Happy Wednesday! So, I thought the blog post went through, but it turns out it didn’t, so you get a two-fer today!

Not much happened the week of the 24th, so you’re in luck – you didn’t miss much!

This past week, on Saturday we took Rebel to the dog park – he loved it, when we first got there, there were not many dogs and by the time we left, there were over a dozen dogs for Rebel to have fun with. On Sunday, there was a food truck thing at the horse track, so we went. I had bacon wrapped garlic and a chicken & waffle skewer. The garlic was delicious, the chicken and waffle skewer was so-so. Like usual, my luck with the horses was crappy – I came with $20 to bet (then I added $2 in) and I left with $6.40. My dad bet on some longshots and won some money, though.

On Monday, my mom baked a few cookies because, hey, cookies are delicious. Monday was also Memorial Day, a holiday here in America. My mom has this week off, so yesterday she broke out the smoker and smoked some ribs, some macaroni and cheese, and some other stuff – all delicious. So it was a pretty eventful week! I will talk to all of you next week, but it won’t be nearly as eventful as this week.

Happy Wednesday! So, not much going on here – Sunday was Mother’s Day, my mom requested takeout because going out to dinner on Mother’s Day is just chaotic. I went to my local oncologist today and my numbers are how they have been – so he’s happy. My next doctors visit is seeing a new dentist in the first few weeks June, then my NYC oncologist a few days after that.

Tomorrow, May 18th is the two year anniversary of the day I was told that I have Chronic NK & T-Cell LGL leukemia. Multiple dates could be considered the anniversary, though – April 7th was my first local oncologist visit, April 10th was the day he told me I probably had a malignancy of some kind, April 15th was the day he gave me the paperwork on LGL leukemia, so I suppose April 15th could be an anniversary – May 18th was the day that the diagnosis was confirmed and a treatment plan was laid out, though.

So, anyway, I will talk to all of you next week. Have a great weekend!

Happy Wednesday! So, not much going on here – hopefully nothing back going on in your neck of the woods either. Nothing much planned this weekend – but Sunday is Mothers Day here in the US, so remember that, everyone!

Other than that, hope all of you have a great weekend and I will talk to on Monday!

Hello everyone! So, it was Restaurant Week for the last two weeks here – and on Saturday, we went to a local fancy restaurant for it. It was very delicious. I had mozzarella cheese drizzled with olive oil and served with a basil leaf for an appetizer (weird appetizer, a whole lot of cheese, but hey, it’s a fancy place, they probably know what they are doing!), a bronzino filet with lentil entree, and a lemon mousse for dessert. It was delicious. So, other than that, nothing went on here this weekend. So, I will talk to all of you next week!
