Monday already

Monday came way too soon.  Working OT a full day on Saturday could not suck more.  I get to do it all over again this week blech.

On a better note, I got the photo album from my boudoir session.  I was supposed to get a disc with the pictures but she forgot.  I should get it in the mail any day now.

I gave the book to Dennis yesterday, the first thing he asked me when he finished looking at it was "well, has the expense and pain been worth it?"  I told him I would do it again tomorrow if I had to.



I don't even look like the same person.

For some reason my weight is up to 115.8.  Not sure what that is about.  Stress maybe?  My face is broken out like a teenagers right now so it is possible.  It could also be hormones since I am on the last week of my pills. 

Dennis is doing better but is still having some symptoms off and on.  He promised me he would call his doctor today.  I called and reminded him an hour ago, I will call him when I go to lunch to make sure he remembered. 

My mom is having a port put in today.  She did her first round of chemo in a regular IV and had severe pain in her arm for a week.  She couldn't stand for anything to touch her arm.  This is a side effect of the drugs but not very common.  According to the nurses, the only way to stop this from happening is to use a port for chemo.  He goes back in next week to do it all again, so we will see.  So far that has been the only side effect she has had.  Of course she is tired and has had some abdominal cramping, but nothing worse then when you take a strong antibiotic on an empty stomach.  I hope it stays that way.

I am going to use my overtime money to buy new running shoes.  I have worn Pearl Izumis for years but since I have started losing weight I have gotten blisters on my toes with anything over a 3 mile run.  At first I thought maybe when they changed the design this time they made the toe box shorter.  But, maybe after 65 pounds my feet have changed?  I think it might be a good idea to go in and have the people at the running store see what they think.  In the meantime, I bought an extra pair of the design before this one because they are light blue and cute and could be worn as gym shoes or work shoes when I have to walk alot.  I am going to try and see if the toe box theory is correct.

I can't find my motivation to start work today.  Guess I better try to do something before lunch.

Have a great week.

  1. 1. I had a joke in my head that I WANTED to tell you but I didn't want to offend you, but I'm just gonna jump out there anyways and if you hate me I am SORRY but I just....well....I wanted to ask if you had shown Dennis your photo album and he got so excited that he...well, yeah. IN ANY CASE I'm glad he's feeling better but definitely he should follow up with his dr!

    2. I have decided FOR SURE! that I am going to do a boudoir session for my husband for Valentines Day or our anniversary. So I'm going to be keeping an eye out for a groupon or something to do it! You inspired me!

    3. YAY new shoes!

    4. I will be thinking of your mom. My dad had a port for his chemo and it ended up being a blessing without having to have so many IVs, etc. You're a good daughter!

  2. I wanna get some of those sexy pics taken...but not yet.

    Keeping your mom in my prayers. Watching my mom go through Chemo is one of the hardest things I have ever done.
