"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

David, I'm a bit exhausted reading your update. I hope the infusion went well, and that you have chocolate cocktails aplenty.

No chocolate in my cocktails, but they were plentiful.

JZ is doing much better this morning than last time, so they seem to have successfully tweaked her cocktail with better anti-nausea meds.

Back to the center tomorrow to remove the infusion pump. Then we're getting a bonus infusion of iron on Wednesday but that should be fairly quick. Twenty minute drive there, twenty minutes to fill her with rusty nails and whatnot, stick some diagnostic fridge magnets on her and then twenty minutes home.

We watched Poker Face & Owl House last night which was exactly the right amount of entertainment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

...guys, I think I just paid for my very own real-life Saw experience. But with an included handicraft!

Ha!

That sounds like a lot, meara. I hope your parents appreciate it!

That sounds like a nice day, askye.

My dinner plans did get cancelled, so now I have to figure out what to have for dinner! I don't have enough ingredients in the house, and I don't really feel like going out, but it is getting warmer. It should get up to 15 by mid-afternoon!

Glad to hear that!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

That's excellent!

Thrive to spite them

YAY glad to hear.

So the banana bread is going to be interesting. At some point the oven got shut off, w hich is good because I completely forgot I was baking anything. But the outside seems to be done and the interior is not. So I turned the oven back on and I'm going to hope for the best. And remember that there is something in there.

Banana bread can't be bad!

It's funny, I never order in, but you are totally right.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Laura, we have an admission date of the 13th. Still have forms to fill out, and there's a virtual pre-admission meeting on Monday.

Glad to hear JZ found this infusion more palatable!

Wonder of wonders, my washer/dryer set did appear, first thing this morning! The dryer part at least appears to be working—I'll buy some detergent and test the washer tomorrow when the laundry room/outbuilding doesn't feel like a meat locker.

Our wings are not tired.

Good to hear that the infusion went better this round.

Woooot! Clean clothes are in Matt's future!

Sheryl, I hope the pre-admission meeting answers any questions you and Gary may have. All the ~ma that this works out for your family.

Banana bread can't be bad!

Truthiness!

After way too many topples off the wagon tonight is healthy mahi in a jerk run, with roasted Brussels sprouts and red peppers. Smells mighty tasty. Waiting for DH to get home from dog park before I put the fish in the oven.
