[cancer] Sometimes you win small, in big ways
Yesterday was the best day I’ve had in weeks. Woke up from a solid night’s sleep. Very productive at the Day Jobbe. Got in a bit of emergency parenting. Managed two hours and a bit more of writing related program activities. It’s not new wordage, but it counts. Some continued GI distress, and my usual fatigue patterns, but that’s pretty much the new normal. And I sold a story to tor.com.
So, yeah, good day.
Of course, that meant a ragged night’s sleep last night. Woke up at 2:45 am with a headache. Gave up on trying to sleep at 3:30 am. Today will not be quite so swell.
However, today will be substantially improved as eight nine of twelve. [ETA: Ah, chemo brain.]
There is a potential wrinkle in the wind, as mononucleosis may be going around
If it ain’t one damned thing it’s another. And so on and so on, scoobie doobie doo.
