Well hello 2012! About half way down I updated the Big Climb sign up information including how to save $5 off of the entry fee. Our team deserves the break considering how much money we have and will raise for the society!
How many of us are still writing 2011 on things, probably not checks 'cause who uses those anymore... I am very hopeful that the new year is bringing peace and joy to the masses. Sadie, Yvonne, Mikhael and I are making the best of this chance for renewal and although I am not privy to their New Years resolution's I will share mine. I resolve to get rid of quite a nasty temper that seems to have crept into my daily living. I usually resolve to shed a few pounds, get in better shape, do some fix-ups, etc. I chose my title and blog theme today based solely on the 1966 mainly John Lennon song- and he meant it; I'm Only Sleeping. It was released in the US on the Yesterday and Today album, in the UK and everywhere else it was included on the Revolver album. I don't know why Capitol and EMI did those early Beatles mix ups for the US. John was interviewed by a reporter in 1966 and Ms. Cleave gave him the moniker- Laziest man in England. She was his friend! The tune is hauntingly almost hazy due to some George Harrison backwards guitar loops during some key parts of the song. The wizardry conveyed at the time the best technology available to seem sleepy.
I have been sleeping during the day lately, not quite the laziest man in America just yet- I can't sleep a night through for some reason. I might have to resort to some help from Dr. Robert- I will give it a few more nights first. On New Year's eve I took a nasty fall, thought I might have broken my hip or femur. I am still waiting for the X-ray return, but now I think it is just a bad groin pull. It was my fault- Sadie walked in front of me to sniff a new dog- I didn't anticipate... and many a kind sole witnessed and offered me help. Yvonne and Sadie ran a couple of miles to home, got the car and saved me one more time! Since then I have also been in the middle of this newer Chemo protocol called MOAD. I finish the first round next Monday and Tuesday. My blood levels are down, white's are at 1.5; platelets in the 50's if they stay there I should be good to go.
