Waiting for you! Why are you still wearing your Christmas costume?

because when I took it off last year, I obviously left it at some random elf's place and couldn't find it again! I'm looking around for a different outfit to wear or maybe go au'natural (relax folks, just mean as me!
)

Couldn't remove the blankets all the way, cause the dog was on one side and the cat on the other. Pant, pant, pant ....
The back story: had a lumpectomy late in November. And a re-incision to get more of it in early December. Both were outpatient surgeries - no overnights in the hospital. This was followed rapidly by 4 days and nights IN the hospital for blood clots in both lungs and one leg. So I got to stay off work for a month and just read books. And doggy snuggle. Yay me!!!
Fortunately the cancer was only stage 0 and they got it all. But they took away my estrogen patch!!! Now I'm learning to wear sleeveless camisoles and snap front shirts. I can rip open the shirt when I need fast temperature relief. Sigh.
I'm going on a previously scheduled cruise soon, and the radiation treatment will begin after that. Fortunately, no chemo.  |
I have been taking something from a naturopath which is brilliant! I'll look at the name and maybe you can check it out with your Doc!
