What a tough time you've been having. I hope your PET scan shows a great improvement. Your soup sure sounds yummy!

It's a quiet day for me. I'm taking my nieces dog for a walk, meeting a friend for coffee and then I have core class tonight. I'm hoping the rain holds off for awhile.

I am cleaning today. The missus is going to have several of the neighbor women here for brunch tomorrow. I do most of the house cleaning and that is what I will do for some of the afternoon. Somehow, I will make an attempt at an afternoon (look at that - 4 "a" words in a row!) nap!

Lisa, keep plugging away, you have gone this far - don't quit now.

Glad you're feeling great this week.......just one day at a time. ((((Lisa))))

So happy that things are better. I'm sending prayers and good thoughts for continued improvement and eventual remission.

Welcome! I hope you'll continue to post more often.

Hoping your PET shows the You Are Winning! (At least you FEEL better, and that's important.)

I'm sorry that you have to live in cancer world for a while, but I'm glad you persevered until you found the reason for your symptoms. I hope your PET shows no activity.

Lisa, it's great that you are joining in more actively. Very sorry to hear you have had a tough time health-wise and you have my heartfelt wishes for continued recovery.

Yesterday we returned home from visiting family in Arizona, driving over from CA. I always love seeing the desert, especially the saguaros. Leaving the suburbs for open spaces is very refreshing. The desert has gotten some rain, so it was surprisingly green, especially the ocotillos (which look like giant grass). I have never seen them so green; usually they look dead. It was a wonderful trip, but today it's back to reality: laundry, deal with mail, bank, post office, email, etc.

Welcome to the table again, and Good Job fighting that battle, and I am happy to hear that you are winning. Keep posting and Keep your positive attitude ....we will cheer you on with our best wishes.

I'm sorry to hear you were not well. So glad your up to canning and getting back into things.

Thank you, everyone, for the all the welcoming comments. I'm looking forward to getting to know you folks.

Hi Lisa,

Thanks for coming and sharing with us. Best of luck for a positive outcome on the PET scan. You're certainly heading in the right direction.

How wonderful that you were able to can your tomatoes. I've made Roasted Tomato Soup and froze it in containers; I've never canned any.

Welcome, from Southwestern Ontario. Visit and jump in, often.

I am sorry to hear you have been so sick and so hope now things are much better for you. I have been so busy lately going to my youngest daughter's and canning salsa. We are not finished but today must go get groceries as we are in need of some of the things to make salsa with. We have also canned some jars of tomato juice. I want to can some zucchini jam. I hope we can find the time.

Welcome Lisa! Glad you're here!

I'm sorry you're fighting nhl and will say a little prayer for you. Our friend has been living with it for years and is living a normal life. Welcome!
