It's Been A While

I've been neglecting the blog lately. Since finishing chemo I don't feel like I have as much to say. Physically I am still tired and not sleeping well. I feel like I need a nap every day and that's just not realistic. I do rest when I can and have also been reading a lot more than usual. Emotionally I am more anxious than ever, wondering if the cancer is truly gone or when/if it will reappear. Friends who have been through this tell me the first year of waiting is the worst and it gets easier. This past month has been a transitional time. I went back to my regular 3 day work schedule the first week in March. The kids are back to after school care. Nathan started Little League. Amanda's friend Nina has been spending more time with us. Austin and I are planning our 16th wedding anniversary. We had a great Easter. I've been down to the beach with friends and family, which has been fabulous! The surgery to remove my port was quick and painless. I got the stitches out last week. I'm preparing for a vacation to the sun and have been having foob related swimsuit issues - they just don't look right, but as long as they stay secured in the suit nobody will even know. Life is good!
