Feeling Pretty Good

Hi friends,
Just a little update.  I am feeling physically pretty well, this week, which is great because last treatment, at this point, I was so sore and achy from chemo, but, this time, I only had a few days of aches and pains.  I also feel like my little ticker is getting stronger.  I've been taking longer walks and not getting so tired.  I still like my naps though, especially with my dogs on the sofa.
Spring break is this week for my kiddos and I'm not sure what to do with them to keep them entertained.  Hmmm.  Probably lame stuff according to them.
I think my boys will going on an overnight bus tour to Orlando with their Youth group, so that will be cool.  Sarah is not one to enjoy getting her nails done, but maybe I can convince her.  Quite a few of her friends will be gone on trips during the week, so she and I will be pal-ling around together a bit.  Luckily the pool is warm enough to swim in.  I can not believe she is going to be 12 in a week or so.  My little pink baby...
My sister, Dawne, just headed back home this morning.  I was very sad to see her go.  We had a nice time visiting and talking and enjoying each other.  She was a big help and keep me busy. Plus, she cleaned our pool!  Bonus!
Well, everything is Status Quo here for right now, which is fine with me.  A heart Dr. appt, this week, then chemo next.   I think that will put me at the halfway mark.  I still have my eyebrows(which I am NOT plucking) eyelashes, but they are dwindling, arm hair and little peach fuzz on my lip.  I don't care.  I am taking a hiatus from any more hair removal!
As for my mental status, I appreciate prayers for that too.  This cancer stuff is really draining, mentally, and I have always been a big baby.  I get some serious blues sometimes and tend to act like a hermit when I go through treatment. Please don't take anything personally if I don't act social.  It's me, and it's a problem I need to contend with.  Life goes on, and so should mine.  I let my illness dictate a lot of my time.  I don't consider it a weakness, but I do know that The Lord wants me to change that aspect, and He is growing me that way, although I have been resisting Him, lately.  I hope you can glance at the scripture that I've included up in the right hand corner of the page.  It's a site I go to often that offers a lot of info and commentary as well as a daily scripture.  I really enjoy feedback from my friends, thank you.  Please don't hesitate to post  a comment or complaint or swift kick in my pants if you wish.
Once again, thanks for continued prayers for healing , strength and peace for my family and I.
We are blessed by it.
Love,
Jo
