A progressively better week

Thank you for all of your well wishes this week. I’ve been in a lot of pain, and generally under the weather, but I’m sooo much better than Sunday. I have another ultrasound in a week to determine the size and changes in the cyst. Hopefully it won’t require surgery.

Here’s a few pictures from this week:

Here’s my sweet Rosie. She’s been a good helper this week.


This is my favorite car in Michigan. It typically sits dormant in the apartment parking lot, around the corner from us. It’s rusted beyond belief, the trunk bottom has rotted out and the spare tire is almost touching the ground at this point. The whole car is full of junk…fast food wrappers, magazines, dirty clothes. It just sits there in an auto cocoon. Ah yeah!

This week was Administrative Professionals Day. I was overwhelmed with generosity from my coworkers. The doctors gave me that beautiful lavender plant and a $20 Panera Bread gift card. The thoracic research specialist gave me the other plant. The nurses and PA’s gave me some cute serving dishes and prepared a really nice lunch. It’s nice to be recognized for all the hard work I put in during the year…and this place really took good care of me.


This is me smiling at my desk.


Michigan is finally in bloom. The popcorn trees are blooming, the tulips and daffodils are bursting into reds and yellows. We’ve had a solid week of 70 degree plus temperatures. Unfortunately, it’s going to cool down again tomorrow, and we might get another snowfall. I’m hoping to drive to Holland, MI next weekend for the tulip festival. Anyone want to carpool?
