The weekend has come and gone.  Friday Liz, Emma and myself went to see New Moon! Oh it was so wonderful. I would love to see it again.  But I’ll wait until it comes out on DVD.   The acting is just amazing, the special effects were awesome, and considering how big the actual book is they really kept to the story line.  The book is of course better as there is so much more detail in it. But the movie still ROCKED!

After the movie was over we drove over to Sonic and ate. Oh was that such a wonderful meal. Sonic is a big treat for us that we only get to about once a year.  I think we appreciate it more that way anyway.  I grew up with a Sonic just down the road from where I lived.  The car hops still wore skates back then. Wish they still did.  I think the kids would really get a kick out of that.

If you look back a few blogs I wrote about how my 22 month old was smelling a candle and really enjoying it. I even did a quick video of her. Well with the suggestion of someone I sent in that video clip to the company and I heard back from them.

They loved the clip. Told me it was adorable, thanked me for sharing it with them and will be sending me a coupon to get a free candle for Sarah to pick out. How awesome is that?! I’m planning on recording Sarah picking out her candle. Gotta keep the memories. We can look back on this when she’s older and giggle together about it.

To refresh your memories, here is just a pic of her smelling the Homemade GingerBread candle by Glade.

Saturday we didn’t do to much. I’m not feeling the best. While I did manage to have one good day a week ago. That seems to be where it ends.  My hair is starting to fall out again. I’m having panic attacks and I have no idea what is causing them.  I’m so tired it’s unreal.  I’ve asked Brian to start helping out again but not getting much luck there. Though in his own right he is fighting a bad cold at the moment. So I’m hoping once he gets better he will help me just a smidge. I’m finding doing all the cooking, cleaning, and running after Sarah is just to much for me.  The laundry is piling up, we are living off of very fast and easy dinners.  Though the girls still have their chores, which is of course a big help.

Speaking of the girls. They only have one day of school next week then off for the rest of the week for Thanksgiving Break.  I’ really hope I don’t get this cold that I can feel trying to come to surface. I want this to be a nice Thanksgiving. After all it’s my first doing here at the house and doing all the cooking. Plus it’s my first since I got a second chance at life.

While I love to be able to shout to the world I am Cancer Free. My body is still so worn down from all the surgeries and treatments that I actually feel worse now then I did when I had the Cancer. How odd is that? While from what I understand that is the norm for cancer patients.  Treatment is a necessary evil I’m afraid.  Everyone’s body does something a bit different with it.  My oncologist told me it’s going to be a while that my body has been through so much. I need to remember that but I’m starting to get impatient. I just want to feel good again.  I want to shower and not have the drain be full of hair when I get out. I want my skin to not hurt because it’s so dry. I want to not have panic attacks over nothing.  I want to not feel like crying at the drop of a hat.  I just want to feel like a “normal” person again.

While I AM much better then I was, say a month ago. I’m still so far from being back 100%.  Again, this is teaching me patients.  There are some long term effects I’m finding out from others in my support group that may or may not effect me.  I also have to remember that I have other health issues to begin with. So it might take me a bit longer to bounce back. But I WILL bounce back.

Again patience…maybe if I say it enough it will just happen. LOL

Well, it’s 2 in the morning, I have to be up at 6 to get the girls off for school. I’m hoping I can sleep. I’m just over tired and having problems getting comfey and settling in. So I thought maybe writing a blog would make me feel a bit better.

I’ll leave ya’ll with this…Patience is the key to many doors. All you have to do is wait for the right moment to unlock it.
