Glad your hubby is pain free and hope this continues.
I had dinner with Will and his youngest son (now 19), he had non Hodgkins lymphoma when he was 7. I wasn't thinking about that but catching Will up on the Bitches thread and also how your hubby was doing Connie. And Will's son A had these recommendations for making chemotherapy more bearable - a body pillow (to hug and also lay against), Ativan, Honeycombs cereal, Star Wars (especially The Empire Strikes Back, or as he put it "Episode 5"), Harry Potter and if he can get it - access to lots of therapy dogs at one time. Because if you pet one the others get jealous and all come over to be petted.
I told him I'd pass that along in case any of it might help.
Also in work news I got a lapel pin! I've gotten other ones, but this is the "President's Club". I had no idea what it was and someone just handed it to me and wandered off so I had to track down why I got it.
I was named MVP for my division (not department but sub department I guess) for the going above and beyond during the holiday rush.
It's a little thing but it's cool to have.
And then I realized I gave someone the wrong information over the phone but it started with one question and then she kept adding questions and I couldn't get someone more knowledgeable on the phone and she didn't want to leave a message because she needed an answer in about half an hour and I couldn't promise that someone could get back to her. I think she could have some of what she wanted just not all.

MVP sounds like more than a little thing. That's great!
That's great, askye - your hard work deserves recognition! It seems odd that they make so little fuss over that that you had no idea that you were getting recognized, though.
There were several other people getting the pins and I think they made an announcement during a morning meeting, and I've been working closing shifts lately.
This is a sad lonely thread and I am buried in work. I would make it better otherwise.
Go, askye!

I've got nothing. My Spring allergies have kicked in despite the fact that it is still below freezing, and I can't brain.
I'm at work and WAY TOO BUSY. Not too busy for Buffistas, but too busy to think.
Work is actually slow for me. Or I just don't have the motivation to have that go get 'em attitude.

I have both. I'd like to go over my lines, but hauling out a highlighted script in the middle of work would probably send the wrong message.
