I took a suitcase out of the closet. I decided that I'll wear something
I already have, so I will start trying clothes on this weekend. Next
week, I'll start checking the weather reports. If it's in the sixties,
I'll need jackets. Can't do cold weather any more.

I'll also have to make more cookies for the radiation techs. I spoiled
them with the last batch, but it's my way of thanking them for their
care and concern.

I'm also getting a little excited about my trip to Europe in early November.

My son and his wife and little girl are coming down for Thanksgiving and
my 17 year-old granddaughter is coming for Christmas break. It will be
so nice to have someone to cook for again.

I am also planning to have a big barbecue for all of the people who
helped me by driving me, calling me and other things as my way of
thanking them. I'll probably do that in early December.

My friend, Dyan, who has an annual Chanukah party at my house where I do
the brisket and latkes, someone brings salad, someone brings dessert and
everyone brings wine, has informed me that we are having the party this
year. It will be 12/20.

I just want to be busy.
