Monday 2^nd July

This will be a random blog tonight so you need to concentrate and try to keep up-ok?

Started the day watching the dawn come up- it was beautiful, but sadly didn’t last, I did get back to sleep which was a bonus!

Heard one of my favourite ‘old’ songs on the radio at breakfast so felt I had to have a dance around the kitchen, much to the disgust of son and daughter (I didn’t care; I had the feel good vibes!)

 Made the wise choice not to go to aqua aerobics, too tired and water would have been too chilly, besides want to get rid of these mouth ulcers first.

My daughter and I were on a mission, to blitz her bedroom! We began at 10am and other than a short break for lunch- finished at 3.30pm!

I needed some fresh air so a short walk was in order (bad timing, started to rain!) Despite having to stop and rest going uphill I enjoyed it and must be getting out of the ‘post chemo slump’.

Honestly, I feel saturated with chemotherapy I’m sure I smell ‘chemical’!! Plus I’m getting to the point I can almost count my eyebrow hairs so things are getting bad!!

At last the vegetable garden is producing veg we can eat, (I need to justify my gardening catalogues) - we had mange tout peas last night, and this evening I picked chard, spinach and kale to supplement the tasty pork and beans-delicious!

Now the absolutely best bit of today was the postman arriving with son no 3’s degree results- and ……………………………. He had 69.45%- which means a 2:1, cruelly a half % short of a first!!!!!!!! So proud of him, a brilliant achievement in Business Management……………now about getting a job….!!!
