This morning I woke up to the most beautiful sunrise. At 6 a.m. I went outside to take a picture in this very cold weather. The photo is beautiful in my camera... but my brain isn't working so that I can get it onto this new laptop. Maybe tomorrow. Bright mandarin orange, with silver tip snow clouds coming into view above the sunrise.
Then I spent the early morning making up my broccoli drink, and a protien drink for the next three days. My tongue is still sore from chemo week, and trying to keep carbs out of my diet so that my glucose will lower... so, drinks for now. Tomorrow I go into the doctor (actually two doctors) and hopfully will have medicine adjusted again so that it won't be so difficult. I have three pairs of glasses that I am rotating so that I can see, and sometimes two pair at once. What a picture, I remind myself of my mother. I am so glad I did not tell her how funny she looked. We siblings talked about mom and her glasses, but we didn't actually tell her personally.
Today was another sewing group meeting that I missed. With my being up and down all day, fuzzy headed and blurry sight there is no way I could make it in to be with them. Actually, since this last chemo I have been finding it overwhelming to stay up and chat on the phone. Can you imagine... Marie at a loss for words? With the computer I can type, lay down, get up and type again. It may take all day, but until I shut down the words are there and I don't have to keep trying to focus on my thoughts from five minutes before. This is only day four since chemo ended, and it is better than yesterday. I will not give up. Each day there is something to be grateful for if you look for it.
Found a cute sign: LORD help my words to be tender and gracious today, for tomorrow I may have to eat them.
