Good morning! Michelle and I watched the 2nd half of the "Flash Forward" pilot. Intriguing series!
Good news: today should be sunny and reasonably warm for autumn. The bad news: today I join Michelle for our "chemotherapy education" session. She's also getting a cholesterol check and a bone scan this morning.
Michelle has dropped the boys off and is getting a little blood work for cholesterol screening. She's glad it's on the early side because the test has the usual fasting requirement. I'm VPN'd into work till noon.
You know if you read the back of just about any common medicine (aspirin, tylenol, the birth control pill, etc) the potential side effects can scare you away. Nevertheless learning about the potential side effects of modern chemotherapy is a little unsettling. I'd appreciate prayers that Michelle handles it well starting next month. She's a strong lady, but every person handles it differently.
Gorgeous weather on the drive home from oncology. Back to debugging work for the rest of the afternoon.
Downloaded episode 2 of ABC's "FlashForward". Hopefully we'll watch it tonight once the boys are down. I also purchased the audio book of "An Echo in the Bone" for Michelle. 46 hours! If that doesn't help her through the winter...
After putting the boys to bed, Michelle, Claire, Abby and I watched episode 2 of FlashForward. I think I got Claire hooked. ;-) Good night all!

The Cruelty of Casual Canonizations
Comment: Food for thought at the next funeral you attend...
Excerpt: In recent years it has become commonplace to turn funerals into casual canonizations. “Bob is in a better place,” we’re told, which, if taken literally, can only mean Heaven, as neither Hell nor Purgatory are better places than earth.
