Just a quickie, drive by post. Em got her blood tests done today and everything seems to be full speed ahead for the surgery tomorrow. It was all I thought about today but I made it through the work day.

Now, it's time to fix some dinner, keep an eye on the crawlspace (which tends to fill up with water when it rains and it has been pouring all day), and watch A Midsummer Night's Dream to keep my mind busy.

When the surgery is over tomorrow, I'll post as soon as I get home so you'll know quickly. Cross your fingers for a big cut! Since the oncologist seems to think that's the way it will go, I'm holding onto that with both hands.

Em is in good spirits. She texted me "Mom, this is nothing. I'm not worried". I told her that I would carry the worry for her so she can go into this thing positive minded and worry free. That's my job. I'm the mom.

You are a wonderful mother. How is PK holding up?
