Changes

It's pretty amazing how quickly my health changes.  I had a couple of days where I had trouble breathing and was really cranky.  Then suddenly I felt much better!  Well enough to go grocery shopping with my son.  I overdid it a bit though so I am very appreciative that he helped me a lot.  He packed the groceries at the store, brought them into the house and even put most of them away for me.  Love that young man!  After the shopping, I had a 2 hour or so nap and still went to bed fairly early for me.  

Today I feel great!  Breathing isn't too bad and my mood is really good.  Today I really feel like I'm going to beat this cancer!

Working on the cards for my sister's Red Hat Society group.  When I started doing these cards, I thought they would bore me to tears doing 24 of the same cards.  But once I chose the colours to work with and decided how I was going to go about colouring them it became really easy.  Even fun with the extra decorations I put on each card.  The reason I bring up the cards today is because they have been a good thing for me.  No thinking involved but the action of colouring the ladies on the cards got me away from thinking about the cancer all the time.  Something I really needed and I even ended up making more cards than requested! 
Now the cards are nearing completion, I'm trying to think about what project I will take on next.  I should be done the cards in the next couple of days and still have another week or so before treatments start.  I don't want a project that will take a ton of thinking but something similar to what I was doing for my sister.  Maybe I'll start working on some boxes of cards for Christmas/birthday/whatever gifts.  I really liked the ones I made at Christmas so may make more like them.

It really feels good to be in a great mood today.  Here's to hoping the mood continues!
