silence is golden

I've not got much to report since my last post. I am feeling OK. Well, pretty good relatively speaking. I am still tired and REALLY achy. The joint pain hasn't subsided, and I'm thinking perhaps a call to the oncologist might be in order soon. It seems as though it's gotten worse and I'm hoping it will wear off soon. It's so bad that even getting up from eating dinner is hard - you can practically hear my joints creaking. Oy.

I have been busy. This past weekend was one of the best I've had since before all of this shit descended upon us. Tot Shabbat dinner at Talia's school on Friday, a new dance class for Talia Saturday morning, lots of work on the house and dinner with my family on Saturday. Yesterday we went to a super bowl baby shower and it felt nice to be social (so what if I spent a lot of the time in the kids tree house).

I am getting my sea legs back in terms of being with the girls. I am doing more with both of them on my own and it's getting easier. They both seem so happy to have time with just me. It's literally been 6 months of me not being able to handle both of them on my own so having dinner tonight just the three of us was such a treat. They behaved wonderfully and we ended up having a macarena dance party in the living room after dinner (one of the songs/dances Talia learned this past weekend).

I plan to take full advantage of the rest of this week and get as much fun stuff under my belt before next Tuesday gets here. And then I know it's really only 2-3 weeks of feeling like shit. I am quite certain I can handle that.
