Donelle,

I never followed up to see if you rec'd the pics! I didn't see any lighthouses

other than that one that was too far away to really capture.

Glad you enjoyed. You are right, coming home was tough. Where I was in

Ko'Olina was beautiful but Jay said there are more beautiful places there that

are just as peaceful. The only justification to coming home is that most of the

folks I met said they were working 2 jobs to pay rent or mortgage.

Very expensive.

Glad you made it to work. I do the same thing, show up when I feel like hell

just to say I was there. You made me laugh about the power nap! I had never

done that prior to the chemo but since then I have!!! Thank God for office

doors that lock! I have a great team so they know that when I say

" I feel fine " that I am probably lying.

Starting the chemo back on Monday. Haven't had it since end of Sept due to the

ulcer stuff. It has been a good break but now I have felt so good the last 2

weeks that I dread going back and feeling like hell again.

I adopted a golden/lab mix this weekend! 1 yr old and never trained. He is a

big puppy to say the least. He will keep me going and off the couch through

these last 6 rounds!

Has anyone heard from Joe Savage? He has been on my mind. Hope he is doing

okay.

Hugs and Prayers to all ~~ donna

Donelle,

It just dawned on me that when I had bronchitis for 3 months, they finally

gave me an inhaler, advair. You may want to check on that. It did the trick

along with a bunch of water - really loosened that stuff up.

You need to feel better - you are one of our " uppers " !!

Hugs to you and Glenn - donna

Thanks, Donna....and btw, I love looking at the pictures of Hawaii and

drooling. I should never go there, b/c I won't come back!!! LOL It's just

soooo

beautiful.

The sunsets/rises are AWESOME!!

I do use Advair for allergies, but am out right now. Will get that script

filled tomorrow!!! I know it will help... I actually am getting a couple

hours sleep at a time at night with the cough syrup with codeine. I actually

went to work today, but didn't really do much work. The bosses were out...and

I just didn't have any energy, but damn I was there!!! LOL I took a 20

min. power nap in my office at my desk at lunchtime... I mean I fell asleep in

seconds!!! I napped on the way to work (not my turn to drive, I might add)

and I napped on the way home. Just a tuckered out lady here...and yes,

drinking the water helps immensely to keep it loosened up which makes it easier

to

cough. Thanks for reminding me about the Advair!!

Lots of hugs and prayers, Donelle
