Lily and Lucy play at Millenium Park in Chicago. They are doing just fine, obviously.

07/11/2008 Gardening @ Night #17

Today and yesterday I ran 4.5 miles. Pretty good. Wish I'd done 5 today, oh well. Yesterday I saw Annika walking 8 and today Ellen was out there.

This week Kyle and I went to see 2 concerts so I'm pooped. First one was the Fleetfoxes on Monday night (their harmonies are sooooo sweet), then second was No Age (a punk revival band, so fun) on Tuesday with Marta and Bill Scher. I can't imagine two more different bands. Opening for No Age was this very etherial band called High Places a boy/girl two piece band that describes themselves as Hawaiian, Hardcore, Chinese pop. They were such a find.

This week I also had another avastin infusion an visit with Claudine Isaacs, my oncologist. I talked to her about Zometa a bone density drug that I may be able to take. Supposedly, it helps prevent recurrence for breast cancer, too. Then also saw Dr. Flax for the first time since December's follow up to surgery. He said I looked good. I have no mammos to gram so no more of those ever. My PT told me that I've now graduated from her. I should go take some pallates. Next week I have Dr. Rubin my OBGYN and Dr. Chang my plastic who is moving out of state. I'll miss him so much! I really liked him. He is kind of young and doesn't appear to have a family of his own. He's moving "back" to NYC. He has such a nice laugh. I will idealize him into the future, I'm certain of it.

To end my health report, I'll mention I'm keeping up with the laundry so I must be doing fine, just now.

We had so much fun in Chicago for July 4rth visiting Kyle's family and old friends. Check out my eyebrows.



Here's Lil and Lu with strong stomachs at the carnival in Lake Zurich.
