Though not where I want to be.

Will be going through my eighth chem treatment on Tuesday. And a PET scan will likely follow the next week to see where I am. Then I think another four chemo treatments.

I'm not on the computer like I use to be. It is mostly on my cell phone. Trying to do more.

Still able to do our Retirement Chapter newsletter and mailing. I've gotten some newsletter volunteers to know the process to fold the newsletters and track them. I still function as the Retiree Chapter Recording Secretary.
