It's been an eventful week. My 4th week post treatment is almost over & I'm feeling stronger every day. Since I'm feeling better I can do more, just little things, but it's a nice change from being in bed morning to night. I've got my hair cut and a French manicure to my newly grown nails.
I've been hanging out at my apt with some happy cats. Simba hasn't been 1 foot away from me since I came home and Nalla I think is mad at me so ignoring me mostly, but warming up each day to having me back around.
Last night was my aunts 75th birthday party and I was able to attend. We held the party at Marine Drive Golf Course as my mom is a member/president so we had a lovely room for the family. The food was good and auntie Marilyn had such a nice time with family and friends around her.
While at the club I got to meet some of my peeps...my golf groupies. I don't golf but these ladies know my mom and have been following this blog. A table full of ladies having dinner and enjoying each other's company. It made me think of my girls and how much I love doing that exact thing with them. When I approached the table they cheered me and said I was an inspiration. I will admit the cheers were nice but I don't feel I am in any way an inspiration. I'm just a cancer patient fighting her battle as so many other people do.
I'll be sleeping solo in my apt tonight. This will be the first time since I started treatment that I'll have slept in my own bed. I feel ready but still a little nervous about not having someone else around. Once I get my first night alone under my belt all will settle in to routine. Wish me luck!
We shall see what the weekend brings. Each day I wake up and figure it out. My PVR is still full of shows to watch so I've always got a date with PVR if all else fails.
