Dom -

Yesterday, I went into school briefly to deliver some "goods." I came out with a plate of delicious chocolate chip cookies cooked by Danielle Rynearson. How she cooked them so fast, I can't even guess. But, if that's the way it works, I'll have to visit work more often.

Today Sue Dunnigan brought over some delicious soup. It's going to be gone by the time you get home Dom, sorry. Along with it came 2 quiches (great, now when I only want eggs, I can eat those instead of my lousy omelets that I have to clean up after too.

How supportive everyone at work has been. I've received many kind cards and e-mails.

I miss work.

Clearly Jen is feeling much better.  I attribute part of this to the Chemo therapy she is getting.  But I believe that the greater affect is coming from the positive force that is being direct toward her from all of you!  I know that it seems silly to say, but it has been my experience that there are multiple parts to any situation.  Everyone pays attention to the “sizzle” (in this case the Chemo) when it is the meat (your positive energy) that really makes a difference.  Do not get me wrong, a steak is made up of both sizzle and meat!  That is what makes it good!  So in short, everybody please keep up the good work!!  You are our Dream Team.

A couple of items have been brought to my attention.  First I want everyone to know that there is no “requirement” to enter the cooking contest.  Everything that everyone has done is a big help.  The “contest” is my way of putting some fun into an otherwise unpleasant situation.  And I think it works!  Today and old friend from the neighborhood stopped in to see Jen.  I have not seen her in years.  She had joked that the contest was out of her “league”.  Nonsense I told her.  It is all in fun.

Secondly some of you have expressed disappoint when I fail to post for a day or two.  This occurs because I have no news on Jenny (verse other things) to report.  I appreciate you all reading and enjoying my b*llsh*t but I do not want to bore you either.  I will do my best to keep you all up to date while at the same time keeping those darn socks in line.  Damn things are looking to form a union!  How obscured is that!

Please take care of each other as you have been taking care of Jen and me.
