Productive Thursday

White Agapanthus in Bloom

Woke up this morning to the sound of the cat throwing up.  :p

Later, went for my blood test.   The phlebotomist asked me how I was doing.  I told her tomorrow will be my last chemo, although, most probably they'll want another blood test next week, before my hydration session, as a follow-up.  After the blood test was done, she gave me a hug and said it has been a pleasure attending to me, that I was one of the nicest patients she's had.  :)  


After I came home, I had breakfast (toast with scrambled eggs and a slice of ham) and settled down to do some office work.  But I felt very tired and took a nap in the afternoon.

Roses

The nap helped and I was quite productive in the evening.  I ran a load of dishes in the dishwasher, stripped and remade daughter's bed with fresh sheets, did a load of laundry, watered the backgarden with the sprinklers, and vacuumed part of the house (the bedrooms, hallway, daughter's bathroom, and kitchen).  

June 9 Decluttering: 5 sweaters

Today's decluttering included 5 sweaters, including one that I hand-knitted.  And 5 books:

June 9 Decluttering: 5 books

These will all be put aside for donation to a thrift store.  This brings the total decluttered to 90 items.

Today, my neighbor brought over a tin of cookies for me!  I will take them to the clinic, tomorrow, and give them to the nurses and staff there.  I seem to have lost my taste for cookies and cakes and even chocolates (ate a piece of chocolate the other day and didn't like the taste, at all; how sad is that?)

There were phone calls from one of my half-brothers and an aunt.  The family segment of my balanced life is well plumped.

Later in the evening, I picked up daughter from the airport.  She will go with me to the clinic tomorrow for my last chemo session.

Today, I am grateful for:

- Being told I was a nice patient by the phlebotomist.
- Dancer seems fine after his morning incident.
- Afternoon naps.
- A phone call from my half-brother and an aunt.
- My neighbor bringing me a tin of cookies.

Spending log:  today, I spent $2 for parking at the lab.

How was your Thursday?
