I mean really!

I ripped the skin off of my arm WHILE I WAS SLEEPING! Come On! I felt it rip when I moved my arm.

Finally started thinking about food for Christmas dinner.Usually someone volunteers to cook something for the carnivores but so far we are 100% vegetarian. My favorite part has definitely become dressing the table. I’m going old fashioned red & green this year. Lots of primary colors and old fashioned garland on the table.
I think I am officially calling sea bands as ineffective for my chemo nausea. I had to break down last night and take the meds. Not a fan.

Also I have a slightly worrisome thing. I see my oncologist in a couple of weeks, I only see him every three months now, and if it’s still worrisome I will mention it. I am having problem with my left shoulder/arm. It’s a weakness and pain issue. Now I know you’re thinking Cervical cancer that moved to the lungs, why would your arm be worrisome? Lymph nodes and bones, that’s why! I can’t find a specific spot that hurts and exercise doesn’t seem to help or hurt it.

What are those Christmas candies that are soft and minty and chewy and have like Christmas trees in the center? Like a Christmas taffy? I would like to find some of those to add to my decorations.

okay, that’s all.
be nice to someone today. 🙂

    You know…it just occurred to me that I would probably be healthier if all my doctors were required to read my blog posts. Everything that’s important gets typed here!

    Thin skinned? My arms look like that. Because kittens. So I understand why you’re concerned about your arm, I hope you pinched / pulled something maybe in your neck. My left arm is bugging me today. I hate when it’s the left, I always think heart or stroke. Hey! remember when we both had toe cancer that week? Let’s hope it’s like that again. Sorry you’re feeling sick, that just sucks. Love your moon neckalce!!

    Ouch, that looks so sore! I somehow managed to bust a vein in one of my fingers last week, no idea when. I just looked at it & noticed this large horrendous spot on my index finger. It didn’t hurt but the arthritis bump under it did. Hope that sore heals quickly for you.

    Speaking of which, could your arm possibly have some bursitis going on? I have had it lately; it is worse at night. But I would definitely mention that to your doctor!

    I love the decoration plans! And I think that candy is just called Christmas nougat? I saw it somewhere lately! Kroger? Walmart? I can’t remember but I know it’s out there.

    There is a reason I love all of you! Tracy I hope that it isn’t a cancer thing and just an older lady thing. Can I just mention here that I spent most of the night sleeping/dozing in a rocking chair because my darn left arm/shoulder was bothering me.

    Tracy maybe you should be printing out the health related blogs and keep them in a 3 ring binder to take with you.

    I think Susan is right – I think it is Christmas Nougat.
