Day two

I went back to school. I confused many people when I went back on a Tuesday. I had my chemo lite and PT on Monday, so I couldn't come back until Tuesday. Now I'm all confused about what day it is. And on top of it, I have a different schedule this year. I made the new schedule on what school I'm at which day, I still need to learn my new schedule. Yikes!
I took a picture of my first day of school. I had seen everyone's pictures when they started back to school. I was finally able to also post my back to school picture. 

It was so nice to get back to a routine and go back to doing what I love to do. 
                      

And there was cake. The good Costco cake. Chocolate cake. It was really yummy. 
Everyone at my school wore pink or purple in support of me. I was honored that they would do that. I work with some of the best people. 

Everyone told me to take it easy and to make sure I don't over do. 
I did listen to my body and make sure I didn't overdo it. I was so excited to teach. I was worried I had forgotten how to teach. I haven't taught since the end of March. That's a long time. 

Poor Jovi, it was a long day for her. I made sure she had a special treat for her first day back in the school routine. I also gave her a special treat for her second day back in the routine. 

Then I had to leave her to go to the condo meeting. We only meet once a year and I felt good so I went to the meeting. They usually don't last long and I do like my neighbors. I also made sure  I was ready to go for the next day. 

I did have to search for my lunch box. It was in the cupboard under another bag. Having lunch with the amazing people I work with was great!

I made it through my second day also. I was at my other school and it was great to see everyone there. They also wore pink and purple in support. Have a already said I work with some amazing people? I got to see the students and it was wonderful. 

As you can see, I'm getting my hair back. I'm still wearing a cap because my head it cold. I don't know how bald guys do it in the winter. I might wear a cap the whole winter. My hair is more salt and pepper rather than auburn and curly. I really thought if I kept saying auburn and curly it would be auburn and curly. At least I tried. 

Today I took Jovi for a ride in the car. She was so excited to see me today and I wanted to do something special for her. We went to go get air in my tires and gas. Not sure if that is where she wanted to go, but that is where I needed to go. 

Tomorrow I get to see my awesome LMS peeps. I'm looking forward to seeing them and catching up. 

I'm not done with everything yet. I still have radiation. That starts on Tuesday. And is daily for five weeks. The first one is longer. I'm praying all is good with my appointments. I know God has this and will be with me when I'm getting radiation. He was with me during chemo and my surgery. 

I have two more days this week that I'm going to enjoy and I love being able to get back to what I love doing. Don't get me wrong. I will miss snuggling with the Jov during the day and working on my quilts while watching Bar Rescue. I'll also miss going to Target or Meijer at 10am and not having to fight the crowds. 

I am blessed to be able to go back to work. 

I am blessed!!
