What a lull day Monday WAS. All I did was call my Linda Linda to bitch n moan about how sore my arm was. How constipated I was. How achy I was. Then whamo!!! She's over my house touching my dirty dishes, folding my hubby's n my drawers. And for god sakes don't forget the tearful n fantastic arm sweeping massage. Thank u Linda for lending me your kind shoulder n your slacks for that matter that I teared upon. N thank u daniel for the cookies n cream shake! Don't judge y'all I wanted it bad.

Ugh not feeling it today. Darn shot. At least I took pain pill n ambien early last night. Dogs were barking at 1030p but still didn't sleep too well. Love resty sundays.

This is my 4th time at the chemo rodeo why am I so poopy n anxious? 1030 chemo at least I can rest some more.
Got my prosthetic bra yesterday. Im such an advocate for what these places charge insurance companies. $317 for boulder holders!!! Dang. But it is nice though. I get 3 of them a year through kaiser.
I know I have great support in u my friends, but its so great to finally be comfortably supported, but it leaves red sunburnish mark between my breasties where the forever-to-front close the clasp is. But I felt fantastic. Pix below. The steroid stuff I'm on made me gain 10 nvery lately so he lowered the dosage on one of them.
Yes u can look. The left one looks so good the right one getting jealous.
Thanks for listening.

Angela gave me my shots the past few days. I know she was icky about doing it but this is a part of "being there for me". It hurt but I appreciated that she overcame her ickyness of not wanting to. I only felt flu ness in my achy legs 2 days as to 4-5 days in previous after chemo white-count rising shots. We went to my moms n cooked n visited. Was so great to see her walking around n chopping foods. She showed me her X-rays of knee replacement n femur replacement. Ugh where those pin r in her knee it's no wonder it's hard to walk or really bend the knee. How come the pins/screw thingys be so long!!! Mom needed to rest so we left her some merlot n smooched her way to sleep. Was a good day. Thought she was going to tear up when she wanted to see my scar. She's ready to make hats for cancer patients!!!

Yay anti diareal pill worked yesterday. I didn't have any issues at airport. But I was so tired. Was very nervous about having swelling in my arm drying landing n take off. I kept squeezing my fake Lego n it helped with compression. I slept for 6.5 hrs last night but I feel ok today. A bit drained n my arm is a bit tender n swollen but not what I took anxiety meds for. Can't wait to see my mom tomorrow. These past 4 months have been so hard on me not seeing them as often as I like butt, yes I said butt, I'm blessed to be feelin ok enough to fly between chemo to see them.
Thanks for listening.

I'm just going to stay on the pot til daniel gets home. Gheez. Careful what I wish for, plus possible dehydration!! Not a good day. Someone tell me, no more food network when I'm naseaus!!!
Glad Linda gave me mad libs yesterday to keep my mind off things. I was craving tacos last night but not that hungry. My bestie of a hubby got out of his car n got me few tacos from taco bell. Not the best tacos but did the trick. There r no taco bell drive thrus close to us n he got out the car... Angela said he's a keeper!
