check up time

In the past two weeks, I had appointments with both the surgeon and the oncologist. Good checkups with both. My hemoglobin is almost back to normal and, as the surgeon said, "no lumps or bumps".
I can hardly believe that it's been six months since my last chemo.
As for 2014, it still sucks. My brother is back in the hospital. I am exhausted form stress on top of stress. (not that I'm making his illness about me)
That's all for now. My life is not very interesting these days.

pixie

I had my first haircut a few days ago. It's a very short, pixie cut. I don't hate it. I colored my hair because it came in all gray and I have never wanted to be gray. There was some discussion with my sister and my daughter who think I should leave it gray. In the end, it's my hair. To me, the haircut and leaving the house without my wig complete my return to normalcy. It's all very exciting!!

In the mean time, 2014 was supposed to be a much better year for me but it isn't starting out that great. On Jan. 2nd, I had a little fender bender. I changed lanes and a car had moved into my blind spot. There was damage to the other car which really needs repair and my car just had a little dent and a broken signal light cover. I wasn't planning to fix my car. Then, just 15 days later, while driving to work, a woman missed the bend in the road, crossed the yellow line and slammed into me. My car was totaled. I'm ok. I have a new (to me) car which I like pretty much. I miss the Subaru but I'm adjusting pretty well. I now drive a Kia Soul. At least it's black.

Now it's February. Hopefully the rest of the year will be better!!!!
