 It’s late in the day so I don’t have a lot to say yet today. But, will share the news from our “doctor visit of the day” with you. Today we went for Ms. Kate’s radiology consultation and met her radiology doctor. He seems like a nice guy —- for a ten year old. LOL. Yeh, they all look like they are 10 years old these day. I long for the “Dr. Welby, MD” types but I’m now far older than the Dr. Welby character was. LOL 

The visit went well although her radiation treatment is going to be more complicated than at least I pictured. Today was meet/greet/explanation day with the doctor. Next week we see him again where they will do an enhanced CT with extra pictures so they can do exact pin-pointing when they begin the treatment. While they believe that the surgeon did a great job, there is no such thing as a guarantee that it will not return, especially for people like Kate who has all of the markers for a possible return. (Too complicated to explain) So, while we were hoping to start treatment as early as Monday, it could be a couple of weeks before she starts her treatments. The number of treatments is unknown at the moment until her radiation doctor tells us what that will be. 

The rain has started now and and will go for a couple of hours here. Good thing for my plants that are waiting for a permanent home. I did get a new peony planted yesterday. I’ve been scouring the internet for some five-gallon plastic buckets to put around my tomatoes. I used to have a bunch of buckets from Rural King tat I cut the bottom out of. They lasted through a few seasons but eventually they get really brittle and fall apart. But — Rural King no longer carries them. I would love think that somebody would make them with the bottom already cut out but so far I’m not having a lot of luck. If Amazon doesn’t have it —- I don’t know what to tell you. 

Time to watch the news and weather so I’m gone today. This is Thursday and one our favorite night for watching tv together. We watch “Young Sheldon”, — “Ghosts”, — “Swamp People”, —- and “Swamp People, Snake Invasion”. Noting like a good gators and snakes night!  LOL

Have a blessed evening. Peace.
