and it’s on the upswing…. thank goodness. Radiation is complete, side effects from the treatments are over and I’m celebrating day #6 of feeling good. I actually had a very full day yesterday, so today I’m taking it easy… can’t overdo just yet. I know my time will come. My first follow-up appointment with the gyno-oncologist and the radiation specialist is later this month, but I know everything looks good… and the good news is that I’m cancer free.. at least have a less than 1% chance of recurrence.

I’ve missed out on so much of life these past several months…. symphony, theater, parties, family celebrations and hanging out with my knitting and scrapbooking friends. I can also get back to the house redecorating process. Art to hang, furniture to rearrange and old furniture to sell. On the list is replacing the bathroom counter tops with granite in 3 of the 4 bathrooms and getting the master bath painted., but the very next project is the front sitting room. We did buy a sofa sleeper and ottoman in paprika red and fortunately it’s a 6 week delivery date, so that gives me time to contact the painter and get that room emptied out and ready. I also have my yarn cabinet (actually a chest of drawers) in there and I’m considering replacing it with something else… so that’s more furniture to buy and sell. Bob ordered a new computer system for himself.. which includes a new scanner/printer for me and more shuffling around of computer equipment putting a workable unit in the rec room for scrapbooking purposes… which means selling a small computer desk and moving a larger desk down there.  I need to get someone in here to help move furniture… that’s a job NOT for me.
