Another great week... but anxious

Another great week... felt good, felt normal actually... at least physically. The mental game is still a little cra cra... most minutes I'm good, then in an instant whoa - the tears! And they can happen for no reason at all, but at least they're happening less often. Besides those little outbursts I kept up my water chugging, my walking and everything else I'm supposed to be doing.
So many fun, amazing, surprises this week...
the most beautiful Athena ancient gold coin necklace, thank you amb
the softest blankie, beautiful pointsettia and yummiest treats from dear friends
morning Christmas Carols from some awesome neighborhood ladies
a fun work-hat-party-meeting, and I got the coolest elf hat ever
an amazing care package from the sweetest elves in NorCal
delicious ice cream delivery, from an amazing friend
(thanks to my eagle-eye neighbor who rescued the pkg from 2 doors down)
and yes, Baby Yoda is now my little 'buddy', thanks neighbor!
The cards, phone calls, facetimes, texts, emails, messages... you have no idea how much they all mean to me. I said it before, and I will say it again... I'm so blessed by the outreach of love, support and encouragement. I read every message and I take your words to heart.
Which leades me to tonight...
... to say I'm a bit anxious is an understatement. I tried to keep busy all day attempting to avoid thinking about tomorrow. I cleaned, organized, made pumpkin bread (it's really yummy), went internet shopping (legit stuff of course, lol), went for a walk, then made Christmas cookies tonight... and it all helped. But then I had to sit myself down and review so that I'm prepared ~ even though I know what to expect tomorrow, it's still a bit scary. But, I'm now thinking it will go well, why wouldn't it?
I am Greek ~ I come from a family of strength ~ and I am now a warrior... I've got this!



Hope all goes well today. Thinking of you, Suzanne.
Hopping in your pocket right now and we’ve been thinking of you everyday! I’ve been thinking, if you’re really lucky, you have that “one friend,” the one who no matter what you ask of them, what crazy adventure you want to embark on, they’re game, and you are, for sure, that friend! You want to sleep in the gutter and watch the Rose Parade? Sure! You want to go get the girls belly buttons pierced? Sure! You want to pet wolves? Sure! You want to go to an unknown place in Costa Rica? Sure! You want to jump off a cliff? Sure! (Left you hanging on that one) Can you pick me up from Long Beach airport? Sure! No matter…
I think your dog may be a little jealous of your new Yoda buddy lol.
I will be thinking of you today and will wait anxiously for your update. You’ve got this Suzanne... it will be one more step closer to being “C” free. XOXO💔💔
