She's definitely a creature of habit these days, by her own admission. Disruption in the routine we've cobbled together as a family the last two months stresses her out and drags her down. No California State Fair this year for the Pegster-- we'll do our traditional family portrait for our New Year's letter at the local WalMart, where they have photo booths just outside the store.
She's starting to put weight back on, and has a bit more energy, but has a deep and aching desire for this to just be over and done with. It's a grind for Peg, and for Zoe and I as well. Looking forward to mid-October, when the last chemo is done and we're off to who knows what but it's better than this.
As Cap'n Jack Sparrow said at the end of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl":
"Bring me that horizon."

Glad that you got out to Lake Natoma. Such a fabulous day today; my favorite weather, warm and a little bit muggy. Kevin and I went to church early and took the tandem out for a bit of vitamin D time.
Tomorrow starts week 2 of school. It looks like it is going to be a good year.

Zoë started 9th grade today. There are 600 more human beings in her high school than in my little home town in Nebraska (1,800 students). School's about a ten minute drive from our house, and I'm morning carpool dude. Nice to have that structure in our lives.
