Despite overflowing optimism...Roger had back to back bad days Sunday and today.  Rough nights, vomiting, and a general inability to get comfortable.  So basically, he "checked out" for the past two days and either rested on the sofa or in bed.  Two quiet days.  You never can predict.  I'm starting to think we are jinxing ourselves when we expect good days.  We need to go into each day planning for the worse and then be happily surprised when the random good day makes an appearance.  Sounds counter-intuitive.  I guess all of life is about managing expectations. 

I don't have much else for you.  The weekend was otherwise very domestic...cleaning house, doing laundry, watching the random nasty reality TV.   What a wild couple we have become!  We did manage to get a walk in this evening as the temperatures finally warmed up to the upper 40's!!  Heat wave!!!!!!!

Roger has another doctor's appt this week.  Once he gets all these appointments knocked out, we'll start making plans for sending him to warmer parts.  I think we are going to try to get away for a small vacation to try to reconnect away from all this health care stuff and maybe have a little fun in the process.  We haven't decided where at this point...and obviously we need to play it by ear depending on how Roger is feeling. 

Have a great week.  I look forward to sharing more as the week progresses.  xxooxxo ~ a
