    Fasting pre and post chemo

    Ha! Yep totally busted! Posting off phone so a bit limited. Going through the final handovers for work. I feel - that if I let it be so - that I'm being slowly taken apart. Combination of surgery, treatment and everything. But. The plus side to this is I get to put myself back together in a new way. And hopefully learn and bring something really special into the next phase of life. Which is pretty cool.
    My soon to be ex boss is an arse btw. Lol. I'd use emoticons but the phone makes them come out like black lines but you get the picture.

    This morning we went to the community garden we've been a part of for a little while. My husbands day off. We checked the plot and picked enough stuff to make a Thai salad for dinner, going to give greens another whirl. And I was looking at the space there, I think I could run community yoga classes in the park around the garden. Not just yet, but in a month or two. So another plan to put together. Love it!

      MHP!!! You get handed lemons, you make lemonaide. That's what I so love about you and your posts. I don't know why but I thought you were a full-time Yoga instructor. I didn't realize you had another job. Good luck with the greens. Hope it goes well.

        On phone again so short and sweet. 3 degrees here - and that is all I will say!! haha...not sure if I can make a living as a full time yoga instructor Ginge but I'm going to give it a go. Still doing a little accounting on the side. Right brain and left brain fighting it out. Keep meaning to say to you how happy I am for you, how strong you have been and continue to be. You're doing so well, keep it up woman. NS hope you are well and continuing yoga xx. Caro, DD, Satz, Daisy and everyone, I think of you each day and you're the reason I post at the moment. Pm you on those questions DD when I can steal computer time again.

                  Thanks Glassy something I've been struggling with though and have been researching is my husband perspective on everything. We talk but I think he is struggling still and is still caught up with a cry now and then. That's ok, I don't see anything wrong about that, I just don't want him to worry or hurt. I found this link but if anyone has any thoughts, please feel free to chime in.

                    Hiya MyHappyPlace,
                    I have had a good weekend in that for the first time since surgery I have been almost pain free!! I also went out for a works night out on Fri and had a wonderful time.

                    Hope you are doing OK .I absolutely loved people doing yoga while their pets intervened, I love cats and dogs so much and thought it beautiful to see them just interrupting their owners!
                    Since the operation I have very little movement on my left side but I am going to start trying yoga as soon as I can as I think this could be a way forward for me, it would certainly give me a sense of achievement.

                    DD xx
                    New life started on 1st May 2014, One day at a time I will work at continuing it forever!

                      DD, I'm so glad you had a good weekend. It's been a long slog for you lately. Keep pushing forward and checking in here. These ladies are amazing.

                      MHP, Hope you are doing well.

                      Have a MAE everyone!

                        Hi, Happy

                        I read an article about career choice that made me think about what you are going through:Here's Proof 'Doing What You Love' Pays Off.

                        The bottom line seems to be:
                        A true vocation is one in which you value and find satisfaction in the work itself.
                        Maybe you were born to be a yoga teacher and what you've been doing (for good reasons such as competency, income, and stability) just isn't enough anymore. It isn't easy to identify our true callings but my bet is that it is worth the effort. Like I wrote to you earlier, your bout with cancer might end up being a springboard for your best possible life.

                        DD, I've read your posts here and in the Newbies Nest. I so admire the way both you and Happy are facing this challenge. What fine role models you are.

                        Love to both of you :l. NS

                          DD, thinking of you - I'm glad you had a good weekend. You're really doing well, hang in there lovely, just work through one day at a time. And really cherish those good days, make sure you get some laughs in and relax.

                          NS, like the article, love your work x and yep, I'm on a springboard all right. Couple more days and I sign off from work really and truly. Cannot wait. Been thinking of you too Ginge x

                          Well, yesterday I bit the bullet and went to a Look Good Feel Better thing. You know where they show you make up and wig options etc? I wasn't going to even get out of bed! glad I did though. It was very cool. I'd said to the friend that went with me, no way was I trying on wigs. Ended up being the wig model. It was a classic. And, can I say that the wigs looked great. I am really critical, my sisters was crap and looked wig like. Only one I tried on made me feel like that, the rest were brilliant. Best one was a shorter dark number with some great foils through it. Felt like a million bucks.

                          I'm feeling a little like I have so many plans and dreams for the future. I'd like to make them happen NOW. And sitting back and healing on the days that I feel well seems unnecessary. Will focus on patience I think! with lots of things but mostly with myself. I think I come here with 100 different ideas every post so maybe I need to put that energy to the healing I spoke of before. Can't hurt.

                          Foodwise, I cant stop eating again....when I'm not eating I'm drinking hot chocolate...true!

                            MHP, You are amazing! How wonderful that you went to the event and actually enjoyed it. I'm reminded that attitude is everything when it comes to overcoming this dreadful disease.

                            DD, Hope you are doing well today.

                            Thinking of you both.

                              Hi Happy and DD,

                              Sorry I have not been offering much support lately.

                              My mums health is not too good (heart) and spending a lot of time travelling to see her at weekends.

                              Just wanted to check in and say hello and hope you are both doing well.

                              Sending positive vibes.

                                Good evening, morning or afternoon all. Caro lovely :l I hope your mum is ok and I bet she appreciates having you spend time with her. Sending some of those positive vibes right back to you x

                                Been a tough week but I'm over work and free at last, concentrating on the positives here leading up to my last chemo session on the AC...not even going to think about the next 12 rounds yet, need to keep focussed on this week alone. And fasting again!! got to put myself in that frame of mind too. All in all I'm good just tired but not grumpy Teaching my first yoga class in ages on Monday - have I said that already? little bit nervous but I think it will be fine. Thinking of you all a lot x
