Well, I guess I went to bed too early last night because here I am at 4:00 am...in the last 2 days I worked about 23 hours...that is way more than I am used to doing these days so it really took it's toll. On top of that I was "entertaining" customers and always being "on" really seems to cause you to exert a great deal more energy....anyway - it all went well but again I was glad to see them to the front door and on their way back to PA!
Our weekend was great. Tyler and Bret decided to stay home to attend the big Strawberry Hill 4th of July party and then build our new shed. It's a great looking shed that said it would take 2 men approx. 4-5 hours to install. They started on Saturday and just finished with the roof last night...yikes...I think I am even more glad that I was out of town. I feel bad for Tyler...he didn't have much of a fun weekend but I think he enjoyed spending that time with Bret.
Jillian and I enjoyed spending time with everyone at Mohican. If you have not been there I will tell you that it is very peaceful and remote...no cell phones, no newspapers....just peaceful. I had forgotten how beautiful it is to look out over the hills and the lake. We really had nice weather. We went to see a great fireworks display on Friday night, spent most of our time during the day around the pool and in the evenings we all gathered around the fire pit to make s'mores - yummy! It's just nice to have all of our family there...and extended family (friends) and see everyone come together in the evenings to laugh and just spent quality time together - these are the good things in life!!! Jillian was actually on pretty good behavior for the majority of the trip...Kay and Amanda helped out with her a bunch so I think they were able to help diffuse some potential meltdowns. We were up late every night and up early in the mornings so by the time we got home on Sunday I was dead tired...I fell asleep at 6:30 and woke up at 6:45 on Monday....guess my body is still trying to get it's strength back.....
The Mohican area has a lot of special memories for me....when I was in Junior High and High School we used to go to Church Camp just over the hill from the resort. We almost always went in January...BBrrrr. Early in the mornings we would bundle up and hike over the hill to the resort...maybe it was a mountain...sure felt like it. Once we were at the resort we could swim, play in the game room and just run crazy in the place because there was never really anyone there at that time of year....then we would pack up, bundle up and head up and over the hill again to get back to camp. Any time I am there now I enjoy remembering all those times being there as a kid....
Foobs are doing just fine...still rock hard but each day a little less sore...
Hair seems to be coming in faster...I am more comfortable now being out "uncovered" and don't notice so many people staring at me....
Today I go for another MUGA (heart test) to be sure that the Herceptin is not damaging my heart...let's hope for good results!! I had a great visit with Dr. B. last week...will write more about that later...think I will try to get a little more sleep in before work...have a good day!

4:12 am - HHHHmmmmm I remember you having many of those days in the past. You've put your body thru the ringer it sounds like this past weekend. Good times. Wonderful memories. That's the way to do it - keep the guys home working and you and Jillian go play! :) What Bret is teaching Tyler will be wonderful for him in the future... Quite the handy man! I'm glad you got a quick get-away - but all those working hours you put it - - - whew, that's enough to wear me out just thinking about it! I lost count on my birthday many years ago - that that would be about right! hehe..... Well, hope you have a great rest of the week. Mom and Dad are on their way - so totally looking forward to that! Take care. Love you. Sue
We too enjoyed spending some "down" time with you and Jillian. Seems whenever we get together there is always so much going on and its nice to be confined to one place for a few days and just chat with everyone and listen to their "life" stories. Always a good time though! And I know I said it before but I'll say it again, your hair looks great and totally natural!For as hot as it has been, short hair is definately in! Love you! Kay
