Friday Morning

Mary's oldest, Tim, arrived yesterday from Tucson with his daughter, Charlize. Thanks to Ingrid, they made it from SJC to the house in comfort and style.

I got home from work about 7 and we ordered pizza. Mary did eat a couple of slices so the appetite is still good. Mary says the pain runs from a 2 to a 6 and this morning before the meds kicked in it was 3 to 4. I wish it were zero but it is what it is.

Daniel, the youngest, arrives from Fort Bliss, El Paso at noon. Mary's daughter is driving up from Pasadena and will get here when we see her.

Frankly, its nice having family here. Mary has trained her kids well so they help with shopping, running errands, cooking and cleaning up the kitchen and that is very nice.

Just to make life interesting, I have come down with a horrible cold. So I am staying away from Mary as much as possible. I don't want her getting a cold on top of everything else!

That's all for now.
