I've mentioned the cannery several times, so thought I'd show a couple of pictures. These are our two canning lines at the cannery.  People that come to do dry pack canning form a processing line.  First they put products in the cans then they put in an oxygen packet and then the lid.  Place the can on the canning sealer which seals the lid onto the can.  The cans are labeled and packed into boxes.  Depending upon the size of the orders and the number of people, we may run only one processing line or two if warranted. 

From a different angle.

The processing room isn't very large, so we can only keep seven pallets of different products there and the rest of our products are kept in the warehouse.


Really didn't do a whole lot today.  Being it is Mon. we did our usual banking for the cannery and then came home.  Mostly been pampering my arm, with heat, all day, since I don't like to take pain pills, until I try to sleep.  Tomorrow we both have eye appointments and then I see Dr. Fischer, in hopes of finding out about my arm.  It will be a busy day so I am sure I will come home and take a nap, since I am chronically sleepy all the time.  Maybe I have iron poor blood or something like that.  Other then that I really feel great.  My last chemo, for now, is Weds.  and then I will find out what happens next on my journey. 

TURNING POINT
"I had been running along in my life at a fast pace, when I heard I had cancer, I just stood still.  This turned out to be a very good thing; I got a new perspective.  And once I overcame breast cancer, I wasn't afraid of anything anymore.  I realized there are only two things in our reality, love and fear.  I try to make my choices out of love."  Melissa Etheridge


Two boys were walking home from Sunday school after hearing a strong preaching on the devil.  One said to the other, "what do you think about all this Satan stuff?"  The other boy replied, "Well, you know how Santa Claus turned out.  It's probably just your Dad."
