Pullman melancholy
I'm in Pullman with Walker. The surgeon and the oncologist both agreed that radiation was still necessary. I've been here a week now. We planned on coming over last Saturday but there was a big nasty storm coming in so we left on Friday instead. We made it here just fine. Steve flew home on Sunday night and he'll be back on Tuesday.
Things have generally been good. The treatment is going well. So far no side effects, but I guess I can expect them to start this weekend. Walker has been eating and interactive. Last night he was downright energetic - he went all over the room, even climbing up on the toilet, to the toilet tank, to the bathroom counter, and then into the bathtub. He thoroughly explored the room again. It was nice to see. :-) The vet and the tech both love him and take good care of him.
I have been doing well with this odd situation but am having a bit of melancholy today. I haven't been out of the hotel much. I can't leave when Walker's here and I have been working in the days so have had to stick around. It has also snowed over a foot in the last couple of days so if I haven't had to go out, it's been best to stay in. I'm going to go out today and get a few groceries, and maybe some pizza or some other take out food. I've been eating a lot of Cup O Noodles, dried fruit, applesauce, etc. I had some Easy Mac and it was GROSS. Never eating that again. I used to eat that occasionally at work and it was fine.
I don't know if I'm lonely or tired or what, but I kind of feel like having a good cry. I'm really looking forward to Steve's return on Tuesday. I miss him a lot.
