10 Things

TV Adds 10 Pounds

Well, I was stressed last night when I got home from work because I’d taken a ½ day PTO to get medical stuff done yesterday and had SO much left to do by the end of the day. One of the extra spec...

Work and Smirk

Wednesday already? I can tell you what started out as me thinking this was going to be a quiet, easy week at work - a sort of “in-school suspension” as [Elaine Benes]’s friend calls it, has turne...

Holidaze

The days and weeks seem to fly by now. Now that I’m not counting my days and weeks by my chemotherapy treatments I seem to lose track of the days more and more. I used to go by my nausea waves an...

NJM29: Target-obsessed

Hahah. My previous entry is so funny. It sounds like all I want to do is shop at Target, drink Starbucks and hang out at home with my dog. If truth be told, that’s pretty much it right now. I D...
