Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to you all! Today I had an appointment with my oncologist, Dr. Sweet. We did not have much to discuss other than the fact that he wants me to have an ultrasound performed on my abdomen as something showed up on my PET scan in my ovaries. He seems to think that it is really nothing to be worried about but wants to proceed on the side of caution. He also has put an order in for me to have some bloodwork done to see how I have recovered from chemo - since I have not had any blood work performed since the day before my last chemo. I will keep you posted on the results of the ultrasound once I have it done.

I did have an short conversation about education with Dr. Sweet and it turns out that his son will soon attend the school that Kim now teaches at. He did confess that he was unfamiliar with the names of any of the teachers that his daughter had while there. I was shocked and told him that he had 8 weeks (when I am scheduled to see him again) to learn the names of the teachers his kids have now because I would be quizzing him and he did not seem too enthused. I am usually an optimistic person, however, I have a feeling that he is gonna fail.

Once I was done with all of my doctor stuff I was able to spend some time at Rolando with the girls. I was a kindergarten helper mom before lunch and a first grade helper mom after lunch. I love spending time in their classrooms - not like I don't spend enough time in the classroom as it is. I was also able to squeeze in some time to buy two new scarves. I think I am addicated to them. I will be sporting one of them tomorrow.

Well, as I get ready to go to bed I just wanted to report that this has been a pretty good day. Not very eventfull, but good, actually GREAT. Hey, I am alive, free of disease, have an AWESOME family, and AWESOME friends, that's why everyday is GREAT. Ramon gave me some beautiful roses that smell amazing, the girls came home with a gazillion Valentine's, and I have been sitting here composing this post for about the last hour. That about the extent of our celebration. That's how our Valentine's Day went. Good night.
