Week 3 and Monday ,,,, is another great day!

Girls found a "hide-e-hole" to play in this morning,

which kept them out of

their mother's "not there for much longer" hair!

Skipped off to Westfield about 10am.  I can't remember the last time I had a chance to do some shopping on a Monday morning, and it was a very pleasent experience indeed, and the place was very empty and the sun was out!  First stop - Gloria Jean's in Boarders for a browse around the books, and sip on the new Almond & Honey Primo Coffee - it's a hit!

Off to the post office, then a browse around Myers ,,,,, off to McDonalds for a cheeseburger! (a bit naughty) Duck into coles for some miscellaneous food items then home in time to pick up the family for a trip to the local Paeditrician for Brookie who was needed her follow up visit from her hospital stint a month or so ago with pneumonia. I'm feeling like a YUPPIE SOCCER MUM!

Outcome from appointment with Paed is that Brookie has a cold at the moment, but most importantly I'm confident that there are not longer-term issues relating to the pneumonia or asthema etc, which is a relief!

We are having a relaxing afternoon at home, simply chillin ,,,,,,,,,, Ahhhhh.  Really, if I hadn't seen the pictures for myself relating to the lymphoma, I'd be doubting that I actually had it.  Ok, its day 3 and there'rs a long road ahead however, truely, the anti-drugs handle the side-effects amazingly!  And I feel fine!

Also, if I didin't think I was going completely mad on Saturday, I would have said I had already felt that the lump was smaller.  Interesting, my friend Jan in Germany and the nurse Debbie from the Day Surgery who called to check up on me this morning - - actually agree!  The chemo works that fast in "melting" the lump, that people do apparently report changes within 24hrs of starting the chemo therapy ,,,,,,, bloody amazing! 

Righto - I'll drink to that! :p MK
