I had a follow-up with the PA at the oncologist's office today. nothing really new came of it, except for the OK to return to work Friday. That will be nice, as I think I'm ready to go back.
Nancy and I drove to Grand Rapids right after the appointment. Traffic on 294 was heavy, with a lot of trucks on the road down near where I-80 and 294 come together. As my dad used to say, "I wish I had a nickel for every truck I saw on the road!" Of course, that's getting rather dated, so perhaps it should now go up to a buck, or five bucks. "I wish I had a fin for every truck I saw on the road today!"
We went out for a nice dinner tonight at a place called "Rose's" on Reeds Lake, a short walk from the kid's house. I was able to eat a cheeseburger without much of an issue at all, though the top of the bun was removed, as I went at it with a knife and fork. Used ketchup, too, though sometimes it stung me pretty good when it got in along the right side of my mouth, in the back. I'm hoping this issue fades away soon, but it may still be a month before it heals. We'll see.
In any case, we're here in GR for the better part of three days, returning home Thursday afternoon. So, nothing much to report, other than Matt and Amy are fine and the grandchildren are adorable!
