More chemo tomorrow. It's funny how much of a weekly routine it's become. Work out at the gym on Monday, errands on Tuesday, guild or CAbi on wednesday, chemo on Thursday. Just worked it right into my schedule. Kinda like a standing weekly appointment, like a manicure, or a weekly root canal. Okay, well maybe not a root canal, as I have never had a root canal, or a cavity even, but that's a story for another day. Or maybe right now. How can someone so healthy as to never even have a cavity get cancer and not know it for so long??!!?!
The routine of it all is getting tiring, but 7 more times, six after tomorrow. I just have to keep that in mind. I have to change my mindset too as my friend Judy pointed out today, I need to stop telling people I have cancer. She says I need to say I had cancer, as she is totally convinced that it has all been removed, therefore, I had it versus have it. I like that thinking. Kind of like most of the things I do, chemo and radiation is just overkill and excessive, mind numbing attention to detail. I tend to over plan and be extremly attentive to detail, so all this treatment is just par for the course. Being completely and overerly sure that it is destroyed.
My friend Jen is taking me to chemo tomorrow, and I am looking forward to seeing her and catching up. She took the day off work, just to take me. So nice. Especially since it is early, 9am, and so she has to leave her house at 7am. Doesn't even get to sleep in. Poor girl. Tomorrow will be early for James and Katie too. James gets to go to before school care tomorrow and he is super excited. Wonder how excited he will be when I wake him up at 7am. That boy certainly takes after his mama, likes to stay up late watching tv and playing games and likes to sleep til 9am. I think the world would be a better place if things started no earlier than 9am. Morning person I am not. I know that is a complete shock to so many of you, hee hee.
I'm sure I will be doing more updating as the weekend progresses. We have a big weekend, CAbi sample sale, the kids are having an adventure with daddy on Saturday, Christmas party at church, James' CCD Christmas pageant. Lots of excitement!
