chemo #2

today the doc was going to adjust the dose since the fatigue gets worse with each treatment.  I said don't do it.  I would rather feel bad and get more meds to the "poison" so we can get this &$!+.... so he said we would see how I do with the same dose as last time. Kelly came a watched movies with me today.  David went back to work for a while.  Nice to spend time with Kelly.  Had not talked to her for a while.

I figured out some advantages for not having my own hair:

• saves money on hair dresser appts.  will miss the great conversation, Jan
• also save on hair color supply
• waking in the wind the hair does not blow in my mouth
• when leaning over the sink to brush my teeth nothing gets in my way
• no eating hair with food
• David can have the hair dryer all to himself, all thirty seconds it takes him the dry the "strip" around the bottom of his head
• if my head get hot I can just pull off my hat or wig
• when it grows back I know that I look good in short spiky hair, since I used to have hair almost that short
• it should shorten my preparation time significantly
• I'm sure there are more, and I will come up with them as time passes, feel free to chime in.

went to whole foods-depressed in there

then went to bed bath and beyond-better in there

then to walmart-always great there

better get some shut eye. will try to go for staff meeting in am.  based on last time I should be ok to do that.
