i just made the most dreaded appointment so far in this process. yep, the "chemo cut" hair appointment. and i had to make it for 2 days earlier than i wanted because the salon is closed for Labor Day that saturday and i have surgery that friday. so, Thursday August 30th at 6:15pm it is. please excuse me while i go cry my eyes out and barf. possibly at the same time. i might have to be dragged in.
yes, i understand it's "just hair". but guess what? to me, it's not "just hair". it's so much more than that. it's...kind of the only thing (physically) i have left to make me *really* feel like a girl? good thing the "foobs" will be pumped up by then? i guess. something like that, anyway. and yes, i was growing it out to donate anyway and i'm proud to do it but i usually have "long" hair even after i cut it. and this will be short. sigh. dang it.
i can't even talk/type about it anymore. let's move on...
thankfully i'm done with all doctors this week. i've got monday off next week and then something every single (week)day until the next thursday. yikes!
the good news is that i vacuumed today! now settle down! it was only my very small living room and i used both hands to push the vacuum cleaner so it wasn't bad at all. i need the joy of vacuuming in my life! i'll slowly start adding other chores. i need to feel useful! yes, i'm taking it easy and not overdoing it. i slept ALL morning today so...yeah.
time to go enjoy the delicious food they brought us from church tonight. what a blessing!
