celebrate

Wow..I just a scare..I went to my blog to post and it said it is not longer here?  What?   Oh I hit the wrong key.   It's all good.   Been sitting here going through insurance statements, bills, etc. this is like a part-time job just keeping up with all that!  If you don't keep on top of it..you could find out that things aren't always the way they seem on all those pages.  I spend a good deal of my time about 2 times  week going through all these things. Makng sure the amounts match what they say I owe, if the Ins. matches what the provider says I owe... and to make it worse...you don't just get billed from one place of service.  Just because you went to ONE place you get little pieces of bills from everyone.  I know have six different business that I am getting bills from but only went to one place.  How do people keep up with this?  It is crazy!!

Welcome to my world...crazy.  My head has gone crazy.  I am finding myself not able to think clearly.  Example....my words escape my mouth...I am trying to think of something and it wont come out.   I opened the refrigerator door this morning to put my pop parts in to toast!!!  I have to have family complete my sentences now. I  officially have chemo brain!!!!   It is real.

My wonderful Momma celebrated her 80th birthday last night.  We all were able to go out to eat together with family and a few special friends.  What a wonderful thing to get to celebrate.

A little funny,....if you know my Daddy.you know what a cut up he can be.  Well we went to a Mexican place to eat now.   So most everything is having to be explained to him and a couple of the other ones about what things are and how to order.  Well...my Daddy is trying to order..he said.  I want the Hawaiian chicken... I want a baked tater with that. ...I'm like really? do they even have those..and I want a chef salad.  The waiter looked around and just smiled.  Katie said : Grandaddy look around you..we are not in a steak house".  He got his tater and his salad.  It was a fun night.

I ate much!  I ate it all.  If one thing has not been hindered it is my appetite.  I can eat everything and it is good.  I make sure my family sees that I m doing ok... especially the parents.  I sat across from Daddy..he always gets real serious at some point when we are together to ask me how I am and to make sure I am ok.   Last night when I was chowing down on everything on my plate.. I made the comment about how good it was and how much I was eating...he stopped and looked over at me to make sure ...I know that helped him...to see that I really was doing good.

I can't quite seem to shake this last treatment as good as previous ones.  I run out of steam so fast.  I guess it was good while it lasted.  I live on my nausea meds most days.  It does help!!!

I still have so much to be thankful for.  I am so thankful it has really not been so bad.  I am so thankful for the people I have around me, supporting, praying,  calling  cooking and yes...helping keep the house up.   I just need someone to give our dog Abby a bath!!!  Anyone???

Looks like it is going to be a beautiful couple of days,  I may try to sit out side in the shade a little.  I'll try not to burn my head...although I could use a little tan up there!!

Have a great day God Bless you all,  Mel
