OK...it is so hot, that Toni and I are going on a trip across town to the Courtyard Marriott to cool down tomorrow for two days. Unbelievably warm. Broke a record for...get this... the night time low... of 70 degrees. It will be at least mid-80's until after midnight. That is warm. The daytime high was 95 degrees (and about 35%) humidity. I know that in the plant at which I work, it was 98 degrees on the shop floor. By the way... the average temperature (WITHOUT GLOBAL WARMING) is 76 degrees. There was little or no breeze in the air which makes it sticky. At least in Colorado it still gets into the 50's at night... but noooo... and of course most homes do not have AC. So Toni begged me (er I begged her) to go on a romantic date away from home and into the AC for two days. (Ain't she just great!) ONE MOMENT... unbelievable, a polar bear just walked by mumbling something about moving to Phoenix to get out of the heat.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) she meets with her oncologist, Dr. Linden to discuss her progress and what her next steps may be regarding either a combined chemo/radiation regimen or the typical sandwich path. She is still dealing with a fair amount of lymphedema. Friday (following chemo), she is going to see someone who specializes in lymphedema massage.
Mr. Maggie is doing ok in the heat. I have thought about filling up the tub, just to see if he would get in. That way it would be "his" idea to want a bath, instead of me trying to give him a bath and being shredded to pieces. Toni probably does not support this behavior on my part. She says "No" because "I love you both."
So, we'll report on the weather from our air conditioned room tomorrow with the results of the doctor visit.
