Okay we're getting a little more rain here. I think someone slipped Mother Nature a diuretic somehow. Anyway she has been dumping on us for many a day now. This morning I measured right at two inches in the bucket and it's still pouring. Fortunately we have not nor have we in the past several days planned a parade.

I'm thinking that we have never planned a parade. We had 23 inches of snow one time and couldn't get out for three days and the electricity went out for several hours. During that time, with nothing else to do, I did parade around Glenda naked as she sat warming in front of the fireplace. That turned out to be pretty much a waste of time and I liked to froze my butt off. I think the very cold weather may have contributed somewhat to the disinterest. Lets see if I've got that right, heat expands and cold contracts..........Yep, I believe that the cold was the problem.

Mary Jo took Glenda for her 15th treatment yesterday and Ruthie is going to take her for her 16th treatment today. Yep, after today she will be half finished with the treatments. I'm thinking that we are in between happy times. The treatments aren't too bad in the begining then they start to burn the area and tire her leg. The good or better times should be back but it may take as many as six weeks or three weeks after the last treatment before we see them.
