Forced down time

Hello people,

Yesterday I had a day of forced down time.  I woke to an excruciating headache.  Imagine the worst hangover of your life amplified.  This brought on a huge wave of nausea, that could not be fought by even the toughest of anti nausea medicines.  Follow this with a bought of exorcist style vomiting, and then hours of being passed out because of a compound of phenergan.  That ties up my day with a bow. 

Because I was ill yesterday,  Mo had to cancel plans we had with family.  Which was a bummer.  I don't get to see my sister in law Linda very often and was really looking forward to seeing her.  I am learning that I am not in charge any more.  Cancer rules.  (Not like YEA, Cancer Rules man! ) It is the boss now. 

Today I feel quite wimpy and fatigued.  My mood is good.  Mo is keeping me home from church because of how weak I feel.  ( he is very protective, and I love him muchness for that) He doesn't want me to overdo it and feel gross again.  The crappy part of a three week cycle of chemo is that just as I begin to feel well on Monday, I go back Tuesday for another round. 

Good news is I received a shipment of makeup I ordered.  So While I am sitting on my butt today I might play with that to keep myself busy.  Plus, putting my "mask" on may make me feel more like myself.  You can find more info on makeup stuff and things that make life beautiful on my other channel, http://www.missditz-thebeautifullife.com

Thank you for stopping by to read my blog.

Micro blading when you have cancer.

Here is  what happened.   I lost my eyebrows to cancer treatment.  Over 6 plus years of multiple courses and  types of chemo's have prevented my brow hair from growing back.  Thanks to minoxydl, I have hair on my head and tho sparse, My lashes have returned.  I have told myself to be grateful for what I have.  Yet there has been this little part of me that feels less feminine without brows.  Less expressive, less myself.  Yes, I do draw them on, but that is such a ordeal.  I know, I know, First world problems, right.  Well, no brows is just  another insult to my scarred, breastless body.  I made a call a week ago to Chicago microblading, and spoke with a lovely woman named Tahm.  She asked what I needed this done, and I shared a bit of my cancer background and told her about being browless.  She shared the procedure process with me and then went over cost and care.  I told her  that with all the medical bills I just didn't think I could swing it now, but said If I were able to…

What do I think of bucket lists?

Well hello there my dear friends,
It has sure been a while since I have written a post, or filmed a Youtube video.  I believe the last time I uploaded was in May during a visit to the Chicago museum of art. That was one of the Most lovely times I have enjoyed with my whole family.  It was an amazing time, My daughter graduated from Uni. at Loyola in the morning, my son was here with his future wife visiting for the occasion.  So after the graduation we set forth and took on the city of Chicago, going to the Museum, walking in the park, enjoying the best food the city had to offer.  It was a blast.  An incredible memory and one of the few items I have on my bucket list.  Many people have ideas about travel or sky diving or even some thing simple like Disney.
Those have never been my bucket items.  From the  moment I found out I had  mets bc, I knew my bucket list would only have a few items.  Enduring ones non the less.
I wanted to see my daughter graduate from University.
I want to …
