              The infusions have started to take more of a physical toll on her now that it is doing it's job. It used to take her a couple days to be back on her feet and now it's more like a week. To be back on her feet is a relative term because she seems to always have some discomfort. She truly is one of the strongest people I know. I am so proud of how she is handling all this.
              We plan on having a great holiday season and decorating the house. Not something Billy and I do traditionally, but Kym is bring a woman's touch to the house. We have scented candles now and everything. So if you are not sick and have not been around anyone who is, give us a call. Holidays are always better with visitors. Bring your favorite beverage and some good stories. Kym's friend Jeanne came over the other day to do yoga with Kym, which was nice.  Anyway, that's all for now. Happy Thanksgiving.
