One shot, two shots, three shots, floor!

Ok, so I’m not actually doing alcoholic shots though that would be fun.  I haven’t had a drink since November of 2012, not even on my wedding day.  For the wedding I got no sugar added organic apple cider, it was actually pretty tasty.

Anyway, I had a pretty rough week last week.  It was actually the culmination of a couple rough weeks brought on by low white blood cell counts causing me to have to skip a chemo treatment and have more of those ugly mouth sores as well as low energy levels.

Making Wishes

“30 you’ve only just begun” those few little words on a birthday cake candle were enough.  I couldn’t help but think of my own thirtieth birthday just three years ago and if I’d only known then where I would be now.  Tears started to well up in my eyes and though I willed them not to fall, they fell anyway.  I kept it together until we were in the car on the way home and then I just lost it.
