I still do not understand the desire to wear cologne or perfume. And so many people wear SO much.

Perhaps they didn't shower. If that would be the case, I highly recommend bathing of some sort.

Maybe they can not smell. In that case, be considerate of those who can.

It puzzles me why people feel they should smell like some sort of ground animal. An example: musk

Been missing friends who have gone lately. Sigh.

Can't avoid it, death will come. Still don't like to lose a friend.

A moment of silence please for all who have passed.

Salut.

I have been trying to give Christina massages often. I ask first, just in case she doesn't want one. Silly daddy, Christina always wants another massage.

With Christina's legs and hips hurting, I figure maybe massaging the muscles will help. Christina has wanted more diazepam these last few weeks. She has a higher than average pain tolerance; probably due to the constant involuntary muscle activity and surgeries.

Oh my Princess Christina, if only I could make it all better.

So after this last doctor appointment for Christina, my mind has been put at ease. Sort of.

All of the thoughts concerning the rhyzotomy surgery have been reassured by the doctor. Both good and not so good.

We have come up with a game plan that makes sense and should be the best route for Christina. It never fails though that I wonder if we are making the right choices.

I have slacked on backups again. Between work, doctor appointments for Christina, summer yard work, and of course the usual household chores I have found little extra time.

Christina continues to love our walks outside. Rain or shine we go for a walk if she wants. Christina also really enjoys being out on the deck. This past weekend she did not want breakfast unless we ate on the deck.

Cheers to being outside.
