It's a Real Saturday!!

FINALLY, after ten days of post-chemo feeling horrible, I woke up today and felt (almost) normal. I had to jump up and run to the doctor's for a quick white cell boosting shot, but I was thrilled that I felt like "jumping up" and running!!! I followed that by picking up a nutritious breakfast for my kids at McDonald's on my way home!! ha!!

Yesterday was a flurry of activity....for my own sanity, I'll try to dissect it:
  • overslept due to being awake until 4am
  • got to school late into my first period class (well covered by Tara..THANKS)
  • Went from school to dr. at 11:30 to check white blood cells, etc....got another shot and more fluids....Nancy and Jill met me there ....
  • Came home and enjoyed potato soup that Jill got for me at Baker Bros. Deli
  • Took a bath
  • Relaxed my aching low back with visits from Nancy, Jill, Mama, Dustin, and Adam...........
  • Kids got home at 4
  • My friend Kindall brought a beautiful meal and cake at 5
  • Nancy brought Blue Bell to accompany cake...yum
  • Mike and Lynda came later in the evening and hung beautiful curtain rods in my bedroom
  • Daddy came through late evening with his never-ending perils of wisdom.....(he's now spending most of his time planning our trip to the EAST!! He promised that when I'm well, he'll go to NYC with me!!!!!)
  • Evan got home from his game and we caught up on news while he enjoyed some King Ranch Chicken.
And, even though I did not sleep well last night, I feel good today.....my first day ever of wearing a cap on my head..............will have to work on getting used to that!!

more later.
