Four months...

What life is like four months after chemo...

... had my first haircut yesterday. Just had the back trimmed up so that it wasn't longer than the top. That's not quite the look I'm going for. So the curls are gone for now, but they'll be back.
... had my first job interview today... maybe it will be my last for a while (that means it went well).
... potty training Tru finally, more on that later.
... made homemade peppermint patties with my friend yesterday. They are delicious.
... trying to figure out what life is going to be like after next week when Trent starts school.
... finally feel well enough to be getting some deep cleaning done around here which is much needed.
... looking forward to getting my port out Wednesday. That will be so nice.


Yes, I have a lot to be smiling about right now.

Looking good. I saw a girl in Costco today that had the best hair, it should be your next one. Imagine 3-5 inches on top, shorter around the sides, spikes....you could totally pull it off. :D What are you doing tomorrow?? Let's talk.

You are so beautiful! Good Luck with having Trent in school. It's tough but it will be so worth it when it's over! Keep smiling!

I looked over at church and I love your hair. I think you should keep it short for awhile. Anyways - Good luck with the job. This will be a crazy year - different than last year but maybe not any easier in that new challenges will arise. I know you can do it though. You are tough. Let us help.
