07.16.05 Saturday

Well, I don't want this to be a daily chronicle of my chemo, but I will say that I feel a little better today. Most of Thursday and all of yesterday, I felt like I was kicked in the side and thrown down a flight of stairs. Today, I just feel like I was licked in the side. I haven't kayaked since Thursday, probably won't go today - too sore. I do hope to go swimming but I'm not as motivated as I was before. I had a hunch this would happen which is probably why I was all 'gun-ho' before I started up with this crap again. Also, my fuc*ing car is STILL not right. Of course, I bring it in to the mechanic, and like a bad tooth during the ride to the dentist's office, my car is fine while it is at the shop. Starts every time, not one probelm. I get it home, go to start it this morning, and nada. So, back on the phone to the mechanic and they are going to flat-bed it to the shop. The car does have 275,000 miles on it, but I'm not ready to put it to pasture (plus we can't afford a new one, so that, as they say, is that). I just don't feel like dealing with all of this little BS that is such a major part of life. I try not to dwell on it since in the scope of things, it is so trivial. Anyway, I hope to post something a little more interesting later or tomorrow.

  • Wow, what kind of car do you drive? My parents both drive Volvos with over 100K miles on them, and ever since my dad read about a Volvo that made it to 1 million miles that has been his goal.

    Nice to see him applying himself with such gusto to something.

    p.s. you know about my fear of falling down the stairs. Now I will also fear being thrown down!

  • Chloe, It is indeed a 1989 240DL Volvo Wagon. This guy has over 2 million miles on his Volvo (that was in July of 2002). It's a good goal to set. I figure my car has made it to the moon, now I have to drive it back!
    I have a fear that my feet will one day turn into that ugly one on the left!!
    Watch out for those fears ;-)
