Time for a long overdue update. My 9 days off of treatment went really well and towards the end of the off time I felt almost normal. Last Saturday we went to my parents house to do some yard work. I got tired easy, especially when I was in the sun, but I paced myself and took breaks when needed. We only spent about 2 1/2 hours working, went home, got cleaned up, then went shopping. I think it did me a lot of good to get out and actually do something that required some effort.

My second round of chemo started Monday and went well. I went in to work afterwards like normal, and felt great. There was a mix up on my oral chemo drug, Revlimid, so I won't start it until Thursday. I'm feeling really good right now, so maybe it's been the Revlimid that causes me to feel "fuzzy" sometimes. My longer treatment session is tomorrow, so we'll see how I feel after that. I'm just enjoying being "normal" while I can!
