Last Friday we had a special event at church that I volunteer for. A Night to Remember is prom for those with special needs. It’s always a fun night. I helped with flowers. I love to see the pure joy on those students’ faces. I’ve come to realize that during my recovery, anything “extra” requires a bit more rest for my body. So later today a much needed nap will be enjoyed.
Right Now:
Student ministry this morning. Nap this afternoon. That post-church nap always hits just right.
This Week:
On my mind this week is my MRI and CT scan. My feeling is that the pulmonary embolism is not fully resolved. I still get very winded sometimes. As for the MRI, I pray that the two tumors that were discovered later are just no more (poof, gone) or that they haven’t grown at all.
My three days in the office have been going okay. I am admittedly wiped out after day 3 but I’m getting through it. My hair though… almost totally gone. I did buy a wig but I haven’t tried it yet. It just feels like a lot of hair! Not sure my scalp will tolerate it.
Reading:
I am reading Census by Jesse Ball. I chose it for book club. It’s very different. I like it so far. It’s slightly dystopian/sci-fi. Catches me off guard sometimes. It makes you think.
Grateful for:
McDonald’s sweet tea. Ever since my brain surgery I’ve not been able to drink coffee or even have it around me. The smell!!! I used to love coffee so much but on my office days I’ve been enjoying sweet tea instead.
