Holiday Plans...

At Audra's baptism dinner last Saturday the question of holiday plans came up. Penni, Cindy, Marla, Mom and I were all discussing best night for the Packard family party. Our kids come into town on Sunday the 23rd in the morning, so that evening is my first choice. Does anyone else have family coming in and what are others' thoughts? We're wondering if Sheila and John are planning to come in from El Paso for the Christmas holidays. I'm also wondering what's happening with the gift exchange(s). Please weigh in and share your thoughts.

It's probably difficult to predict what the chemo schedule will be - I know it's been delayed until October 8 this next time and I don't think there's any way to predict that it will always be every three weeks after that. I think a variety of things can change the schedule. So I would suspect that holiday plans will be somewhat tentative depending on how Mom is feeling.

Sunday night is very good for our family. It should be spoken for quickly if you want it reserved. Then we can let Ethington's know they need to have it on the 22nd.
I'm so glad Mom has not had pain and nausea this time around. She is always suspiciously energetic when I am around. Seems like when I try to help she is determined to be right there beside me, definitely calling the shots, so I felt better about how she seemed to take this last chemo round.

Penni, Marla and Cindy all seemed to feel Sunday night, the 23rd, was good as well. Should we just plan for that night, then? I'm putting it on our family calendar unless someone tells me differently.
