Seeing stars!!

In not one way but two! I went out to breakfast with Janne from Norway today and she certainly is a star in my eyes for being a bone marrow donor and then for being such a good sport to be interviewed on American television when she got here. I know that she was very nervous yesterday - but she did an outstanding job.

With it being school vacation week, my wife and I took Janne and two of our grandchildren and a friend of our grandson's to the planetarium in Concord, NH. Not a whale of a lot to see but the film that they showed was worth the price of admission and I learned some things in the process. It's always good to continue to learn things.

Dinner tonight consisted of leftovers from the party on Sunday - what a surprise! Fortunately, there was not a lot of food leftover so we won't be eating leftovers until Summer arrives. As a defense mechanism, I probably should have given up leftovers for Lent then I would not have anything to worry about.

Time is flying fast. Tomorrow is the last Wednesday off of our 5 week wait between doctor's visits. It seems like only yesterday that we were there. But, I can't complain when the next visit is at the end of May.

Tomorrow is also Janne's last day here with us before she heads to Rhode Island to visit some friends. It seems like only yesterday that she arrived here. She keeps wanting us to visit her homeland of Norway and I would love to do so but I have no idea when foreign travel will be allowed for me and I only want to visit when the weather is good. Norway in the winter may be beautiful - but I'll let others be the judge of that!

Not to bad an entry for someone who had no idea what he was going to write...
