Busy life, no time for cancer ;)

Well, today started the 2nd week of radiation.  Jill is starting to get a bit irritated.  Well, her skin is irritated.  She is always irritated with my kids fighting each other or anything I do.  But she has felt good and has been busy.  Working, heading to soccer games, cleaning the house, running a party for Holly on Friday, and so many other things.

One thing that anyone with any illness can tell you – life refuses to stop for any reason.  We have had good things (stuff for my 40th birthday, Holly’s party, and some family time), bad stuff (I lost an Aunt a few days ago) and some run of the mill stuff.  At times I feel guilty of not giving this disease enough of my worry.  In reality, that is a good thing – I think.  I do not go to bed or wake up worrying about what if’s.

This coming weekend we are going to do a ‘staycation’ for my birthday.  We will be staying downtown Indy for two nights.  One night with kids, one without.  Basically, enjoying the moment and getting away a bit. 

We will meet with the plastics guy this Thursday.  I will update after that.
