Upon returning home Yeah, we're back.  We left out of Orlando around 6:30p Wednesday after the Wreckers final game (which they lost).  During that game Jesse made a wonderful outfield catch so he was pumped up all the way home - we finally arrived on Cypress Street around 3:00a yesterday.  All in all, a great trip. I got up yesterday in plenty of time to drive Jinni over to her 9th post-surgery chemo treatment.  She has now recieved two of the lower dosages of Taxatere and her body is tolerating it remarkably well.  The other chemo related development is that she went ahead and got her head shaved while we were gone because her hair was thinning very quickly.  I suppose if you are going to have a shaved head, the current hot weather is a good time to improve one's cranial ventilation.  She looks good (nearly) bald - just as she did the last time she lost her hair back in January.  Three more treatments to go and we will be shed of that part of our lives. Other than that I have not stopped since awakening yesterday morning.  I have been attempting to return all the phone calls and reply to all of the emails I received over the past 10 days.  The correspondence was a healthy mix of a business, personal and public nature.  If I still owe you a reply - I'll get to it. *********************** I have been keeping up with all of the local goings-on and plan to enter into the various frays when I find a good jumping-on point.  But right now I'm still in a vacation state of mind when it comes to all of the important stuff happening in our little burg. The big question is if I have decided to run for City Council or not?  I have made up my mind both ways about seven times now which gives me pause.  A good friend sagely advised me yesterday that unless I am 100% committed to the process I should probably wait.  Well I've been 100% as recently as yesterday, and then my resolve gets kicked down a notch or two when I let the realities of my current station in life seep back into the big picture. So, you'll know when I know. 11:07:32 AM     comments to the above post so far, join in.
