....long weekend.....

Its hard to believe we are in July already and six months into 2010. I only have 3 more radiation treatments left this week and I'm done. Thank goodness for that as the radiation has already caused its dumb side effects. My mouth feels like a cotton ball and my throat is soar. On top of that I have managed to get a cold (I think) or at least I'm super stuffed up and feel like I have a nasty head cold. It's kind of hard to tell if I'm just having side effects from my radiation treatments or I'm getting the flu/cold. ieieie Sooo just as my chemo side effects kind of started to subside I have a new set of problems revolving around my mouth and throat...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!! Bye bye taste buds and hello dry, soar mouth. Boooooooooo

I've been mostly taking it easy this long weekend as I've been feeling pretty crapola but managed to get out a bit and enjoy the weather and some good company. Today I was able to walk down to a friends bbq and then over to another friends little get together which was nice to see everyone and get out of the house for a few hours. (totally exhausted now....yawn) Yesterday I got out for a couple of hours to trying in vain to see the 'tall ships' and then just ended up having lunch in Distillery District before crashing at home for the night.

Here I am Sunday night and heading off to bed - tomorrow is session #8 of radiation .. meaning only 3 more to go ending this Wednesday - finally.....smile!!!!

Hope everyone had a awesome long weekend......
