have had a joyful 2 day visit from a girlfriend. Amazing how much better my appetite can be in a good restaurant!
Went to my hairdresser yesterday certain that I would need my head shaved. He said there was hope still and gave me a VERY short pixie cut. I saw a few people I know who actually complimented me on it!!Bald spots and all! lol
But the most joyful was when my friend and I lay on the back patio looking at the stars in the desert night sky and just talking about life......
