LIVIN' FOR THESE DAYS...

Ahh, yes...it is the days that turn out like this that encourage me to keep my head, chin, and spirits up after coming through some of the most horrible days I thought I would feel. It's not for anything profound, nothing remarkable...It has simply been the getting up with no headache, feeling like I've rested well, hearing my 2 year old talking to herself, seeing my smiling husband's morning face, chatting with my step-daughter, going shopping and NOT feeling worn out,,,
basically I have felt fairly human today and it has been wonderful.
My spring semester at Southern finally came to a close this past Thursday and I have yet to feel the let-down from trudging through it all. My horse blinders were on and secured in place for the past 4 months just to get me through school while it seemed all hell was breaking loose in my little bubble world around me. Cancer and classes do not mix, much like oil and water. But I SOMEHOW was able to get through the semester and do pretty well (grades are not officially out until next month). I think I was just numb to everything going on just to get myself through it all......from diagnosis to surgery, and beginning my spring semester to my last final. I think I'm still in shock that it's done for the summer, and I am half way through treatment. WHAT A RELIEF!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to thank everyone for the prayers and encouragement, at the sake of sounding like a broken record...the thoughtfulness and strength of all those behind me have really carried me through, and I'm sure have played a HUGE part in how well I feel in between treatments.
You are all a tremendous blessing to me.
