Never Wake a Sleeping Bear

Aug9

He looks so soft and cuddly! I took the photo of him at one of the zoos. Not sure which one. But I was glad to snap a shot when he had his eyes open.

Still dealing with a sore throat. Tried pudding, but it’s too thick. Need to stick to clear cold liquids. Dropped my Popsicle. No!!! lol I’m a mess. Trying the icy Boost Breeze Orange, but began to feel nauseous, so got some medicine for that. I have applesauce, but I’m going to have my daughter bring me some of the grandkids’ applesauce packages. The applesauce is smoother. Maybe I can get that down.

I have to have blood and platelets today, which means my blood counts aren’t going up. *sigh*

I want to fast-forward my life right now. They always say not to want to do that, enjoy the moment of each and every day. But right now, that’s impossible. So if I could fast forward to where I began to build up my counts–they said I would feel better then, I would do it in a heartbeat. 🙂

Hope you have a fun day that you don’t want to fast forward.

Meerkat Standing Guard

Jul27

Cute little meerkat standing guard at one of the zoos I’ve visited. 🙂

I feel shaky and weak because I’ve hardly been keeping any food down. I’ve asked for anti-nausea medicine, but it’s still not here. I’m still on chemo for another couple of hours, then have a 2-day rest from it, but the stem cell transplant will cause just as much nausea, I’ve been warned. Ugh.

I did manage to get 52K on Wolf Heir somehow yesterday.

I wish I could fast forward to a couple of weeks from now when I’m feeling better, or however long I need to take.

Hope you have the coolest day ever!

Canoes Waiting to be Paddled

Jul24

This was the fun times in New Hampshire at a lake last year.

Not so fun times now. I had chemo all day yesterday and then all through the night last night. Same thing for tonight through Sunday night. Ugh. Just vomited breakfast. I haven’t felt like having lunch.

I’ve been exhausted and nauseous all day.

Hope you’re having a super fun day!

Whimsical Lavender Dragon

Jul12

I love all shades of purple! This little dragon is well cloaked in drapes of lavender flowers to keep him safe. Wouldn’t you love to cuddle him?

I’m working on Wolf Heir still. I’m getting 1,000 words a day, so that’s good. I’m just doing edits, so it takes longer to show word count progress.

They moved up my chest CT scan to Monday to check out my lungs to see how the pneumonia is going. Hopefully, it’s getting better and not stationary. Or growing. It could be they moved it up because they got some more of the bone marrow biopsy results back. Which means one of two things. The biopsy looks good and they want to see if the pneumonia is cleared up enough to start me on chemo again so I can get the transplant, OR the bone marrow results are worrisome, and they need to get me back on chemo so that they can keep it in check.

I’m sure that it’s good news. I choose to believe it is good news. I will know for sure when I have another doctor’s appointment. Mine has gone on vacation, so someone else will be seeing me. I probably won’t have another appointment though until the CT scan results are back.

I’m off to write! Hope you’re having a fantastic day!

Pot-bellied Pig

Jul11

I took the photo of the pig in Okinawa. Here is the original.

I managed to write 1165 words yesterday. I wanted to reach 43K, but I’m 165 words short. I’m shooting for 44K today. Just doing my blog post, and the IV antibiotic, and off I’ll go.

Hope you’re having a wonderful day!

Purple Magic Crepe Myrtle

Jul8

I love purple flowers so when I found crepe myrtles in purple, I had to get them. Four of them. They are miniatures so they only get to about 4-6 feet tall, whereas the others can get to around 20-40 feet tall.

I’m coughing up a storm this morning, which means I still have pneumonia, but I was excited to write 800 words on Wolf Heir last night. It’s not my usual 2,000, but it’s a start since I haven’t been able to write anything. I wrote 300 words before this.

I’m trying to reach 40,000 today, which is only 400 words. So maybe I can add 1400 today!

Have a terrific day!

Red Crepe Myrtle in Bloom

Jul7

My red crepe myrtle in bloom! It’s always the latest to bloom, and didn’t notice until I got home from the hospital and realized it was finally fully flowering!

Hope your day is sunny and great!

Black Cat Wannabe Black Jaguar

Jun14

I took the photo of the neighbor’s cat in my yard and then artified it with a jungle setting.

I haven’t felt like doing photo art in a long time, so I’m glad to be doing some more of it.

I also was working on typing up notes I had written in the hospital for The Chosen Fae back in March but never had time to type them up. So I now have 6,000+ words on that book. Woohoo!

I ran to the grocery store to get some things I needed and gas for trips to Houston.

We’re expecting more rain this afternoon. I wanted to walk, but it’s already too hot and muggy.

Hope you have a really cool day!!! Happy caturday!

A Bee on Zinnia

Jun13

The bee was so busy, he didn’t budge even though I was right on top of him, taking the photo. 🙂

They keep saying we need to walk and engage in various exercises so that we can heal faster. But it’s hard when you have no energy. However, I walked this morning. The rains had cooled it down a bit, and yesterday it rained all day, so I couldn’t walk. But I got to see the green heron again. I tried taking a couple of pictures of him from a distance with my phone. I hope one turns out.

Additionally, I captured the moon’s reflection in the pond and took pictures of mushrooms that had appeared due to the rain, making the walk an amazing adventure.

Hope your day goes great!!!

Reflections

Jun8

I love taking images and making reflections in water!

I’m off to get some protein drinks for my very bad, awful, terrible, horrible day on Tuesday. 🙂 I’m starting chemo again today at the rate of 400 mg, that made me so sick when I first went into the hospital at the end of February. I’m hoping it won’t be as bad this time, but I don’t really have much faith that it won’t.

Have a great one!
