Labor Day

So, I guess my internal clock thought I was going to work in Centreville today because at 4:00 am. I am awake.   I waited until closer to 5:00 to get up but just laid in bed and had lots of thoughts running through it.  I feel pretty darn good so I guess taking it easy Sunday was a good thing.  We are headed to Mishawaka today - I am going to JC Penney to get a few things for the house to try and finish up my remodeling from the bathroom and the kitchen/dining room.  First time I will be out since my bald head and I just need to get over it and not worry about the looks.  Obviously, people know I am doing chemo or at least that is what I assume when I see a bald headed lady.  :-)   We will pick up our season supply of tailgate stuff, plates, plastic ware, etc. and even though we are only going to a few of them this year, they will not go to waste and I can use the items for holidays, etc. as well.   I have no side effects happening right now but have figured out that the Ativan (which I take for an nausea) knocks me out.  The last two nights I have taken one after eating supper just because my stomach is not quite right and Andi (my chemo nurse) said take an Ativan at the very first sign of any nausea and the next thing I know - I am sound asleep waking up like about 10:00.  It works great on my stomach and is a nice sleeping pill too.  I just need to remember NOT to take it right before I get in the car to drive somewhere. 

I am hopeful for a good day all day and back to work tomorrow.  I have an appointment on Friday with Dr. Zon because she is out of town next week before my chemo.  Not much else happening - and trust me - that is a Good Thing.
