A SCHEDULED LIFE

Jan 24/10

We are definitely in a routine these days that is very reminiscent of our old work life.  We go to my treatments each day from Monday to Friday and have the weekend off to catch up with chores and other things.  We find that it is easier to set a weekly schedule for activities like laundry and house cleaning.  If we don’t, we lose track of the last time that something was done.

We’re walking more than ever and still doing weight workouts 3 or 4 times a week.  It’s making a difference in our overall health and fitness but we’re not fading away into stick people.  Perhaps the excellent gourmet food that Stuart continues to prepare on a daily basis plays a role.  We certainly haven’t felt the need for restaurant food.

I have assurances from my doctor that there shouldn’t be any need for me to stay around for too long after my treatments, so we are doing research on where we want to go in March.  We are interested in going to Arizona as the weather will be the warmest there and locations in the Phoenix/Tucson area seems like a good place to start.  We will probably visit Yuma along the way as it is the most famous Snowbird destination in the state.

So another two weeks plus one day of treatment and then we can focus on serious planning for heading down the road.  We are in the condo until Feb 28 which gives us plenty of time to prepare.
