Not much new to report here. The pain from the chemo finally ended on Wednesday so I was glad about that. Once I get passed the pain I am amazed at how good I feel. My main issue is that I just don't have much stamina....example: I used to like to walk ALL around Wal-Mart BEFORE I would start grocery shopping....now when I try to do that I have no energy to do the grocery shopping which was the real reason I was there....I am officially done with mascara for now....I only have a couple remaining eyelashes left and it just looked silly to put mascara on. The eyebrows are hanging in....I have lost the outside arch on the right side but for now that can be filled in with some makeup. We don't have any big plans for the weekend...I am looking forward to meeting up with the Strawberry Hill Bunco Babes on Saturday night and hopefully taking some $$$ from them! I hope everyone has a good weekend.
Here is something I read late last year and I think it is just a great message....Reignite your passion for living and see the extraordinary in the ordinary. Remind yourself how precious and how short this adventure really is. Why waste one second on self-pity, frustration, irritation and all the rest????????
Lots of love to all of you and thank you for your precious gift of your frienship!!

Hi Jan, glad to hear the pain has passed. Just think, you're almost done!
"See the extraordinary in the ordinary." Words more true were never spoken.
Have a great weekend!

Hi Jan - Glad to hear your pain has passed. Sounds like you'll be able to have a good weekend! Just rest when your body tells you to! (although I'm thinking you have no choice in that matter!) Anyway, you are so on the home stretch now! I'm so happy for that! Looking forward to our visit in just a few weeks now! Can you believe it's February already!??? THAT's CRAZY! Time flies,,,, even when you aren't having fun! Love you! Have a great weekend. Sue
