Then on to Jackson. Debbie drove me in her car today. The trips up and back were beautiful with the new snow. It hardly seems like any time since I last was posting snow pictures. Coming to the rim there began to be fog which made for yet another type of beautiful scenery.
Hate to keep writing same same so won't go into a bunch of other details. We made it up there on time, and got right in the chair. The port behaved a little better today and let Lisa draw blood from the port, but they still had to use the clot buster. She also had to stick me in the hand for some of the blood. My blood tests were better. Also the protime test showed that now my blood is too thick so the dose of coumadin and was adjusted accordingly.
Debbie went off shopping and sightseeing. She got a new DVD player because her old one went kaput. She got my prescription and did the grocery shopping while I was in the hospital, so we didn't have to stop after for that. A quilt guild from Salt Lake had sent 100 lap quilts or baby quilts to distribute to the cancer patients. So I was given a beautiful quilt and some bulbs for the garden - I chose tulips and daffodils. I envisioned going to plant them in the flower beds of the new house.
I was finished by 2:30 today, one of the shortest ever times. There were only two of us patients there so we had the nurses all to ourselves. Michael from Big Piney was there. I've seen her quite a few times along with her son and husband. I was pretty devastated as was she to learn that her treatments weren't working, but they were starting her on a new kind of chemo. She will be in my thoughts and hope that her new treatment will work better.
Debbie wasn't back by the time I got the pump on, so I went out and checked email on the computer in the waiting room. She soon came and we started on home. James called us about as we got to Cora and asked us to stop by the office. I was all exited that the buyer had accepted the offer on the house. But soon to find out that they had not, and would not ever give a counter offer. All the Realtors had agreed that we were very close to what the appraised value would be, but she had paid quite a bit more for it when she bought it and said that the furniture cost $20,000. Well, we all know what happens to the price of furniture once you take it home.
We would still certainly be interested in the South Fork house if her realtor could convince her that we should not be required to pay her bills. I do love the house. So we decided to go to our second favorite home on Arrowhead - brand new up toward Fremont Lake. We will have to furnish it, and have it fenced right away.
Tomorrow we have appointments with our accountant, the bank and with James to go and show Debbie the Arrowhead house and get on with the job of finding a place to buy. And the dogs each have a bath appointment at noon which hopefully won't take too long. So it will be up and driving to town again, and then again on Thursday to get the port off. I'm going to put a half a pork loin roast in the crock pot in the morning so some dinner will be ready when we get back home.
