     Hey a pretty good sleep last night again, no pain, slept 2 hours, nature call.
Slept 3 hours nature call,  about another 2-3 hour shift then up at 5 am feels pretty good. Suzie's sister Rose had a nice Duvet that they don't use, too hot for them. We tried it out and very warm but we found it perfect we can now open out bedroom window for fresh air that we are used to for a cool bedroom at night.
     Got some cereal, juice and coffee into me, some computing done, then laid down for a 1/2 hour just because I can. I get tired very quickly. At 8 am Suzie whipped in The Stratford Walmart for a Duvet cover, then to Pettigrews Garage Plattsville to have our winter tires installed and car serviced for 9 am.
winter tires installed and car serviced
as ready as the car can be for the winter
    Shortly after 10 am #1 daughter Kim arrived to help do some packing like she had planned. A few minutes later Suzie got back from Pettigrew's and they set to work. First thing on the agenda they put the cover on the duvet that Suzie picked up this morning, hey. I love the colour and will be so much easier to wash, Then they packed and packed mostly pantry stuff, 6 cupboards 4 large boxes, moving ahead more progress.
      Then shortly after noon Kim went down the road to Tim Hortons, got herself some soup, toasted cinnamon raisin bagel w/cream cheese for me and a chicken wrap for Suzie.
the duvet cover is like one big pillow case
push. pull and shake
love the colors perfect for our new apartment
Kim and I just before she left
so much wonderful help
        We chatted for a bit then she headed back home another 2.5 hour drive for her. Thanks Kim for your help and tasty lunch for us. About 1:30 she left so we both laid down for a 90 minute rest. Re energized again.
       Feeling rested again on a cold rainy day we relaxed, some reading and toasty warm not much more we wanted to do today read for a while then heat up the rest of the shepherds pie Kim made  for us. This sure hit the spot again.
this did the trick along with some Ensure
     That was it for another pain free day, getting more packing done, car serviced and relaxing moving ahead. Supper done wrap up this using relax a bit take my meds and look forward to a pain free good night's sleep.
     Thanks for joins us today only 8 more sleeps and we can move into our new apartment. Then winterize our coach and store it.

  4. That's a long driving day for Kim, kudos to your loving daughter! Duvet looks great, how cold will it need to get before you close the bedroom window?
    Lets hope the pain free days and good nights rest continue!

    1. Usually well below 0 F before we close the bedroom window especially in the apartment. Kim can do some helping and would come out every ay is needed all here kids are in school, well behaved and she works only part time down the street from her house,

  5. Famous quote: "Details matter, it's worth waiting to get it right." Glad to hear you had another pain-free day. We are finally getting some cooler weather at night. San Miguel de Allende will be super chilly in the evenings. Can't wait to open the window and cover up. Be good.

  6. OK. Good, then. Another good enough night..and a good day. Glad to hear it. Will be thinking about you and hoping for the best tomorrow. Meanwhile, I can't believe you keep the window open when it's zero. Is that F or C? Brrr either way. Hope you sleep and sleep under that duvet.

  8. So nice that your daughter made that long drive out to help Suzie pack. Love the duvet cover, now you will be toasty warm this winter even with the window open a bit. I like sleeping with the window beside my bed open to the fresh air. Glad you had a pain free night, hopefully tonight goes just as well :-)

  9. You and Suzie really do have a wonderful family surrounding you with love and help during this time.
    Great colors in the Duvet color. Lovely picture of you and your daughter. We like the idea of a window open in the bedroom but O degrees is a little cold for us. I guess you Canadians are tougher then us Yoopers...lol
    Sending more positive thoughts and prayers your way as you talk to the specialist on a plan of action.

  12. So happy that you both have family to help. Not as easy when you don't have family. I do love that duvet cover and we like to have the window cracked open just a bit as well. It was a cool 35F in Vegas last night. Try and rest as best you can and as much as you can. Between moving and the treatments you will be exhausted. Hang in there. Sending positive thoughts for your medical meeting today.

    1. The family help is awesome we are so blessed. and to believe I began my family 52 years ago, ups and downs but sure has been worth it especially now. This is our first Duvet and with the cover looks very nice is so cozy. Thanks for the positive thought and some future treatments to see which way we will be going. At least in and apartment next week.
