I’ll use that as my excuse for not writing last week. So, let’s jump right in, shall we? 
On February 24th, I signed away my tatas. The paperwork is done, so my only thing to do now is stay healthy until surgery on March 18th. I can do this! Today was my last pre-surgery oncologist appointment. They wanted a gallon of blood. Everyone wants my blood right now. It’s kind of disconcerting.
Last week I worked on a job in Australia, so the time difference was pretty extreme. I was done by 2am, though, but it did kinda throw me off for the entire week. Another excuse for not writing. Saturday we went to our local humane society’s grand opening. We did not come home with any dogs, but if I could have snuck them out without my husband noticing, things might have been different. Teehee….
Saturday night we volunteered at a beer festival. It was our first time. We’d probably do it again, but maybe pick the Saturday afternoon session and also insist on backup if we were in a station like that again. I was on my feet from 5pm to 11pm - it’s been a while since that’s happened! Overall, it was a good experience. Would do again. Only had to notify law enforcement of one possible problem drunk.
And then Monday happened. I had breakfast with a friend, a 1.5 hour job and a massage, and yet somehow I ended up having no free time yesterday and being on the go until I got home after 5pm. Days like that happen, I guess. It was a good day, just went too fast.
Who am I kidding? Every day is going too fast at the moment. Two weeks from tomorrow I have major surgery. And other than, oh, the cancer, I’m fine. I don’t feel sick. I don’t look sick. I kinda look like a Korean pop star because I haven’t gotten my hair cut since December - just not as cool, though, because I am not a K-Pop star. Nope.
Looking at my schedule this week and next, it’s busy with work - gotta keep making money - and also with friends and things to do. I hope it doesn’t go too fast, but I know it will.
A big thank you, again, to everyone who has helped me during this time. I hope I can be helpful to those who need it in the future. I’m working hard - maybe too hard? - to try to get things straightened up with us and all our finances so we can pay it forward very soon. Soon may be a few years, but, hey, I’ve still got a student loan payment. Was hoping to knock that one out by the time I was 40. Oh well!
Cheers!
