Planks are evil. My trainer had me doing them at the very end of our workout, which is even worse. I had to hold them for 30 seconds, which doesn’t sound like a lot, but those seconds felt like an eternity.
This week has been so much fun that I can hardly believe that tomorrow is Friday. In particular, Monday night was crazy fun. The boyfriend and I were up until 2:30 am and I’m still not even sure how it got that late. That’s a sign of a great night.
I have another awesome weekend planned with the boyfriend. So many fun things on the agenda. Can’t wait.
The Mini is so much fun to drive. It’s also fast! I pick up speed very quickly and without even noticing. I love to drive fast, so I anticipate getting into a lot of trouble with this car, though I did set the speed alert to 80 mph. At least I can fix my own tickets. Lawyer perks.
Happy August! I have my three month follow-up scans this month. I’m a bit nervous about that. I’m trying not to dwell on it. If the cancer is back, it’s back, and obsessing won’t change that.
That said, having a cancer/cancer-treatment free month has been fucking amazing. I feel like a completely different person.
Being treatment free in July has given me a chance to realize just how much cancer has changed me. I knew it had, but I’m discovering it has changed me in more ways than I anticipated. I feel like the change is mostly positive. I appreciate life more. I’m going after the things I want. I refuse to sit on the bench while life passes me by. I did that for too long. There will be no more of that.
I finally have an upstairs neighbor. They moved in today and it was really loud. I’m a bit worried, but it has been pretty quiet since the movers left so maybe it won’t be so bad. *hoping*
Jax is always obsessed with the fish at the vet’s office, so I bought him his very own fish tonight. He is a Betta fish. Jax named him Nemo, of course.
I haven’t had a hot flash in weeks. I start Tamoxifen this month though, so that may change. I really hope not.
And because you know you want it, here is a 16 weeks post-chemo hair pic.
