Got Some Quality Sleep

Last night I couldn't stay up past 8:15 pm so off to bed I went. I was out about 15 minutes later and woke up about 4:00 am. That was wonderful. I blogged for an hour or so and fell asleep again for a couple of hours. Thank goodness. I really needed some quality sleep after the awful previous couple of nights.

This morning my husband asked if I felt better with the reduced chemo dosage and really I'm not sure. Some cycles are better than others and I've been on chemo so long that I can't really be objective right now. I'll bring it up again during or after the weekend when I should be feeling more of the effects.

Mentally I'm still feeling clear minded and generally pretty good. Coffee still tastes pretty good and so did my oatmeal this morning.

I think that will be all for now ...
