OK, so I've made it through this "bear of a week," and now I can get back to regular living (is there such a thing?) ...
Let's see, Sunday was a get-together with childhood girlfriends (we missed you Kathy!); then Wednesday we moved Dylan into his out-of-town college dorm; then Friday was Hannah's 21st birthday, and she insisted on having her celebration at a bar (but it was a cool/fun/crowded bar, so at least she has good taste!). Hannah shows off her birthday outfit in photo at right.
So we reserved some tables on the patio outside, and it was a beautiful night, but I think we adults were outnumbered by "twenty-somethings" by about 5 to 1! But she (and her parents) lived through it, in spite of EVERYONE wanting to "buy her a shot," sheesh, so I feel like I can finally relax, now that it's over ...
Speaking of Hannah, she had her first follow-up scan since her surgery and everything is A-OK in the brain department (it probably helped that her scan was BEFORE her party!) So, thank God and hooray!
And, re: Dylan's big move to college, he showed up back at home THREE DAYS after moving into his dorm! It seems his girlfriend (who has a car at her school, which is right next to Dyl's school but is starting its classes a little later) came home this weekend, so, of course, Dylan rode along! But I had just baked some peanut-butter cookies (his favorite), so he came home to freshly-baked cookies and surprised us!
Ah well, he's gone back now ... Both kids' classes start tomorrow -- yay! -- so things should settle down. Should ...
Re: me, I've STILL got the numb fingers and toes, but it's OK, I'm feeling pretty good otherwise and don't miss chemo -- or "Fanny" -- at all!
Thanks for checking on me!
Until next time ...

After such a week, go to sleep now and dream sweet dreams (of course, you never remember your dreams, but go to sleep anyway -- you need it!)
Zzzzzzzz ...
Happy Birthday, Hannah!! Looks like you had a good time. Glad to hear your scan was clear.
As for you Paula, you look great! No one would never know that you had been through so much in the past year. Very glad that life is getting back to normal for you.
Still waiting for photos.
