Wanted: Van that will hold family of 4, 1 dog, 5 cats and a gecko

Hey, how do you like the new look? The picture was taken in Aruba, Christmas 2005. Talk about paradise, that place is gorgeous!
I am doing great, just a few weird things now and then. Today I have really struggled with both balance and dizziness , I don't know why it's worse today. Plus, the chemo brain was in overdrive today. Sometimes I don't realize how bad it is until Scott mentions something really crazy that I did (or forgot to do). Lately, I have noticed when something gets screwed up, my chemo brain is the first to get blamed, whether I am responsible or not! Like last week, we got a letter in the mail saying our house was in foreclosure, Scott assumed I had forgotten to make the payments. He called me in a panic and all I could do was laugh at the ridiculous notion that we would be pitching a tent somewhere. But wait, don't set out the collection jars just yet, it was just a minor problem with our account number. We are in no danger of living in a van down by the river. If we were, we would be in trouble, b/c we no longer own a van, we would be living in a Civic down by the river.
One more thing, my friend Sandy who lives in Jackson and also has colon cancer (we met at the mall in a weird twist of fate), anyway she called from St. Johns hospital today, she has multiple blood clots in her lungs from chemo. She is really scared and worn out, please pray for her healing. She doesn't even know if she'll get any more chemo. She had a severe reaction to the Oxi (the drug I took) so they switched her awhile back and now this happened. I am so worried about her.
Take care and thanks for reading my blog!
Love,
Michele;
