Sunday Sunday

This weekend was full with Julianna's sleepover party on Friday night preceded by parent/teacher conferences for both girls. Saturday we were invited out to brunch and Ken and Adele's but we were unable to go. Doug is really freaking out about the new house and getting things done and sometimes feeling really sorry for himself saying he feels like "either the maid or the contractor". I feel like the big lump that doesn't have full use of her right arm because of a lot of fluid buildup where the incision is and the fact that the pneumonia shot wreaked absolute havoc (lots of pain and numbness) to the same arm. we had a showing at 2pm on Saturday - another Doug freak-out about getting things done - and an open house today. We spent the day running around while Doug was with John ripping apart the upstairs bathroom. There were no more fliers on the dining room table when I came back so hopefully we had a successful open house. We also have a renter interested from Jan - Apr. We'll see. Nothing happening this week except work on new house, getting a filling fixed and a small cavity filled, hopefully getting the damn wall-paper finally finished and down in Julianna's room, then the anti-Thanksgiving on Wednesday with Liz and the kids, Thanksgiving meal with the cousins, then meeting with my medical oncologist on Friday to set up a schedule for chemo...
