We got back home yesterday around 4:30.  It was nice seeing our friends and we had a good time.  Ray and I went fishing on Tuesday and caught some crappie.  The crappie in that lake look more like bass in size than any crappie I've ever caught.  Nice large plump fish.  Wednesday we went out again but the rain and weather front hid the fish from us and we got skunked.  We went trying for sun fish and bass not crappie.  Between the wind and the rain it really threw the fishing off so we came in rather early.  Fun times!

I was without internet access so this is the first post since Monday.  I was off my eating so I didn't eat much but I made up for it yesterday.  This morning I've had a good breakfast so I think maybe I can put on some weight.  We'll wait and see.  I do start a new chemo session next week and that might influence my eating habits again.  I feel good this morning so I'm planning on doing some walking to get some of my strength and stamina back.  I've got to do this everyday.  Now that the rain has left us for the time being I need to take advantage of that.

I need to post my picks for this week.  I've picked quite a few underdogs but.....here goes.

Wisconsin to defeat Northwestern
Purdue to upset Michigan State
Texas Tech to upset Iowa State
 Florida to upset Georgia
Penn State over Iowa in a close game
Texas A&M to upset Miss State
Washington State to upset Stanford
Texas over Oklahoma State
Fresno State over Hawaii
San Diego State over Nevada
