You are a reading machine! My stack of books to read is getting higher and higher. Ridiculous. How was this week's round of radiation? I'm waiting to hear from one of my friends. She had a cardiac echo yesterday morning. I'm a bit worried since I haven't heard from her yet. She's been having trouble with her thyroid & her doctor was concerned that it has been effecting her heart. Sigh. Soccer today. Inlaws are coming out to watch. Other than that, not much going on this weekend.
