We were gifted a two night getaway condo this past week. This was from the owner whom we have never met but have stayed at her property previously.  She knows of my cancer battles and graciously gave us some time away from Houston and our tiny house. The condo balcony overlooks the Gulf. It is beautiful- except when foggy then we couldn’t see anything. 

We have been to Galveston a half dozen times over the past almost five years of coming to MDA.  It was fun to find some new things to do-Railroad Museum, Paddlewheel boat cruise, watch and listen to the waves crashing against the rocks and a new restaurant and to do some of our favorites again- ferry ride, Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, and mini golf. 

We also drove around to see Christmas lights which was s bit disappointing but went to Moody Gardens and were delighted to be able to walk around their displays. 

The last three days I have felt quite well. I did a lot of walking in Galveston and wasn’t exhausted. Monday and Thursday are my next appointments so we will see how my labs and bone marrow biopsy come out.  

The countdown to leaving Houston and heading to Rapid City has begun! We plan to leave Dec 20 and be home Dec 22!
