Weekend Recap

We were supposed to have Monique's recipe/bridal shower this past Saturday but we had to cancel because of the weather! :( We had something like 8 inches of heavy, wet snow and all the roads in and out of town were closed for most of the day. After watching one person after the other get stuck IN town, we figured it was safer for the few of us in town to just STAY HOME!!!

So, that was a bummer. I don't know yet if we're rescheduling or what the deal will be. It just kind of depends on everyone's schedules!

One plus about the weekend was that I got a lot of sleep in! I wasn't feeling the best most of the weekend, though, so that was kind of a bummer. I'm not sure if I was feeling yucky because of lack of sleep or if it was other factors, but I was glad that I COULD sleep so much. By the end of the weekend, I was feeling much better.

So, guess what today is? The start of the dreaded cancer testing diet. Blech. But, I decided to just wait and start TOMORROW!! :o) Why? Well, I had some milk to drink up first and some leftovers from the weekend and I just didn't want to throw it out! With the way the economy is, it's not smart to just toss out food!! Okay, okay...the reality is that I didn't WANT to start the diet today, so I decided not to. Grrr...

Tomorrow, though. I'll start it tomorrow. Then, on May 10, I'll begin my week of testing. I'll receive some shots on Monday & Tuesday to superficially elevate my thyroid levels, Wednesday I'll take "the pill" (contains radioactive iodine for the scans), Thursday I'll get some bloodwork drawn and cross my fingers for good results as we wait for news of the "perfect" number, and Friday is the full body scan. Then, I'm done. Not so bad, huh? But that doesn't mean that I want to start this dumb diet. So, I'll just enjoy today and worry about the rest in the morning. :)
