    I have to wait to see my liver doctor next week to get results...

    I already know I have cirrhosis from the miasma of cancer treatment toxins..the trick is to keep it as stable as I can for as long as I can..keeping fingers crossed..

    afterwards I took a stroll through Balboa Park across the street from the Navy Hospital..it is always a treat for me..

    and it seems the monarch butterflies are migrating through right now..I have seen some in my yard but cannot seem to catch one...he was a little far away

    but I loved watching them before they travel farther south..

    and I also took a walk by the lily pond..

    LUV our amalgamated beach of so many vistas and diversions.

    We had a HUGE storm blow through here for the last 24 hours or so. We've been without electricity for about half that time. Dropped the thermometer like a brick in the process. What happened to fall?

    Anyhow, in our little condo development here in paradise 2 HUGE gigantic trees were toppled right over.... exposing their entire HUGE root systems. It's amazing that somehow (miraculously) neither tree marred anything...... they each fell away from buildings and cars into spots apparently perfectly earmarked. You'd have to see this mess to catch my drift. One was very near to our building. We slept thru the whole thing.... under piles of covers.

    Many of our friends are still without power and quite possibly so for another couple of days. We are so fortunate. Trees down all over the peninsula. I'm down to my last 5 days here of the season. Hopefully there will be some sun peak through for my winding down of one more beloved season.

    Lisa thanks for keeping us up-to-date on your test. AmyJo sounds like you've really been put through the wringer. Sending both of you some good vibes. Get thee to a beach-indeed!!!

I will be hitting the beach for my powerwalk this morning,Tongue out
