Spent the day getting new clothes for Jeremiah and introducing him to his namesake and other friends. I am beyond exhausted and have slept for most of the evening....Pete and Jeremiah were worn out too and have been sleeping also.

I am tickled to tell you that they have a children's consignment shop in the town where my husband works. I've been collecting clothes for a baby for some time now but there are many that won't work due to size for JT...so I took them in to the shop. I was able to get him a complete wardrobe for this season and with my trade in clothes, I spent less than $3.00!!!! EXCELLENT!!!!

On the chemo end, the aftermath has begun with the metal yick mouth. My bones are doing ok....even though I was on my feet ALL DAY! So far, no aches at all, just tired.

Susan,

   Funny you should use the analogy of the stuff they tell you on planes....take care of the mommy first, then the child as I was thinking about that just today too.
    I know I will need some help in the upcoming days and am going to have to ask someone to come over and help. I am aiming to keep the pain at bay until at least Friday afternoon. The Laurel Festival is coming up and I desparately want to attend the craft fair on Friday morning with Jeremiah in tow. Usually there are several old friends floating about that event to run into, chat with, etc....it's part of the fun and given this year, I am anxious to see old friends and catch up.
    Anyway, yes...I will need the pain meds that knock me into space and I am going to have to allow someone in the house to help keep an eye on our beautiful boy (even though he currently sleeps a great deal of time....normal for his age). I don't want to risk being asleep when he is up and I may not hear him.
    Good news for the day...my hair is growing and no more meds to slow that process down!! I wonder what color it's going to be...right now it looks to be extremely light blonde, possibly white!!

Going to bed. Love to you all. I'm one day closer to full flight!
