Former intro to this blog..

This is the intro I just replaced for this blog:
I had dabbled a bit with blogging prior to last summer, but my diagnosis
with leukemia led me to get serious. Blogging allows me to make information
available to those who care about me at their convenience.

I still blog on SparkPeople, so look for those posts in the left column.

Ta Da!

I'm posting this while sitting in my recliner at home. I finally have the blue (new to me) laptop talking to my Cox high speed Internet.

That will make it much easier for me to keep my blog up to date. For the last three months I've only been able to post away from home, using wi-fi either at my sister's condo or at the Phoenix airport.

I'll do some backtracking soon; for now I just wanted to let everyone know I'm back online.

Status update

Hi!

I'm back in Arizona, for at least a couple of months.

I've cleaned out the inbox on both my home and cell phones, so you can leave messages.

I'm having major technology challenges at home, and it's making me nuts. My old computer became corrupted when I tried to install a wi-fi router. It will no longer run Java, so I can't use most of my usual websites. I can't pay bills, I can't place or track CM orders, I can't update my blog, I can't use any formatting on my email or forum posts. My new to me laptop works fine, but won't talk to my high speed internet, so to get anything done I have to drive to a wi-fi hotspot.

My oncologist didn't like my latest lab report any more than she liked my previous ones, but didn't ask me to go see her.

I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Flo

I'm home!

Hi, all!

I'm home.
I plan to be here for at least a couple of months.
I'm safe.
I had an uneventful trip.
I found my cell phone. It had slid under the front seat of my car.

More later.
Flo

Oops!

I knew I hadn't been here in a while, I just didn't realize how long!

I keep composing entries in my head, then never actually posting them.

I'll try to get them on "paper" this week.
