Another Restless Night

It's 4:20a.m., and I seem to see this hour often lately! I wake around 1a.m. and can't seem to get back to sleep...my legs ache, my bed is uncomfortable, the dogs are restless...and I can't find a good spot. So here I am making coffee, and hoping I can find a more comfortable spot then the one I'm in! And thinking I'm hungry so maybe I'll make b'fast.

But yesterday Ian took me for clean hair and a little retail therapy (his), and sweet Bucket came to visit! I'm so happy to report that her aunt's tumor isn't cancer, and that they will shrink it with radiation...not ideal, but certainly the better alternative!

Today my dear friend Janice is coming to take me out to lunch...and Colleen will come later for some comic relief.

Doctor tomorrow...shower in my future? Fingers crossed!

I am still slow, and taking everything slow! I can't even say it's killing me, because it isn't as if I have a choice...my body simply won't let me.

I hope you all have an ache and pain free day!

Another Week in a Life...

Here it is Monday, December 3rd. I entered this hospital 1 week ago...how is it I'm still here? Well, surgery Monday. Surgery Tuesday. Wednesday didn't really exist. Thursday couldn't get out of bed without being dizzy...finally got some liquids other than IV. Friday still floppy..barely walked, and managed to poop(so proud). Saturday walked to the nurses desk, a little soft food and the day was over. Sunday walked 3 times around the floor and had my sweet mommy and daddy come visit...then my adorable devil-friend Colleen, and finally my bro and sis-in-law...and walked another 8x around.

And here we are at Monday again.The doctor will be in today and will tell me when I get to break out!

I feel great, but am slow. My hair is disgusting, and I'd KILL for a shower (and you know I would).

GUESS WHAT! Doctor was just here...I'm going home!
