Where were we.....Tuesday, first thing had to take my horse tablet of an anti-biotic as I had forgotten it the day before. I have to take them Monday - Wednesday - Friday for the 6 months I am on oral chemo, you'd think it would become routine right! wrong.....I still struggle to take my anti-convulsants morning and night and I've had them since last December!! I have become Dorey from Finding Nemo! Kids all fed, clothed…

So the first full week of school for the kids and my first full week of being "retired" at 42 years old........hmmmmmmmmmmm Woke to my alarm at 7am, uniforms were done and sorted on Saturday so no worries there, organised 3 packed lunches and one lot of PE kit and finally by 8.15am the house was mine and mine alone - bar the dogs. The walk over the park the day before had taken it out of me....so I settled on the sofa…

Sunday morning and hubby and I both wake around 8.30am first thing he says is "I've got a horrible headache, don't know about you"..................had he jinxed me??? Because I did have a headache but the kind I get when I've slept in too long. We got up and had a cuppa together and I forced down a small bowl of muesli, remembering that I had forgotten to take the Senna the night before! Shit...or no shit as it would…

Woke really early Saturday morning - around 6am ish, probably because I went to bed so early Friday night!!!! As I opened my eyes I knew the "buttercup" headache was still there before I even lifted my head from my pillow - feckin great!!!!!!!!!! Came downstairs and got a glass of squash, still feeling slightly nauseaus and didn't know if it was the chemo tabs, the headache or the fact I needed to go to the toilet.…

Short and sweet today - like me :| Why, cos all I did was sort the kids out for school, find correct PE kit for each child and give them their lunches and once they went I headed straight to the couch with my pillow and a throw. I stayed there watching a Greys Anatomy marathon till 12.30pm when I decided I was a bit peckish. Just didnt fancy anything or making anything so settled for 3 slices of "best of both" bread…
