Blood draw today, for a dental appt. tomorrow! Eeeks! Trying not to be too worried or concerned. My main thought is they scheduled me for two hours! I hope they can get alot done in a shorter amount of time! So the reason I say what a day, I went to the lab, then lunch with lil' miss Elizabeth, then laundry mat to wash towels, (dryer is taking a little longer then usual and I thought, It'll take FOREVER to dry those babies), then bank (girl scout deposit I've been putting off, but did it YAY!), then pick up Bill, check on Boys and Girls Club, then toWalmart to pick up new lipstick, home, installed new printer, co-helped with dinner, ate, finished installing printer, facebook, tried on new lipstick (very PINK) and now ready to call it a day. This has been my most productive day so far, I really hope I'm not too wore out tomorrow. Chemo again Monday and that's one I really am trying to only look at Monday and not past. My dad really uplifted me when he said, "Well the first one's the hardest, your body will know what to expect next time..." I'm keeping that one in mind. I also remember a friend of mine asking me, "well what's the worst that can happen?" "Has that ever happen to anyone?" "What can/ can't you do to prepare?" My answers are... the worst that can happen is I throw up all over the chemo room from being nervous, I'm sure it's happend before (somewhere at sometime) and I can prepare by reminding myself this isn't the first time. As far as next week goes, I can only remind myself I have done this before and I can do it again. I got through the last round by focusing on God, my Faith and letting Him work in me. Thinking back to my roughest days, in my darkest hours in bed or the bathroom I heard songs. Everything from Sunday school songs and hymns (How Great Tho Art) to modern day Christian music (My God) (Unto the Cross I cling). And scriptures all kinds of scriptures. Since my mom was blind she memorized scripture and had us memorize scripture. This is the best thing a parent could ever do for their child, take them to church to learn songs and scripture that will never pass away. I am a firm believer these songs and scriptures came from everyone praying for me. God took those prayers and gave me scripture and song. This I will hold onto going into this next week, but first. First it will get me through this dental appointment. And my scripture tonight??? "Be still and KNOW that I am God." Psalms 46:10 and "God did not give us the spirit of fear, but of power and love and of a SOUND MIND."
2 Timothy 1:7 Thank you Lord!
