We're happy, no ecstatic, to say that I had a clean PET scan about two weeks ago. Sorry for not posting it a bit sooner.
Shannon is getting back into soccer on Thursday nights. Yeaaaaahh!! (It's midnight and she's still out for a pint with the old timers from her team as I write.) There is some normalcy reentering our lives. Playing with the kids is getting much better each day. Eating is a little weird for me, smaller meals a little more often. I miss chugging a cold beer on a hot day. Small sacrifice I guess.So I guess it's about time to become a productive member of society again. Any suggestions?
At the time of the diagnosis last year, I was staying home with Molly 3 days a week and doing projects the rest of the time. With the addition of Dave, Kristine and Logan Nixon (cousins from the frigid North,) to the extended household, I've been relieved of my stay-at-home duties. Logan and Molly have a beautiful kind of tug-of-war relationship. Kristine has Ian and Miles developing their craft skills and their listening skills as well. (A work in progress.)
Actually I'm going to get started on a new adventure if my friend will still have me. I've been approached to design and see through the construction of a home for a friend who invested wisely in a little cottage across the street from the water in West Seattle. I have some sketches developed and a lot more to get down on paper. Most of you know that I've carried a passion for Architecture for.......ever.
Wish me luck.Keep in touch, everyone, and we will too.
Dave and Shannon
