Ohh we're half way there...OHHH Livin on A Prayer!

 Today was a very important day for me. It marked the half way point of my chemotherapy treatments...3 down, 3 to go. I cannot wait til this is all behind me, and my calender is full of social events instead of blood draws and chemo dates. Although, I do have to say I had an awesome time catching up with my friend Megan at chemo today. Even the nurse pointed out what a good mood I always seem to be in and how wonderful it is I have different family/friends that come with me to chat. Honestly, tell me a better way to spend the mandatory 3 hours in the chair? We caught up on everything that has been going on at the Flagler Tavern since I haven't been able to cocktail waitress since July :( and everything that has changed since treatment started...and then we went out to lunch at La Fiesta...it was great. It's very important to me to keep some sense of "normal" in my life...it makes the situation all that easier to deal with on a day to day basis. Other than that I have been extremely busy this week. Work has thrown yet another curve ball at the us, and that was a stress in itself. We are 5 days away from our flight to Chicago for my cousin's wedding....SOO EXCITED....and I just got my dress in that I am going to wear...not to shabby looking, considering...lol (see pic). I am really looking forward to this trip, and I am praying everyday that the side effects of chemo subside alittle sooner this time around so I can enjoy the 4-5 days of my trip. It has been 5 years since I have been in the good 'ol Windy City, and this marks Aiden's first plane trip...so fingers crossed everything goes well. Will be blogging as much as I can to keep everyone posted. Off to bed now...this cancer chick has to get her beauty sleep...lots of love.
