The pains have returned. I am not sure what is going on but today the pains that were previously only a small episode came back today with great intensity. I took Oxycontin and then had to resort to hydrocodon as well. The pains come from near my pancreas, hard to really nail the location down. Real sharp pains that hit for a while and then go away. I am worried but I also have to believe that this is within the course of the disease and treatment. Blood sugars are doing real well. My high levels are below 250 and my lows are in normal range and there are more lows than highs these days. That means that with Novolog my blood sugars are manageable. That would ideally mean that if the cancer goes to remission but full pancreatic function does not return I have a method to maintain proper levels.

But today was otherwise a good day. Ran errands and rode my motorcycle again. Wore the skull cap to protect my head. This has been a very mild spring and it is very enjoyable. The high today was somewhere around 72, average for today is about 92-95. And the flowers and trees are loving it. Same for tomorrow so I intend to get out and enjoy it as much as I can.

I have received all the scale model tools in so I will be setting up the shop. The work center will be on a large table I have set up in the garage. It is big enough to have tools around the edges and a work area at one end. I will also have to build several jigs to work the parts. That is going to be interesting because normally people build one doll house at a time. I am building three, so I will be building three houses full of furniture as well. Think three dining room sets. Think 18 miniature chairs with 20 separate pieces per chair and 20 mortise and tenon joints to cut for every chair. Oh yeah, need some tools to simplify this effort. Then dressers and chairs couches for the rest of the house. I need to build an assembly line of sorts. I start on that tomorrow.

I am still working on my web site ideas too. Those are a pretty serious undertaking as well. They say in the web world that there are designers and coders. I have identified myself as a coder. Being the creative designer as well is going to stretch my abilities. Doing something challenging and in a solo effort has been holding me back from doing this for the last two years. The recent turmoil with my health has created a necessity to overcome that reluctance. I have a lot fewer reservations about things these days, the job is going to be concentrating on breaking the effort down into manageable pieces. I sure wish there was someone available who knows about websites and can help lay out a realistic planning schedule and work flow. Somebody who is a project manager in IT, who maybe enjoys this stuff. I think Nutri-Nazi is going to get breakfast out tomorrow while I convince her to help me.
