Sunday

treeWith all the news about my treatment plan yesterday, I rather forgot to mention any other bits of news! The main one was that middle daughter Katie has returned home from her first term at University, so we are back to having a near houseful again. Life will not be dull, although I see she has wasted no time in going back to her old job on a temporary basis to earn some sheckels for the next term. She will be home for a month and it is good to have her here (and her lodger, Indie)Indie

We also started getting into the Christmas mood by putting up the tree and decorating it. We did think about putting it in the conservatory, but we found it was just a bit too big, so in a fit of tree2 Christmas spirit we will probaly get another, smaller tree to go in there. We did think about decorating the Lemon tree (might be a lemon ready for a Christmas G&T) but it (the tree) isn’t quite big enough!

Finally, just to carry on the botanical theme, the Vincristine chemo agent I will be given next week, is derived from the periwinkle (vinca) family of plants – but I don’t think I will be making my own!
