Of course it has been a good week ...

It seems to me that since I decided to go with the radiation I have had about the best week for pain in months ... Sooooooo??? Do I cancel the radiation but not tell my body in hopes that maybe there is some kind of mind-body phenomenon decreasing my pain that will continue to love me. But my body is pretty intuitive and might catch on and then there we are back to yuckiness.
I am off to the pain clinic today. Appointment one of some 4-5 preliminary appointments. I am hoping that they will offer me something more than more or different meds ... we will see.

I had a wonderful weekend. Friday night book club ... way too much yummy food, wine, and just the right mix of people. When/If we all get together I imagine that our meetings will be so filling. Just hanging out with so many strong-minded, intelligent women from all different careers and talking about books leaves me feeling like my mind has been nourished and I can't wait to get into the next book. I did not used to like to read ... I don't remember why ... probably because it took away from time with my friends ... "She is such a social-butterfly!"

The rest of my weekend was just filled with new and old friends ... laughing and sharing.

Driving out to see Carrie and Rylan in Okotoks there was the most beautiful sky I have seen in a long time. There were a million different kinds of clouds and waterfalls of sunshine peeking through to light up the country side. And it was so deliciously warm.

It was bound to happen ... I almost fell of the treadmill on Sunday. I was running with Krista and I hate when I can't look at someone when I am talking to them ... but really with my stability I should look nowhere but dead-ahead ... end result - Krista bent in two laughing while I hung from the side bar! Loverly. Is it not so much easier to handle such embarrassment when there is a friend there to laugh with you?
