3/33 = 9% - Only 30 more treatments to go
While driving around today, I heard that our grocery store was
selling pumpkins for 9¢ a pound. This was the same store that
sold them for 8¢ a pound last year. (Click for story) But, it’s
still the cheapest place around.
One of the rules that we have is that in order to pick out a
pumpkin, you have to first be able to lift it. This year, the
pumpkins in this batch were huge. We dug and dug and couldn’t
find one that son #4 could lift. (or that we wanted him to try)
So, we bent the rules a little and ‘helped’ him lift his 18
pound pumpkin. With our 6 pumpkins, we ended up with over 125
pounds this year. Good thing we’ve got another family night or
two to cut them up and decorate them!
For those of you who get this as email...
Enjoy today’s Jokes!

Treatment update: son #4 was none too happy during yesterday’s
treatment. The only excuse he came up with was “dad didn’t come,
so I was scared.” So, I went with him today. He just played
around and didn’t seem to notice I was there. But, he acted a
lot calmer when they put him under today. His left ear is
starting to turn red. Something to ask about tomorrow.

Hi, Marty & gang--
Thinking of you and praying for #4 muchly...our G-bone hates when Daddy doesn't come to the hospital, but after a full year of there & back he just can't come every time...he knows how you feel about that one. I don't like it much either! ; )
By now you're down one more treatment...any grand fandango planned for the end, something to look forward to (other than the bliss of "done"?)?
Have fun with the pumpkins--with 125 lbs of pumpkin, hope you all love pumpkin seeds!
best,
