Weekly Charge Vol.13

Saw the doc yesterday, my white count was 1.2, my nutrafills were 500 (they need to 1000), and my platelets were 59. I did gain 2 lbs to 152 lbs. We are doing chemo agian this week but I have to stay home until Monday. But I am finally caught up with Battlestar Galatica.

She Doesn't Hate Me!

I had come to the understanding that every relationship I had had in the past was based on getting them to love me. This didn't have any good results, so a change was needed. I decided the change in this new relationship with the cute Christian girl (let's call her Jen), was that I wasn't going to focus on getting her to love me. My new theory was to get her not to hate me.

To my surprise it worked! I mean before I knew it it was the sixth month mark and she still didn't hate me! In fact she really liked me! The best part was I really liked her.

To test how well she liked me I thought I would ask her if she wanted to look at rings. Her reply shocked me. She agreed...

The Weekly Charger Vol.12

Well I'm being poisoned as I type. My white count was 1.4 and red count was 700. They asked if I wanted to chance it and have chemo, I agreed. If I don't go anywhere till Sunday or Monday I should be fine. It will mean I wont be able to go to the movies for a couple of months. And May is packed with movies I want to see.

There is an upside, we got our allowance from crazy uncle Bush and we bought a pool to do our part in the whole economy stimulation. So I will have to stay home and swim all day I guess. Darn!!!!!

Keep up the good thoughts!

Change It Makes Cents!

I have always been of the mind set that communication is the most important thing in any relationship. I am wrong.

What I had been doing on the internet to meet women and to grow socially was not working. So I made a change, I started an eHarmony account. This was a bigger change then I realized at the time, for I was trusting on someone else's judgment over my own in finding women to date.

Well that turned out to be a very good decision. I met a shy cute girl who was intelligent, goal oriented, independent, Christian, and did I mention cute.

I have come to understand that the most important thing in any relationship, or rather the core thread in any relation ship is change. After a few months of dating this cute Christian girl, I began to notice that I was analyzing the marriages and long relationships around me. I had always analyzed my own relationships but never others.

What I saw was change in every one. Weather for bad or better every one changed in there core. This reminds me of what happens when one comes to Christ:
Corinthians II 5:17a "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature..."
We change!

I was changing and I had to make a choice weather for bad or better...

The Weekly Charge Vol. 11 with Sir Lance

Last Thursday we added a new member to our family, a 7 month old King Charles Caviler named Lance. He's a puppy mill rescue, so he's shy and doesn't know a lot of common dog things like what treats are. Molly (our Westy) lays a heavy hand on him when it comes to food or toys. The thing I've learned the most is that Molly is a really dominant dog. She walks around with the attitude that the world exists because she wants it to.

We got the PET scan results and they show pretty much what the CT showed, with some more decrease in the lymph sites in my chest and abdomen. My counts are good except for my platelets so no chemo this week, but next week we're going back to a full dose.

As for the story, well I'll try to get the next chapter out this week.
