Kept Ames while Les went with Gina and Charli to see Men in Black III and then went to see Grandmama and ate at Sante Fe. Grandmama's Sunday School class is giving me $200 for my Fundraiser.

Ames sat in my lap well over an hour today watching videos! He is getting better every week! We watched a dinosaur video over and over and Charli laughed so hard!! Tomorrow I keep them from 8 until 1, I need to go to bed early, LOL!
Les knee still swollen

I really enjoyed the kids today. Ames is getting better about playing and siting in my lap. He really loves Les! When Les got home Charli and I started watching 80 music videos from movies, she liked that. Ames came with Les's hat on crazy and started dancing to Foot Loose. I will be glad when we can start taking him to Uptown events!

Charli brought me a letter when she came over today.

Got my last Hep shot today, thank goodness she didn't hurt like last nurse! I made it through exercise but had to rest a couple of times.
Lots of famous people dying lately, Donna Summer of lung cancer, Robin Gibbs, Whitney Houston just to name a few.

Charli spent the night last night and we had a blast together! She wanted to have a Party so we got cupcakes and sang and had a pillow fight. She was more playful and talkative than I have ever seen her! She likes to do Sandy Cheeks impressions and I love to hear her talk. She still calls yellow, Lellow and changes letters in many words which is so cute.
Les' knee swollen bad, can barely walk.

Nothing much going on but they called from Duke and scheduled a test where I will have to be sedated and they put a tube in my throat, they also are doing a heart cath Thursday... not looking forward to it!

Good sermon at church tonight, hi light of day was cuddling with Ames at naptime ;D

Jamie lost her job today! She and Kerry are where we were in 2001!
For good news I got a check from my Uncle Danny and Aunt Cathy for $500. to start our fundraising! My jaw dropped! I have to send them a card ASAP!
So far I have 4 days to stay at Duke this time! I have CT scans, heart cath and ultrasounds scheduled.

I am now working on 15th dish towel, I hope Michael's puts the Sugar and Cream yarn on sale soon, I have enough for several more but would like some more solid colors.
I increased TM to 16 minutes, I hope to have 20 soon but it is hard. Mask makes me feel like I am suffocating.

Gina came by brought me a great T-shirt, cute card and $$ and Ames was feeling bad, made my day better, though, Charli took my roses home with her, LOL! MIL's house smells like smoke, yuck!

Feeling blue today, Gina didn't come to church and it is raining, haven't heard from Jeremy in weeks and they didn't have a Mother of the Year at church! Sitting here watching the rain feeling sad and dreading that I Have to go to my MIL's!

My friend Chris Webber put this on my FB wall, I love it!
I got my letter from Duke to get my fundraising started and go back for more tests in June so I am getting closer!
Went to IHop, My Mom and her sister and 2 of her brothers took Grandmama out to eat. It was nice.

They called from Duke to let me know they were setting up next set of appointments for June 18th so I guess I still have a chance and need to start raising money, we used everything saved up on last two trips and gas is now $3.35 here and is much higher there, but that is down from before.
Went to see N'Tranze uptown, Charli ate her peanuts and laid in my lap relaxing.
Les still coughing but fixed bad brake, will do other side next week.

Gina took me to therapy and Nell and Cliff took us to church. Was raining and Les still sick.
Got shocking new that Kerry no longer works for Ballentine!

Les was too sick today and slept, he said he is going to try to work but I don't know if he will be able to. Gina is going to take me to therapy because the back brake show has messed up and Les is unable to fix but thinks he can drive to work, it sounds awful! Charli and I ate Birthday Cake ice cream and she told me it wasn't anyone's birthday so we sang Happy Birthday to her and I gave her a pretend gift, we laughed. She makes me laugh and so does Ames.

Been busy today! Got Hep B second shot before therapy (Made 30 exercise minutes) then had to take Les to Dr with upper respiratory infection and had to go to dentist to get wisdom tooth filled. Guess we have to go get his meds and something to eat soon. I lost 3 more lbs to weigh under 125 now...
Still no word from Duke but have seen most tests results online through the site.

Kept kids today while Trey worked extra hours, I am working on 10th dishcloth since I started! Charli likes to watch me crochet them. Felt pretty good today but Les has cold for last 3 days.

Cathy K has a new kit called This IS ME on sale this week end for NSD at SBE for $3

I started exercising with mask on and that helps last longer on treadmill, it is not a great thing to wear but works for high liters of O2 I need, using 15 to walk. Several of my tests are back and seem to be OK, especially the one I was concerned about
Ames is saying many words now and bringing diaper when he is wet. Gina sent me video of him on potty, so funny!
