Woke up at 2:35am. Tried to get back to sleep again but my luck was gone. Sprayed my legs with magnesium to help them but sleep still wouldn’t arrive, So, I listened to podcast after podcast, in the dark with my headphones in. Gave up at 8am and got up. I have huge bags under my eyes, but I can’t do much about that.
Went out to breakfast with Jo, Faye, Kim, Andrea and Nicky. It seemed weird to hear them talking about getting ready for work again. I wish I was too. I’m a quarter of the way through so only 18 more weeks of chemo to go. It seems like a long time, and yet the past 6 weeks have just flown by.
I miss my old life. I miss not being able to do all the stuff I usually do. But this is just a small blip in my life. I need to get my knitting needles or crochet hooks out and start making something. I’ll make it productive, so I have things to look at and know I did something useful and not just keep binge-watching great tv shows! I’m watching The Lincoln Lawyer today; at the start of the week, I watched the first season of Wednesday. Once I start watching, I can’t stop. It’s affecting my step count!
I’m hoping to get a better night’s sleep tonight. Fingers crossed.
