Augi's Birthday

Today is my granddaughter August's 5th birthday. She spent the day at the Hardrock Cafe in Edinburg, Scotland. August and her family have been in Europe for the past 6 months. I know this is a great experience for my daughter Jessica and her family but when I found out they may be going I secretly hoped they would not go (for my own selfish reasons.) I miss them very much. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BEAUTIFUL  LITTLE AUGUST. I love you very much!! My daughter Jessica also had a birthday on July 26th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SMART AND BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER, JESSICA. I love you very much and miss you!

Alot has happened in the last couple of weeks. My brother David and his 3 daughters Sierra, Cheyenne, and Asia came to SD on vacation, (and of course to see me.) Anyway we had a great time. It was great to see them. The girls are all growing up so fast. They keep David jumping. They were here for a few days and then took off for the Grand Canyon. Fun!  The same day they left I left for SLC.  I know, I probably should not of gone but my doctor said it would be ok. Of course I did not tell him I would be packing and moving all my belongings into a storage shed. I got alot done. It was so hot I spent the nights at my brother Billy's house. He has my dog Toby and it was great to see him. He was glad to see me too. While there I went to a BBQ at Lisa and Steve's. I got to visit with my mom, Luanna and her family, Jon and his family, Lisa and her family and Tammy and Bruce. It was good to see everyone. On Sunday I went to Tammy and Bruces for dinner. It was a good weekend, in the beginning. Jon and his son Scotty decided to drive me back to SD and make a vacation out of it.  We took off on Monday night and by the time we hit Vegas we were all pretty tired so we got a room at Buffalo Bills in Primm, NV. We left the next morning at about 9:00. It was already hot outside. We got just outside of Barstow, NV and my transmission went out.  After about 1 1/2 hours in the desert we were towed into Barstow.  The price was outrageous to get the tranny fixed so I paid another outrageous price to be towed to SD. I was glad to be back. The rest of the week was fun for Jon and Scotty. Scotty had never seen the ocean so we went down to La Jolla Cove and saw the seals on the rocks. The next day I dropped them off at Sea World for the day.  They flew home on Thursday. Good times. (by the way, thanks Billy, Jon and Scotty for helping me get moved.
 
I thought I had an appointment with Dr. Liu (chemo) on the 22nd but I found out it was on the 20th so needless to say I had to reschedule on Aug. 3rd. I think I will be getting a ct scan that day and alot of bloodwork needed before chemo. I am not sure when I will start my chemo sessions but it will be soon. I will know on the 3rd. I have been going in every week to have the draining area on my abdomin checked. It is coming right along.  All-in-all I am doing well. My goal is to keep my blog up to date in the future. We will see.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUGUST LEONA SINGLETON!  I LOVE YOU!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA LYNN SINGLETON!!!  I LOVE YOU!
