sat-all-day



jane
needs her rest! despite the chemo, feeling so upbeat and relieved to be done with this process. she agrees to venture out with me early in the day, a bit of shopping and errands, then is zonked by lunchtime - no sleep on friday night thanks to the steroids yesterday. so she's definitely tired, and we encourage her to just lie about and hang out (which she does). the day drifts by, i do my thing, the kids theirs, and we marvel that everything seems to be semi-on-track. i make a delicious lunch from friday night dinner remnants - a delicious and quick soup and a yummy salad - and other confections are whipped up.

it's a lovely afternoon, marlee prepares for a bar mitzvah, then her and jared are out for the night. andi entertains, and we have a light dinner - jane's not up for much more than that - and by the time everyone gets back in, we're toast! the kids stay up until all hours - saturday night live takes on new meaning here - and us old folks retire, happy to hit the sheets.

daylight savings time begins (appropriately - a new dawn?), and breakfast in the city awaits, so we need our beauty sleep ...
