Tired As a Mother
I am not going to write much today because I’m not feeling the best. I’m tired, groggy, and I think I have brain fog — never experienced it before, but I think that’s what I’m feeling. I think the past couple of weeks have caught up to me. I pushed through moving my daughter in and through my mom and sister’s visit after that, and now I am sooooo tired. My body was so tired yesterday that I just gave in and listened to it and laid on the couch last evening, falling in and out of sleep. I didn’t sleep too well last night and woke up with a headache and just a funky feeling. My body feels really tired. So, the only thing I can think of that is happening is that my body needs to catch up on some rest. I am at chemo feeling tired and nauseated, which has never happened at this point in my cycle, so I am just going to take it easy and rest while I refuel. I have a seat by the window and a blanket on, so I am very warm and cozy with the sun shining in on me. Not much going on other than needing some rest. I am getting anxious for a scan. I just want to be able to relax and not worry for the next few months. My husband I were talking last night about how we really hope this next scan will be a good one so that we can enjoy a few months without worry as empty nesters. I meet with my oncologist in a couple of weeks, and we’ll get a scan set up. I’m anxious for it since it’s been six months since my last one. I am tired, so I will keep this short today. Will update again from chemo in two weeks or my doctor appt., whichever happens first. Stay safe and healthy, everyone!
