You guys and gals all crack me up!

Today, I'm the one feeling whacked - but at least I made it out of bed and to work by 8:30 today as opposed to yesterday when I slept straight through till NOON! Didn't even hear the phone ring with the "Hey Chris, are you ok?" call.

I imagine it will take a little while to figure out what's doable in terms of my work schedule. Last time I had taxol, I would get treated on Friday afternoon then just chill all weekend. Different story getting up and going to work the next day. Maybe the good news there is I can be dopey at work and fully ready to play on the weekends!

I've been VERY spoiled by all the years of relatively "easy" targeted therapy, been a while since I've been smacked down by a real chemo! Can't wait to drop the steroid dose, my face looks like a strawberry.

Steph, I'm with you - slap it down, get it back in a maintenance mode and definitely no more dragging anchor.

No Pink, Barry is not with me, but the "treatment room" which is really an old hospital room is quite dreary so next week I'm bringing in some decorations for myself. I'm thinking flamingos and palm trees. I have those things already, so need to do special shopping. I have to focus the shopping on some new hair as I think I'll be needing some in a couple of weeks.

Wish it was all as much fun as it sounds...but I guess ya can't cry and moan ALL the time.

Sheila, we gotta get you some potato balls. I think you're obsessing. Not that I blame you!
