aren't scary, 'cause they come in all shapes and sizes....that is actually a favourite line of mine from a romance novel if you can believe it! And my angels these days are certainly far from scary, they are, in fact, the most fantastic creatures around. They have brought us food this past week, which has been a wonderful blessing, and today a very special one is even taking both girls out to lunch and then to the Science Center.(Thanks Mary)
I am not one who likes to rely on anyone but myself and this has been a challenging time for me in that regard. Granted I have no problem letting my parents take the girls for the weeks of chemo(thanks to my two biggest angels) but the small things are harder for me to let go of. It took an argument for me to see the rationality of letting others cook for me, and thankfully Ed was up to the task of opening my eyes. And then there's the house...
For years, almost 9 to be precise, it has been my domain. I have had complete creative control(paint colors, furniture placement, etc.) and while Ed has certainly helped with all the big things....it has been my....kingdom. Now, granted, I have no delusions about me being a housekeeper, in fact I hate it. I will clean...when necessary, but mostly I just keep up with the girls and dishes and laundry. That has all changed this summer. I haven't kept up with anything, but luckily he has. And not only that, he has come in and cleaned and organized where I dared not go! So this is a gigantic thank you to my most wonderful angel who has dared to brave my piles and layers and get to the bottom of them...you are amazing, thank you.
And, I am doing ok, feeling better this round than last...except a few mouth sores but they did say that would happen, and a bit of nausea that comes and goes. Other than that I am feelin' fine.
Blog ya later-
