Well, I had a dr. appointment today, and although I only had Herceptin today, I have only 2 more big doses of chemo. One is next week, and the last one should be on June 26, provided all of my blood work looks good and I can get my doses on time! I'm finally seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. I'm so tired of being bald, pale, heavy (larger than I'm used to), and just all-around unhappy with myself. My hair has started to grow back, but I'm thinking it'll fall back out, because my scalp has started to get really tender just like it did the last time it fell out. We shall see. I'm really bummed about that. I don't have much choice, though.
On to other news... The girls are out of school now, so I officially have a 10th grader and a 1st grader. My babies are getting so big so fast! We're talking about getting Ash into driver's ed classes this summer! Look out world! lol.
So, to celebrate the beginning of summer, Tammy and I took Ash, Carley and Brittany (her daughter) to the beach on Saturday. We all wore sunscreen, but still got burnt! It was pretty hot out. But, we managed to try to teach Carley to body surf... she loves it! Ash was working on learning to skim board. If I were about 10 years younger, I'd try, but as many times as she wiped out, I'd probably break a hip or something! lol. I guess I'll pass on that one.
Then, on Sunday, Tim and I, and Kevin and Tammy took a bike ride. We just went out to the Red Rooster and watched Big Engine play for a while. That was fun. Then we ate at Applebee's and headed home.
The girls spent the night at Tammy's on Sunday night, and then Tammy and I took them to Box Seats (sports bar) for lunch. It was a pretty quiet day on Monday. I think everyone was pretty tuckered out from the weekend. While we were out with the girls, Kevin Jr. took Kevin on a day-trip for his birthday. He rented jet ski's for 2 hours and they had a blast. The trip was a surprise, because nobody would tell Kevin where they were going.
Finally, since Kevin's birthday is tomorrow (Wednesday), we're going to have dinner and cake at their house tomorrow, and then we're planning a big party for him at the Fleet for Friday night (June 1st). We're all pretty excited about that.
I guess that's about all the news for now. Not much else going on. I hope you all had a fun weekend! Hope the weather was as beautiful for you as it was for us!
