Zzzzz

I have got off pretty lightly so far regarding the possible side effects of Paclitaxel. I have had no anti emetics, and have managed to fend off nausea. One thing I am noticing though, is a sudden onset of the 'wearies'. I didn't have my lovely girl this weekend so P and I were out in the garden clearing and shredding. it was a beautiful day in the sunshine with a brief trip to the garden centre to get seed trays and other garden paraphernalia. We got alot done and it felt good to spend the whole day in the sun, listening to the birds and the river and doing my G.I. Jane bit in the open air.

As evening approached I realised that the 'wearies' were setting in, naturally this is great being evening. The problem is I am then waking up at 4am, this seems to have stuck and has become a feature of most mornings. So today, Reflexology day, hooray, a nice long crystal charging relax and lymphatic system cleanse....I was to meet my friend (with a short term memory due to a brain injury) after my blood test at the hospital today, i forgot to check the appt had gone in her diary........I had forgotten my phone too......recipe for a 'no show'. Ho hum, then having trapsed to and fro town endlessly, I showed up for the reflexology, which had to be cancelled (no phone, so no message received.....) by this point I was ready to drop and wished I could rewind to the morning.

Homeward bound I am greeted by a sea vegetable gift from a friend in the village hanging on my door, perfectly timed and made me smile, then another greeting by a student finance letter, insinuating I may owe them money.....now the form filling begins, changing benefits etc etc....just as the lovely government is looking to make cuts to us folks with serious illness and disability.

Can't wait for my girlie tonight I need a cuddle

Where's my bed......I maybe gone sometime......
