CONVENTION BOUND
Next week we are going to attend a church convention in Louisville, Kentucky. It's not far from home--about a 2 hour drive. And we're staying very close to the Convention Center at a Marriott downtown. I'm hoping Karon will be up to all this. But she really wants to go and is looking forward to it. She should have had another chemo treatment this coming Wednesday but was allowed to put it off a week. I certainly hope she's feeling better by the time we leave Tuesday. She hasn't bounced back from her last treatment very well. She has no energy and those awful sores in her mouth and throat are so painful. The mouth sores look awful, too. Every night when she gets home from work she hits her chair and sleeps there until 9:30 - or 10. I try, but can't rouse her much sooner than that.
The Convention is over Friday noon. We're going to Troy, Ohio, to visit some friends who recently moved there from Indy. We'll be home Saturday afternoon. I've arranged for a guest speaker for Sunday, July 2nd, so we won't have to think about preparations while we are gone or just after we get back.
February of 2005 I bought a 1996 Toyota Camry. I really like the car. I like that it has a radio/tape/CD player. I am just now getting the CD player fixed. People said it didn't have a CD player but all the buttons were there and a slot to insert the CD. Sure enough, it has a player. It should be repaired today so I can get it put back it. It will be nice to have a car CD player rather than my portable walkman I use when I want to play CDs in the car--which I do a lot!
Don't know if I'll post again before we leave for Convention or not. I'm off all next week. Karon has to work a few hours Monday. That's all right because I can use the day to get us ready for the trip. If I don't post before, look for me when I return from the trip. Hopefully I'll have some internet access while I am gone.
