It is another beautiful hot day. We slept in until 8 ish today. That was needed since Ken was up at 5 each morning last week. I did not get up with him and sometimes didn't know he was gone until it was light out. We went out to eat, went to the farmer's market, and went to about 3 places trying to find a compression sleeve. Good breakfast, corn on the cob, and check the internet were the results of our wanderings.
Last night we went to Red Lobster for dinner (thanks Kayla & Steve) and then to a mixer at Knuckles for Ken's class reunion. It was a very good turn out, which meant it was packed and hot. Ken saw lots of people he had lost contact with. I got a drink then tried to find a cool place to sit. I knew a few people and enjoyed talking and catching up.
I have been pondering the information I got on Thursday. I am furious that the treatment to save me from cancer took away my lymph nodes and now I have to deal with lymphadema the rest of my life. That daily I have to change what I do and have a reminder that I am different. Pity party! Enough time spent on that! Then I decided to make a choice. The choice is I do have the rest of my life to make small changes in how much I choose to lift and carry, wearing a compression sleeve, exercising, and eating healthy. It is what it is. Just Deal!
