Beneath me, still

Easy like....

I gave notice today. My boss said I would do this chemo and be back to work in dec. I said, yes ma'am.

I heard overheard once when I first met her. Talking about a particular employes reference to his job description. She said.... The job description is whatever I tell you to do. So. I will finish chemo and come back to work well. 

This is the best job I've ever had. Working or others, myself included. They've been good to me and it's been even better for me. When barb left, and I went through surgery, we became family. 

I love all these crazy broads. 

My daughter.... Is appropriately freaking out. 

I'm not. I am gonna be fine. It's temporary and I can always have my love whisk me off to the crowne plaza for a night. Heheh

I get an opportunity to rest and paint and figure out what I want to do w  the next 25 years....  And how I'm gonna do it to him! 

I stayed wbsamantha for 3 months while I was still hourly at Faye's. She was delightful and accommodating and tidy. We were very considerate of each  other and it was a lovely experience. That was 4?years ago. My! Time does fly!!

Moving on

Less than 90 days before the chemo is finished and I am whisked off to paradise with my babies in tow. Tow hell. They may be pushing a wheelchair. 

But I doubt it. And if so I don't care. 

I'm still decidedly me, infinitely cool, theunderously funny and.... Ever the archer! 

Work is winding down and I'm making plans to finish my chemo at Samantha's and paint. I've never finished things until paintings and I have no trouble knowing when I am done with them. 

I just want to dream and scheme, fly my kite and paint. I want to love my people and be happy. 

I'm incredibly happy w the job I've done w Faye and..... It's time to move on. 

I'll miss everything about this place. It's been a pleasure and I will never forget my time here.  

Change is hard. I'm sure this next phase will be challenging but I've so much love in my life, I'm prepared for battle. 

Let's do this!

Eating the beast

I picked up some chinese watercolors a while back. Tried them out. Kinda like this results 

Before the meds kick in. ...

Had my first chemo embolization this week. Jetsons operating room, pretty spiffy. They knocked me out and kept me wasted the rest of the day.

I felt ok for about 48 and the pain smacked me down. 

I'm taking the damn meds. Instant release so it shitsmacks pain. And you.
