Well, surgery today was postponed until the 24th, at 3 p.m. The doc's office called yesterday, asking if I'd be ok to do this, as someone had come in with a Very Serious Issue, that needed to be removed immediately. We gots the melanoma in our family, so I reckon this is just a little pay it forward and hope for the person who needed immediate surgery.

N will be able to cover Maeve on the 24th, and I have a couple more spots that should be biopsy'd, stat, so we'll do the biopsies this week, and we'll know if I need more stuff dug out on the 24th. Really, it seems this works out better.

And, it will give me some time to find some of the homeopathic items Ms. Streamsandpools recommended (thank you, dear!).

Lorena gets on a train today at 2:40. We walked up the the local bookstore that I love (Adventures for Kids) and picked up a couple books for our kidlets. Maeve will be exceedingly pleased to read an entire book full of monkeys doing monkey things. :) Lorena has been forcing me (unintentionally) to go on longer, more strenuous walks since she's been here, and the weather's turned all balmy and sweet, so this has been a really good thing for me, especially since I've had so little sleep lately and it reallllllly tanks my mood to be sleep-deprived.

Now, I HOPE to keep it up once she's gone. Need to find the support to make it happen.
