Finally, Hello Again
First, a thank you to Puffy, Lasann and Nookie for reminding me that there is a bigger world out there than what I am dealing with. I have allowed my world to become bordered by the four walls of the house and have not been doing too much else. I am no longer driving, and find that even a trip to town for a few errands with a driver is so very tiring and then takes a day to get over. So in withdrawing, I allowed myself to become a little isolated and self centered. But now I am back.
Tell me—if you were on a liquid diet of Boost meal replacement, what food do you think you would miss the most? Oddly enough, I have had dreams of eating a roast chicken bun with lots of mayo. The other dream was chicken fingers and Caesar salad. Of all the foods out there, you would think I might dream of something fancier, but apparently not.
Oldest DD has moved three hours away with her boyfriend, and is taking courses to become a nurse. She seems happy, so it’s a good thing. She did take her little black cat with her at first, but being alone all day after 10 months of living with someone at home made him very lonely, on top of having to become an inside cat in the new place. So she decided Miles should come back to live with me and she would get a youngster who did not know the outside. I have to admit, I was glad to get the little beggar back home, and he seemed happy to be back.
DH called me from work this afternoon to say that where they are working in Calgary, there were some snow flakes drifting about. I’m thinking this is a little too early for me, but I’d better call the propane company and order the tank be filled.
I go to see my oncologist next Tuesday, so I guess I will find out how things are progressing at this point. I will try to update after to share my findings. Hope you are all well out there, and enjoy this great big beautiful world.
