HOLIDAY TIME
Happy 6th of July! I hope everyone had a happy, safe, and relaxing 4th. It was a beautiful day. Ruby and I went to the Country Club with friends for the annual lights on the lake party on the 3rd, it rained a bit, but we weathered through it and it ended up being a nice evening. I stayed up past my bedtime for the fireworks, but it was a special occasion and I think Andy would have let me if he was home.
Went to the parents on the 4th for swimming and a picnic. Here I am in the pool with my patriotic
do-rag on my head that my Dad got me.
We played monkey in the middle, pool style, with my niece and nephew for hours and I guess it wore me out cause I was tired when I was done with that.
WINNER OF KICKING BUTT CAMPAIGN ANNOUNCED
So, it is time to reveal the winners of the kicking butt campaign and their prize. wait for it........ hold your pants............. the suspense is building, right?........You all win! I can't pick just one picture, they are all great and the fact that you all took time out of your lives to think about me and take those pictures to cheer me up is too touching to choose just one, so congrats to all the winners, even the ones who are still thinking about their pictures, it is the thought that counts! So, for your prize, I am making a donation this Monday @ the Friends of Dave Pirro Golf Tournament.
I have volunteered the past 7 years at this tournament and I work the first hole. Each year at the first hole we collect money from the participants for a different charity and this year the charity is the Carol M. Baldwin Foundation. We will be "fighting like a girl" real hard to makes lots of money for this foundation. I have already had friends donate $1250 and I am adding $500 to that for you kick butters, so thanks for inspiring me and congratulations on supporting this foundation! pat yourself on your back for that.
SPECIAL SERVICES FOR CANCER PATIENTS
a friend sent me an email about this organization, I am putting it in here in hopes my breast friends still going through treatment will see it and might want to take advantage of these services.
ME - the real UPDATE
It is day 4 since treatment #6. I felt ok the first few days, no nausea and I didn't even take the meds! What I have now is fatigue and muscle aches and pains. The fatigue has been hanging around the last day or so, still able to do things, just slower, and taking more breaks. I actually got the Wii set up on the living room TV and Ruby and I played that for almost 3 hrs, I am a bad Mario Cart driver, but it was fun sitting there trying to get out of 12th place! My legs felt tired, like I had ran a big race or something, but last night in bed they were just aching from my hip down, so needless to say it was a restless night. They don't seem as bad when I am moving around this morning, but I am keeping an eye on it. Shelly gave me some cream for this sort of thing, so I may be breaking it out today.
Looking forward to the boys returning tomorrow. Laying low today, suppose to be a hot one. Stay hydrated,don't forget the sunscreen, and remember to
