It's Almost Christmas

Bharata arrived yesterday, timing worked out perfect, his flight was delayed in Charolette, so he arrived later than anticipated and my chemo went quickly, so I had just finished as he arrived, didn't even have to park the car! Is that perfect timing or what? I had been craving a BIG breakfast all afternoon, and my nurse told me where I could get one so we headed way out somewhere and I pigged out! It certainly hit the spot, not really the best food choices but sometimes you just gotta treat yourself!

Today we went to Whole Foods to stock up on some things I needed, ran in Target fo a car charger for the cell phone and exchanged my shoes at Macy's. I was surprised, Target & Macy's weren't that crowded, now Whole Foods on the other hand was a zoo! Neil is going to try to come by tomorrow afternoon and spend Christmas Eve with us and fly to Chicago for work on Christmas morning! That will be great if the flights work out!

I'm feeling pretty good today, I didn't actually get out of bed until 11:30, but I don't count that, I was up at 10:00 but there were 3 episodes of "The New Adventures of Old Christine" on back to back - that show would almost make it worth getting a TV, except I would also have to get cable - but I will check to see if it's available on iTunes! Let's face it, it isn't like I've seen all the old episodes. But none the less, I count myself as having gotten up at 10:00. That isn't too bad when you take into account the fatigue from chemo. Plus after we got home from Whole Foods, we walked a quarter of a mile around the second floor balcony that overlooks the lobby - so I think I'm doing pretty well, all things considered. It isn't the actually walking that's difficult, it's just boring going around in circles over and over, it took 13 laps to make a quarter of a mile. They have chair yoga on Tuesdays & Thursdays, I may just boom out and try that next week. I'm just going to feel really bad if I'm the youngest (which I probably will be) and the only one with a husband with a yoga center (which I'm sure I will be) and then I'm the worse one in class! At least it's exercise and if I start going, I'm sure I'll improve, so I just need to mark it on my calendar and force myself to start, otherwise I'll do what I did this week, be tied up doing something else and say I'll go next time and once again find myself otherwise occupied! It's the starting that's key - so hopefully Tuesday will be the day, maybe I can get Bharata to push me to go.

Well, we're at Starbucks and it's already dark, which means even colder, so we're going to head back home before the temperature drops much more and we turn into ice sculptures :-) just kidding, it's not that cold! Talk to you guys tomorrow. Have a great night and hope if you have anything left to do for Christmas, you get it done tomorrow!
