A Lazy Sunday

I am not sure why, but I woke up tired. And I slept till 10 am. I had been up some during the night, but I never sleep that late and then am still tired. After an exhausting breakfast, shower, then lunch, I took a nap and actually slept again -- usually I just "rest". By about 2:30pm something kicked in, and I felt human again -- did laundry, paperwork and cooked dinner. I am going to blame it on the pollen, rain and a lazy Sunday, but it was probably just crappy chemo.

I was really bummed about starting chemo tomorrow, but then I realized my first couple of days are not that bad -- it is just inconvenient being tied to an IV all day, and they I have some chemo I take home with me for 3 nights in a little purse like pouch. I never sleep very good with that thing as I am paranoid I will turn over and pull it out of my arm. Bathing/showering with it is a pain too. But is it Round 4 so I am just trying to focus on that. I am not sure how long after this round of chemo before they set up the MRI - next week or when. I hope they will pull this PICC line out on Friday after I have fluids but I don't know about that either. I will not see the Dr till Wednesday so I guess I will find out some of this then.

Overall it was a decent weekend. I just continue to be tired all the time, and I really did not expect that. Bob seems to have understood that from the beginning, but I guess being Super Chemo Girl it did not sink into my peabrain. I am getting it now!

I need to go pack for chemo -- get my laptop charged up, work for the week into my briefcase, and maybe a little pleasure reading if I can concentrate. And I have to get it all done in time for Desperate Housewives!
