On the road again

17 inches of snow
Robert has been out and, using the snow blower, cleared
a path to the barn and a path out for the VAN. We still
hope to be on our way in the morning. Florida is looking
better and better.
We are very disappointed that Keating is trapped in the
UK and won't be joining us. She is terribly disappointed,
too. The bureaucracy moves too slowly. She'd assumed
six weeks would be enough to get her new visa and passport.
Not to be...the aim of the bureaucracy is to have those
things done in six months. She may leave the country, but
then she may not return.
I'll try and update this regularly on our trip. All for
now.

A new year
It's been a month since I made an entry to this
blog. The Holidays have come and gone and that
is always a good feeling.
Robert has been on chemotherapy for a month or
more. He has had no overt symptoms, but he is
still anemic and that means his energy level is
very low and the chemo has exacerbated that.
Currently he is also struggling with gout. Because
of the chemo, his loss of weight and stamina, the
original prescription was too strong and caused
him to be very dizzy. He spent most of three hours
lying on the couch, too dizzy to do anything.
Connie and I have gotten together several times.
It is fun having her so close. 70 miles is not
really close, but a heck of a lot closer than
Wichita or Folsom...Last week I went to Parker
to wait with her for her new loom to arrive.
By the time I got there it had been delivered
FOB and she had managed to get the packing off
and somehow gotten it into her weaving room!
Robert and I leave soon for Florida and Cocoa
Beach where the mini family reunion is to be
held. I'm happy to be leaving.
The snow we had a month ago is still around
in patches and very, very black from soot. The
side walk has new soot stains. This is all
from the fire in 2010.
