So far, pretty good on the Velcade. Even taking the dex in the morning, I did really well. So I’m hopeful this will work and I get a good response. I won’t have any blood work till after Christmas so,it’s a waiting game. But I feel good.
This morning it’s cloudy and it must have rained some over night and at least it warmed up. I had a nice walk this morning.
So, today part of the budget is to go pay property taxes, then dollar store and target for more lights. ( tree lights). We use lights all year on our house outside since there is no outdoor lighting. Plus I love the twinkle of them.
I’m going to be really careful with the food budget and keep track of it. The other day we spent $100 at trader joes, and I will go to Costco on Sunday. Some of that is non food stuff ,so I may take that out of food $ and see if separating it makes a difference. Christmas shopping is done except some $ for my brother and a few gift things for a friend.
December goals include having as many no spend days as possible.
Walk extra on the treadmill.
visit with my friend for Hanukkha.
do something special with B( maybe Tahoe alone)?
plan budget numbers for 2016 including non monthly bills(properly tax, car tags etc)
Write out goals for house and yard updates. We need a new bathroom fan, stepping stones for outside etc…
Hi Christina,
I saw you comment on Julie’s blog so hope you don’t mind me following your blog. My husband has Multiple Myeloma.

I would love for you to follow. Sometimes I write about MM,but sometimes just life stuff. ( I guess it’s all life stuff ,really)! Hope your husband is doing well.
It’s a brave thing to do, blogging about illness. I’m glad the new treatment regime is going well so far and wish you all the very best with it. Lake Tahoe looks so beautiful, it must be a wonderful place to go to relax. Take care.
Thanks, not so brave really. But it helps be process my feelings. Plus if it can help one other person with myeloma ( or anyone ) it’s worth it. BTW, what camera do you use, your photos are stunning.!
It’s a Nikon DSLR. Photography in Norway was a real challenge because the light levels were so low.
