Thursday was one of those days only made worse by getting more blood taken for stem cell matching! It seemed like they took all the blood out of my body and probably the closest I have ever come to passing out!!! So thursday was not the best of days and very lo-key the rest of the day!
Lets get to the glorious relaxing FRIDAY!!! You know woke up blah blah blah boring everyday stuff and then went to help my mom at her kitchen to prepare for the saturday market and delivered some food to a couple places!
After working so hard at the kitchen I was able to get a bang trim at Elements Salon, which was much needed!!
Outside of Native Citizen Look you can see my eyes!!!!
It feels so great to be able to see with out hair over my eyes! Thanks so much Michaela. Janice and I then stumbled upon this adorable home decor store down the street from Elements Salon, Native Citizen with AMAZING things. I cannot wait to have a home that I can start decorating with non Ikea furniture!!!
And you say the day can't get better...oh it does!! My amazing Aunt Wilma gave me the best massage of my life!! She is the best ever and oh man was I really relaxed afterwards (i'm not biased at all :) )
And then day ended with a little retail therapy and in my PJ's by 7.30!!! It was a great self-care day and much needed after my long day of appointments thursday!
new yoga pants and sandals!!! WOOOOHOOOO
as always thanks for all the support and outpour of love my way it is definitely felt
Love me some retail therapy!
ReplyDeleteLane, how ironic that I would have reconnected with your Mom due to her posting a magnificent photo of some modern quilts. I live in Mexico in the mountains. I just happen to be in Houston right now with a little time on my hands and saw that you write a blog on blogspot also. For some reason I decided to read it tonight.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in your involvement with MDA. My daughter also had a blood cancer in her mid 30's. We were SO impressed and grateful for the compassion, professionalism and leading edge technology. Be sure to ASK all questions that come to mind - no matter how inconsequential they may be. Like what CAN I eat? Can I have massages? How much water should I drink? Idiotic things like that make a difference.
I write a blog called BabsBlog. If I can in any way be of help to you, please let me know. My email address is babsofsanmiguel@yahoo.com My only advice is "Take it one day at a time"
and think positive thoughts.
I'll be thinking of you...........Barbara Eckrote
Thanks for the advice Barbra. Yeah sometimes I feel silly ask the simple questions but i've always believed in thought of no question is too small and it never hurts to ask! So sorry to hear that your daughter had a blood cancer as well.
Deletethanks again for the comment!
