While the kids and I were busy working our decorating magic, Hubby had the audacity to ask me "Is it possible for a tree to be over-decorated?".Ummm....I'm not sure whose house he's been living in for the last thirteen years, but in my world, there is no "over" anything when it comes to Christmas. I love everything sparkly and shiny and colorful. And lots of it!
Thankfully he loves me and humors me when it comes to this sort of thing. If it was up to him, he'd put out a two foot tall metallic artificial tree the day before Christmas and call it good. Luckily I have enough holiday spirit for both of us. :-)
On the cancer front, since we are in the middle of a deep freeze (seriously, it's about 15 degrees outside and everything is covered in ice), the cancer center was closed yesterday. That means I was unable to get my Neulasta shot. That is both good and bad. It's good because the Neulasta shot gives me pain all over. For days. So no shot means no pain so far. It's bad because without the Neulasta shot, my white blood cells don't get a boost so I can fight off infections. It's also bad because I still have to get the shot - on Monday - which means by Tuesday I'll probably be hurting from head to toe.
However, today I did a little bit of "decking the halls", a little bit of Christmas shopping (online) and we even braved the ice in Hubby's 4wd truck to have a meal out. Each day I feel decent is a victory, and I'll take that.
