So-so day.  Lost weight since yesterday's weighing. Trying to eat more, but not keeping up. Had some breakfast and did my short strength training. 

So, today I focused on tasks that needed attention.  Cleaned another master bedroom window and associated items (i.e., blinds) ... have one left to clean.  Then tackled the cabinet near the kitchen door since a new pool equipment remote will be installed (removed the old one too).  Then picked up piles of backyard leaves/debris followed by removing another bucket of lava rocks to put in the back bed (need about three more buckets to finish).  Took the blower to the pool deck.  And,.after quite a bit of delicate digging, found the conduit holding the landscaping lights wire that runs adjacent to the pool's auto drain.  Marked with paint so that contractor can dig around.  Then cleaned juicing equipment and cleaned my nightstand.  Overall, one of the most productive days for me in quite a while.

What?!?  I didn't quite understand and said I'm ready for more chemo ... let's kill this thing inside me.  He explained no and that chemo was no longer ne...

Not doing well documenting my journey. Hope I can get fixed. Another day of low 20s 🥶 Decided it was time to bring a bike out with the goal of riding very soon! Too cold and had to bring out the heat lamps on Monday and Tuesday night.  Got down to at least 19°F. Worked a little outside.   Achieved plenty of walking and trainer miles this week.  Now time to rest in preparation for Friday's infusion therapy.  That's all for now. Anxiety creeping in.
