Good morning or evening everyone! Looks like today is another rainy day too. So we will see! I'm back at Dana Farber on Tuesday and then next week is my long day there. I usually have a couple of books with me. It's just a long day and sleeping in the chair is not restful.

But I'm just getting to work now so I hope you all have a great day!

Good morning or evening everyone! Just headed to work this morning and it's looking like another rainy weekend.

This trial drug is going mostly well other than the fact it makes me dehydrated and it's hard to record with a dry mouth.

But these posters showed up on the Zakim this morning. It's all different people as well. I'm off tomorrow and could definitely do with the rest.

Thank you!

Well hello! I had a nice day of rest yesterday and back to work this morning. It's definitely autumn here! This is also the first Saturday in at least a month with no rain! I've seen some flocks of birds but a lot of these geese don't even leave and you'll see them in the rivers. I just saw these near the locks. I'm almost to work though and I hope you all have a great day!

Good morning or evening everyone! Just headed to work and it's a really nice morning here. Tomorrow is Friday and I actually have no appointments or anything so I'll get to take my walk and bring my camera with me. Hopefully I get some good photos but just being outside is enough for me!

Also, I'm feeling pretty good today so hopefully that continues!

Well hello! Just headed to work this morning and my days are still messed up. I just had to go get some labs yesterday but afterwards I took a nap and felt good enough to go outside and rake up leaves from the sidewalk and street. I go outside this morning and you could hardly tell. But that's ok. I really don't mind because it's relaxing to me. I'll have more to do for the next couple of months!

And I definitely plan to record soon!

Morning or evening everyone! Just headed to work and brought out the light jacket for the morning. Definitely enjoying the cooler weather though!

Just have to go for blood work tomorrow morning and that's about it. Feeling pretty good though! While it's a holiday here, I volunteered to work because then I have off the other Monday holidays like the Marathon and memorial day.

Thank you so much!

Happy Sunday! I'm just heading to work and all that good stuff. I'm working tomorrow and then I have a few appointments on Tuesday.

It's definitely feeling like autumn here. I think yesterday was the 4th Saturday in a row that we've had a mostly all day rain. But maybe that means we'll have more snow? Last season we only got like a foot of snow instead of the usual 4-5.

But I'm just about to work so here's a view of downtown! Maybe two!

Good morning or evening everyone! Headed to work and the colors are showing a bit more now.

But the rain is starting soon and likely will go all day.

The new med I'm on isn't too bad and the side effects are manageable. I have to go back on Tuesday and I've got my appointment itinerary for this month. Then cycle 2 day 1 would be another long day for me.

But I'm almost to work and wanted to keep you updated!

Thank you!

Well good morning or evening everyone! I'm so sorry for not posting the past few days. Monday I was at Dana Farber for a few appointments and blood work. Tuesday was a long day though at Dana Farber too. Yesterday I had to go get labs and head to work afterwards.

It's actually a nice morning here too. I think the rain is back Saturday though.

So I just saw they've made progress on this new bridge that was supposed to be done years. They realized most of the welds were bad so it sat for a few years but it'll be done eventually.

I'm almost to work and hopefully it goes well! Thank you for your support and it means so much to me!

Well good morning or evening everyone! Looks like I was about 2 hours off on my prediction that there would be a last minute extension for funding the government. I figured it would be around 11:50 pm but it was closer to 10 pm. Will we be in the same situation 45 days from now? Who knows.

Also, it was recently announced that the tall ships are returning to Boston in July of 2026 for the 250th celebration of the USA! It's going to be a good time! You can spend all day walking around the harbor and seeing all the ships from around the world!

I'm at work now so have a wonderful day!

Good morning or evening! Nice morning after a lot of rain with some more later today. Brought the umbrella in case. The weather is nice though! It's looking like the autumn colors might be delayed because of all the rain we've had.

Either way, I'm excited! I've noticed some of the white ash trees have started changing though. And the black walnut trees are dropping their usual tennis ball sized walnuts.

Also, the USCG cutter Eagle is here for a few days so it's definitely worth checking out!

I'd you haven't, check out the newest episode! And thank you so much for your support!
