It has been a really nice to have a three day weekend. Poor Glenn had yesterday off but had to go into work this afternoon and now won't get home until midnight.......BUT he will be off tomorrow. The girls and I went to the Kavanagh's house to celebrate July 4th. Gerry made grilled chicken, hamburgers and hotdogs...yum! It was really hot but very fun. Yesterday, I went to the Atrium Day Spa and got my facial. My skin felt so great afterwards and the hot stone massage I got on my shoulders and neck was really relaxing. Before I left, I scheduled a glycolic peel for my face as soon as I get back from vacation. I'll probably need it after all of the sun exposure. Tomorrow, we'll just kick back and relax and enjoy our last day off. The pool is calling my name!

We tried to make the best of it but he just felt crummy. He went to the doctor on Tuesday and the doctor said that he sounded like he might have pneumonia so he sent him over for some x-rays of his chest. The doctor's office finally called on Friday and told him he definitely had pneumonia and so they put him on antibiotics. In the meantime, I also caught a cough and because this is the contagious kind of pneumonia, I had to go to the doctor to see if the cough that I had was also pneumonia. He knew right off that I didn't but he did put me on the same antibiotic "just in case" and also to help get rid of the cough. I also had my monthly MD Anderson appointment on Friday and they took blood to run tests on the molecula
