it's been way too long!

Wow, I haven't written in forever! Sorry! Nothing has really changed, which is the reason I haven't blogged. No news is good news I guess. I have been on a few wonderful vacations in the meantime and have had a really nice summer. I guess not working is really all that it's said to be. Except for the cash flow that is..... Ok Vaca number 1 was to New York for 10 days with my dad. 5 days in upstate visiting my sister and her family, Niagra falls and the finger lakes area. It was wonderful. Then we had a full 5 days in New York City! I absolutely loved the city! I could live there. I mean seriously, I wish I would have gone sooner, I think I would have tried to go to college there or somehow at least lived a year there. It's the most amazing place I have ever been, and I've been to some cool places. I'll try and get some pics up this week. Tony and I went to LA this past weekend to catch a Dodger game and spend some time around lala land, I love Santa Monica. I loved it so much. But mostly I loved spending time with the hubs! The rest of the time I've been getting chemo and recovering from it as much as I can before I go back for more. Lately my biggest complaint is the white blood cell booster shot. It causes so much physical pain for days and it sucks! The pain and other side effects from chemo have been pretty well managed but I can't find anything that will even touch the muscle pain I get from that booster shot. My nurses have been trying everything to help with a solution too and still nothing. So if you happen to know what helps muscle pain from nuprogen shots, I'd love to hear about it. Bone pain is more common, but i dont have that and if I did have i, its been fixed. So far I've tried oxy, aleve, Tylenol, Advil, cold shower, hot shower, laying still, stretching, clarion d, anxiety medication- pain and aciety go together like peanut butter and jelly! And finally, lots of water..... I just had a thought, one more thing to try, and I get a shot tomorrow that I can try my idea on, wish me luck! But I think it just might work, I'll keep you posted.
