Oy, Cupid pooped at the top of the landing which I didn't see in the early morning gloom. So I tromped all in it on my way out the door with her for the morning walk. And now I've been scrubbing it out of the carpet. A fine way to start the day.

Fortunately this is the crappy (pun intended) stairway carpet which is worn and frayed.

Continued -ma, Epic!!

Shitty way to start the day, David. I wish I didn't know this experience.

Timelies all!

I ended up watching livestreams of the eclipse because I didn't have either eclipse glasses or a viewer. One of my co-workers tried to make a viewer, but it didn't work.

Oh, Epic. Many vibes for the best possible outcome. When do you know the biopsy results? May the treatment be effective with minimal discomfort. So sorry it wasn't better news.

not likely to ever "beat cancer"

Right there with you.

Ugh, Epic, I’m sorry it wasn’t better news but glad they have a plan of attack for you.

Epic (and dcp!), that's a lot, both to take in and to deal with. All the powerful healing ~ma to each of you.

The biopsy isn't even scheduled yet, but my oncologist was talking about seeing me again in a couple of weeks, so presumably they're going to try to get me on the schedule soon.

dcp, I'm sorry you're going through this too. It's such a mixed bag of emotions.

So sorry to hear it, Epic. I hope the new treatment is effective and not brutal on you.
