Me in my sunroom


This is pretty much where I hang out these days.... we have a lovely sunroom, and recently added "real" (translated = comfortable) furniture to it, and it is pleasant and lovely. Ideal spot for reading or my current activity, needlework. I am still recovering from that darn virus and my activity level is very low. Staying in one spot quietly, helps me to easy breathing, so, the sunroom is a real "gift".
I see my doctor on Tuesday (May 22), so I will add the results after I have them. I expect no changes. I am not better or worse, so my guess is that I continue to be "stable".... but I will be scanned sometime soon to see what is really going on.
Medical Update: things appear stable. I continue on Xeloda at a reduced dosage, since I have developed Hand-Foot Syndrome, one of the common side effects of the drug. Next CT scan will be in about 3 weeks.

Good afternoon Joanne:
You look comfy - too bad it's been raining last couple days. I've seen your sunroom and it's a great space especially when the sun is bright. Keep up with the blog - we love to read it.

Hi Joanne,

Good to hear from you again. Enjoy your lovely room, we had snow here yesterday and this morning everything had frost on it. We, however, will not give up hope for the spring that is supposed to come I guess it's still just around the corner!

Nice place to picture you Joanne.
Needlework sounds very relaxing -what are yiu sewing?

Glad things are stable, though like you I'm sure I wish there would be an improvement.
