Full day

We're used to geting up about three hours later than we had to today, but the placement of the Pleur-X tube went well and Peg is now "doctor visit free." We'll tap Peg's belly every three days or so, each time avoiding a trip to Roseville to cool our heels for 45 minutes in a waiting room, only to have Peg woofed from the trip and procedure.

Peg's sister Marianne was fortuitously able to participate in her women's group gathering tonight at our house. The same group of half a dozen women has met twice a month for the last 18 years. It was Jeanette's (Peg's older sister) 61st b-day celebration, too.

Peg hung out on the sofa and we were all gathered around the coffee table, narfing wonderful food, cackling and enjoying each other's company. I know and love all these women so I felt right at home. And a treat for me to connect with both my sisters-in-law face to face about everything that's going on.
