They just wanted to make sure you got some exercise and that your heart was still working okay. BAD birds....bet Ruby was the leader of that escape!

Mine too. I tend to keep it short any ways, but I have to cut it at least once a month to keep it under control. It curls like crazy.

Loooooooooooooooooooooooooona! How did you do today?

Shoot me your snailmaill addy. I'm going to my folks this summer and may run up for a visit. Wanna run it through Mapquest to see how far you are.

I did fine on Monday! I do have a slight "duh" head though. DH said "so what else is new?"

I was at work all day and by the time I got home I was kinda tired. I plopped in my chair after taking care of things and watched TV. Then went to bed by 10. Today I'm at work again, and it will be a bit of a longer day, but I feel real good.

Since we work together, DH & I have lunch hour together too, so it's something to look forward to each day. My appetite has been knocked down a notch or two, which is a good thing for me lately. My sweet tooth went out the window too. What ever I have at lunch, I take home half and have that for dinner. I'm paranoid about eating too much and regretting it later with an upset stomach, but I haven't experienced that (yet).

Coyote - I would LOVE to meet you! PM sent.

Oh yeah, I have those "duh" head days. We refer to that as "Chemo-brain"

DH and I used to work together. I tell people I found him in the woods. I was working at a wilderness camp for juvenile offenders called Vision Quest. DH came to work there. I was his supervisor. Mud muck and 75 sweaty teen-aged boys living in indian tipi's Lots of fun!

I'm so glad you are doing so well. I couldn't eat nearly anything about 3 days after treatments without getting sick. I stuck to water and juice mostly to keep from being dehydrated. That would last about a week.

It would be a blast to meet. I'm looking at going up to see my folks sometime in June or July. I'll let you know when I get it all worked out.

 

[Lunachick]

I was told that "chemo brain" could last a year or more after treatments.

I'll look at it this way: I got a good excuse to be goofy and I'll blame it on that.

 

[Lunachick]

Yeah, Coyote let me know what's going on with your trip. I'll be around.

I have no excuse...I used to blame it on menopause. Now I just wait 10 or 15 minutes and hope what I was trying to remember comes back. If it doesn't and it was important I figure someone will remind me sooner or later.

So glad to hear that you are doing well. Makes me smile. Have a good night Luna.

Does your Dh know my DH. That sounds like something mine would say. Hang in there girl. We have your back.
