The Ladies

Good day/Bad day?: Mixed--it's chemo day

Last night was...Date Night! (Thanks for the sitting, Gene, Kate and Myra!) It's been a long time for just Ben & me to go out as adults, maybe since we went to Chicago. For the Madison locals, we went to Graze and would go back in a heartbeat! Good food, local food, not too complicated, lots of comfort food, beer $4/pint--yum. We are so lucky to have so many good choices around.

Today, chemo in the AM, then boob shopping (yes, I wore them home), then great lunch with Julie, and now I'm bracing myself to watch the In the Family documentary--bracing, because I was about 2 min in with tears streaming down my face. This is going to be hard but good. Then I'll nap. I've had a few "green" waves so far...

FYI, I'm very pleased with my boob choice, but not sure if/when to wear them. It's funny how quickly you get used to a new normal, and I've become accustomed to the totally flat world and have an appreciation for it. I just don't know how I'll know if it'll be a boob day or flat day...it'll only come with experimentation, I guess! Oh yeah, and the swimsuit--okay, but not in love. I'm waiting and I may keep looking.

Wade-Becker team, thanks for facilitating a date night for our son and DIL and watching our granddaughter for their dinner... usually, dates aren't desireable immediately post chemo when we're there on weekends, but we sure loved giving the overnight and days when they went to Chicago before all of this started.

Jenny, so many fashion choices--I know some fairly flat chested women who do the same choices depending on the occasion--make some eyes pop--you are beautiful w/ or w/o--Ben said so! MIL
