Updates

I figured you are all waiting to find out what I accomplished yesterday. Well I finished the puzzle and took down most of the decorations. I didn't feel like taking the tree out of the stand so I just put the whole thing outside the front door. It looks pretty good out there. Kinda like a white trash Christmas!

Today I had to go out to pick up my own prescription, my caretakers (mom and dad) are sick. They have some stomach bug so they are staying far away. Aunt Chub did stop by here with another puzzle but I am not ready to tackle that one yet. It is a 3D one that is a building. Daniel said it will be like building Leggo's, I told him that he has to help me.

I know there are a lot of you who follow this blog. If you could, would you click on the link that says "followers" so my friend Deni does not have to be my one and only official follower. I think it just asks for your email address. Thanks a million.

Happy New Year

For Christmas my parents got me a puzzle and that is all I did yesterday, I was totally obsessed, it is 1000 pieces and I am about 3/4 of the way there. I would have finished it but my eyes and back hurt so I had to give up. Daniel helped me a little but then decided the Military channel on TV was much for exciting. He did shovel the snow just in case I decided to go out and party. The most exciting part of the day was when the UPS man came with flowers from my cousin Debi and family. Looking at beautiful roses was much better then watching the snow!

Joe and Dan always spend New Years Eve with their dad so I went to sleep at 11:30, I did not want to stay up for the end of 2008. I figured sleep was the best way to say so long to it. Daniel called me a little after midnight so the new year started off good. Joe actually came in to wish me a Happy New Year when they picked up Daniel!

Today I am going to finish my puzzle, put away some Christmas stuff and eat my lentils. Aunt Chubby says you have to eat them on New Year's for good luck. I figure I must have forgotten last year.

I hope everyone has a wonderful 2009!

More Hours Spent in the Doctors Office

I went to the oncologist today and she said that my lungs are clear and the antibiotics I have for my infection should clear up this cough. Them and Musinex. One would think that after hearing that commercial a million times in the last three months I would have thought of taking it myself. I took them a few hours ago and am still waiting for that miracle to happen.

Dan and I are hanging out playing on our laptops. With any luck there will be something on TV for us to watch later.

No Chemo Tomorrow

I guess that is a good thing, so maybe I don't have to start the new year feeling like shit. I do have an appointment with the doctor, but something happened with the scheduling and there is just no room for me to have chemo tomorrow. I am going to see the doctor to find out why I am still coughing, even with the magic pills they gave me on Christmas.

Today I saw my surgeon for a follow up and apparently you can get an infection three months after surgery. Something about low blood counts, immune systems and weak spots in my body. I have antibiotics for that now.

But I was not going to let that get the best of me. Since I was already showered and dressed, I went with my boys to the movies. It was based upon time, so it was either Seven Pounds or Bedtime Stories. Adam Sandler always makes me laugh, so it was okay. The only thing was we showed up just as the movie stared and we had to sit in the third row. Since I was scrunched down in my seat, it was hard to eat my popcorn. Later on I had to get half of it out of my bra. I do not think that would be good for my infected boob!

Daniel and I ate at the food court and Joe met up with his friends and left us. I got back here by 6 and I am tired! What a long day.
