The last few days have been lovely. Got to go out for the day, spent Easter with family, caught up with a friend and my lovely sister helped me sort through all my clothes....but now I'm pooped.

All the interactions and going out has drained all my energy and this afternoon it hit home a little bit that I am unwell and that I do need to rest. I just hate feeling like that, so I do try and ignore it. But I know, tomorrow I just need to rest.

My next lot of chemo is Friday and this is the first one that I've actually dreaded. Not so much the chemo itself but all the bits around it. The lack of sleep due to the steriods and the feeling crap afterwards. My mouth has only just got back to normal and I want it to stay that way.

I'm wallowing this evening, but I won't stay there.

A couple years back a guy called Paul McGee came to work to do a talk in regards to S.U.M.O...Shut up, move on.

It's something I've had in the back of my mind since going to his talk. Wallowing is ok, as long as you don't stay there.

So for me, a good day's rest and I'll be back on track again.

I have some positives to look forward to;

- Friday is my last chemo for a bit (and we will get Maccies Breakfast!)

- My Surgery should take place in May

- I'm nearly half way through my treatment

- I have a new patio down and nearly ready to use

- I can get the hot tub out soon and spend more time outside in the garden

- I have such lovely family and friends
