Well, I don’t know about you, but having a holiday in the middle of the week is VERY unsatisfying. You can’t “tie one on” for fear of going back to work feeling like crap. You can’t go on vacation without burning a bunch of vacation time. (Yes, I know I am a teacher and have summers off! Not all of you are teachers though.) But I hope everyone made the best of their situation. Scott and I played a little tennis, bbq-ed some baby back ribs, and just enjoyed the amazing weather.
Today, the 4th, marked 3 weeks post-chemo. I am feeling much better now that I don’t have a steady stream of poison coming my way once a week. I have no reason not to believe that I am rebounding well. I am frustrated with certain fitness issues (“Does this dress make me look fat?”"No honey, it’s just the fat.”) and I do not do patience well. I guess I should give myself a break, or so others say, but life is weird and I don’t feel like I deserve a break. I have been dealing with life with cancer for a steady 6 months and Monday marks a new chapter of surveillance. My next goal is to make the 2-year mark free and clear.
