Urdrago that is a wonderful cut!! I hope you don't take this the wrong way but did your hair look that good pre-chemo? Honestly--it's lovely.
I had a nice, relaxing weekend away after my last Herceptin but it's been a bit of a scramble since. Work has been busy, I've had several social engagements in the evenings, and I've tried to squeeze in some packing/laundry/shopping for our Costa Rica trip. We leave tomorrow!! I'm feeling a little out of my comfort zone--haven't traveled out of the country hardly at all the past decade or two, plus we *never* take beach vacations. I had to ask a friend for packing suggestions--how lame! Ennyhoo--I'll try to post a pic or two. Might not be gorgeous, sunny beach weather--I believe the pattern down there is afternoon thunderstorms most days, but that's when I plan to nap. ;-) Kinda looking forward to getting the travel part behind me--we fly to San Jose tomorrow, spend the night there, and then do a five-hour drive down to the coast. Be thinking of me late Sunday afternoon, when <hopefully> we've arrived and settled in.

urdrago, you look great!
In other news, I had my exchange/oophorectomy surgery on Wednesday and am still not myself. Was in a lot of pain, lymphedema flared up, and today one of my boobs is bright red and hurts a little. Not to mention that one of my drains keeps inflating and I have to constantly keep an eye on it. Called the doctor re my right boob, waiting for the answer. On the bright side, removal of the ovaries was a piece of cake. If it wasn’t for the three tiny incisions, I would’ve forgotten that something was removed down there.

InnaB. Sorry to hear all that. Hopefully you get to feeling better very soon. Wonder why your breast is so red?
I am constantly fighting that lymphedema. If I forget to wear a sleeve when I workout or clean at my part time job my arm will start to swell. If I don't use my machine faithfully at least 3 or 4 times a week, my arm swells. I'm just beginning to accept the fact that this is just going to be the way it is.

Update: the boob redness is not an infection, but a kind of delayed bruising reaction from my radiated skin. Sent pics to the doctor, discussed coming in, but ultimately decided against it. It’s a little better this morning, and traveling to the NYC on the weekends is just a plains suicide. If anything changes, will decide at that point. I feel a little better. Can move longer, take fewer pain meds, and the drain fluid is clear. I hate the drains!

InnaB. Thst is great news! Your right. Drains are the worst!!

Urdrago, your hair is gorgeous - l love it!
Ingerp, I hope you are settled and enjoying Costa Rica. Have a great time!
InnaB, so sorry that you aren't feeling so great, but I'm glad there is no infection. That was my first thought. Yeah, drains are a pain. This, too, shall pass - hang in there and feel better.
I had a wonderful birthday weekend on our cruise (except my daughter (also her birthday this weekend) caught a cold). The weather was perfect. We enjoyed a beach day on the cruise line's private island and a day in Nassau (been there, done that, stayed on board). Our ship was the one on the right, behind my hubby. Daughter was bummed because parasailing was cancelled (too windy). Mom was relieved not to have to go with her, lol. Short trip and then reality set back in when the alarm went off this morning...
Have a great week, ladies and gent!

Loving all the pictures. Urdrago your hair is spectacular! I especially love the color.
GAWarrior - Private island day is always my favorite on any cruise. Glad your trip was mostly successful.
InnaB - Continued good luck healing from your exchange surgery.
Ingerp - Can 't wait to hear all about your trip. Costa Rica has been on my bucket list. I agree with you. I don't mind tropical afternoon rains. I'm not a big sun person so afternoon rain is always a good excuse for a nap in the shade.
I finally got out for my first post exchange run and other than feeling really out of shape it went well. I hope to get back to running 3 or 4 times a week. Fingers crossed weather cooperates.
