Where has the time gone?

I can't believe I haven't been on my blog in so long. The days go by so fast and I have been so busy.
So much has gone I on don't even know where to start.

My mom had a second surgery on her knee. She is doing ok but has been in a lot of
pain. She has therapy and the guy has been bending it 100%. I know she is just really bored with being stuck in the house. She is starting to get out more a little here and there though.

My computer crashed and I lost all my pictures!! I was a little upset but I'm over it now. Most of them were my vacations pictures. I saved a lot of the pictures of the baby and my kids stuff but I never got around to saving my folder and then CRASH!!! Oh well, life goes on..It's weird how you change after something like cancer...when things like my computer crashing happens it just doesn't feel like the end of the world anymore. lol

Megan went on Spring Break to Florida and I was a nervous wreck! I tracked her plane all the way there. I called her 10 times before she ever made it to the hotel room, then I realized.....ok I have to let her go and have a good time without me stalking her. I finally told her to call me when she wanted to talk, and she said..."no mom, please call me anytime you want." She would call me when she was laying on the beach in Daytona and tell my how beautiful it was and that she wants to take a trip with me. She has grown up so much. It makes me happy, but it makes me sad too.

I joined a gym! I go every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. The reason I joined was to get my strength back. I have lost about 25 pounds that I gained during my treatment. I'm about back to where I weighed when I was diagnosed. Now I just have to get some muscle tone back. So far I am loving the gym. I haven't been too sore..just a little and I don't dread going. Sue joined with me and we have such a good time together. They have a steam room, a dessert room, pool and whirlpool.
After working out it feels great to just go in there and hang out. I love it.

I am going to have to come here more often. I really miss it. It's just that when I was sick, this was my place to go to vent and let everyone know what was going on in my life. I miss everyone and I really have to go catch on some blogs. I hope everyone is doing good.

Well, I'm off to the show! I am taking my niece and nephew to see the Hannah Montana movie...(shh, I really want to go too!) I used to watch Hannah Montana marathons when I was sick. It would be the only thing on besides infomercials when I couldn't sleep. lol.

So good to see you posting again. I hope you do it more often! I hope your mom's knee gets better, I can just imagine she's getting stir crazy, especially with it being spring. Good for you losing 25 pounds! I can't seem to keep weight off - it's off then on again. Enjoy that gym! I can't get my boys to see the Hannah Montana movie, even though they watch the tv show all the time. *sigh* I don't want to think about the boys leaving the nest like Megan. *sigh*

Hey Trish!

Thanks for the sweet comment, I miss you too!!! I know how it is...I grow through spurts of being on here nonstop and spurts of being on maybe once a week...but when i'm not on here I do think of all of you often...

Thanks I think Maddie(our kitten) is cute too...hehe I just uploaded a couple videos on my blog of Jeff, Beau and her...the first one doesn't have any sound because YouTube apparently thinks there is a copyrights issue..because Josh Groban was playing in the background on my tv...is that silly or what..lol

Hope your having a good weekend!

Hugs

Chemo Sucks!

This 3rd chemo has really kicked my butt.  I am just not snapping out of it. I am so tired and nauseated. I am really starting to hate this.  I went to the doctor and my red cell count is low and I am anemic. I had to get a shot and I will get it once a week until my count comes up.  I really can't wait until March when this is over. It seems like it will be forever before it gets here.  I am really trying not to get down about this but I am really sick of feeling like this.  I'm hungry and have no appetite. I force myself to eat then I'm sick. UGGG! I also have been having really bad leg cramps. The kind that you wake up with and your toes flare out!  My calves feel like I ran 20 miles. I feel so bad because I have not been calling my friends. I have just been so down and feeling icky.  I hope everyone understands. OK enough whining. I stayed at my sisters for 2 days and then came home to find out my dog was sick while I was gone....

Radiation begins!

I waited ten days to hear from someone about starting radiation and this morning I get a call saying, can you be here at 11:45? Yikes no time to think! I was really nervous about it. I called my mom and she came to my rescue. Today was actually a dry run, I start tomorrow and I don’t really have a schedule yet. I have to do it at their convenience because there are no regular time slots open. So starting tomorrow I will go everyday except Saturday and Sunday for 7 weeks for a total of 35 treatments. That means I will end some where around June 12. I heard it takes longer to change your clothes than it does to do the treatment. Today I had to lay on the table in the little form they made for me and this huge machine rotated around me and they made sure everything was lining up right. They also gave me a little bar code on a card that I have to scan everyday and it lets them know I am there for treatment. Then I go into the changing room and change into my lovely gown. Then I just wai...

I have good news!

I have some great news! I went to the doctor today and found out that I am officially in remission!!! Yup That's right cancer free!! I have been waiting for the results for 2 weeks, it was a long 2 weeks, but Yay! I can move on to radiation now. I don’t even have to go back to the Docs for a month! After going every Monday for 7 months, that was music to my ears. I celebrated until I got home and checked my computer and found out my friend from another journal who has been great support for me and going through this at the same time as me found out today she has a malignant tumor in her lung. She is a fighter I know she is. She is only 3 months out of chemo and now this. It is really hard for me to celebrate knowing what she has to go through. On my sidebar of my journal main page there is a link to her journal. It is "I Shaved My Legs For This?" Stay strong Kim. I am feeling really good. Aside from being tired I think I might be getting back to normal. My mind is raci...
