After five long years, my oncologist broke up with me today saying that I had finally graduated from Cancer U and we don’t need to see each other anymore. I made him do it on camera. (Yes, he’s the best). 😉

My daughter’s HS teacher is off with Covid. I guess he’s not allowed to say that so he messaged his students and said. “I stubbed my toe and will be off for a week because I don’t want any of you to stub your toes”. What an icon.
