Today, I head back to work for 3 whole days! Wow! Can I do this? Three days....three evenings of productivity.....I'm not sure. What I do know, is that I will try. What remains to be seen is which one of these seven iconic little characters will be my physical manifestation today.
Will I be?
Happy: For sure, I've missed my friends at FedEx and I've missed feeling like I'm part of something other than my diagnosis.
Doc: I guess I have to take on a portion of this personnae....everything I do now is pretty much health centered.
Dopey: I really hope not, I'm currently not on any mind altering medications that might make this a possibility.....but.....
Sleepy: Is almost a given since lately I've been early to bed because Sawyer likes to wake up at 4:00 am.
Sneezy: Will also show up to the party....there's something about that fine dust that comes filtering in from the dock floor that makes everyone there have at least 1 pretty epic sneezing fit per evening.
Bashful: Has never been my companion and it's a danged good thing because I'm showing up tonight much altered in appearance. It simply IS what it IS.
BUT..........
Please and thank you may I leave Grumpy at home? I'd like people to be as glad to see me as I will be to see them. I have much to be truly Happy about today. My feet are working....I have things to cover my bald little head....my rash is almost gone and I'm feeling pretty good right now. Maybe I can throw an 8th little worker into the mix here and call him Hopeful....I am hopeful that when Thursday rolls around for my 2nd treatment, things will be better and the side effects will be easier. At least I do have a better vision of what can happen and I'm hopeful I will be much better prepared for them.
Today is the end of June.....there is a big holiday arriving soon, the birth of our great nation. Regardless of who you support in politics and government.....please just love our country. No where else on earth can you have the freedoms you have here. These were hard fought for and won with the blood of patriots who would rather die than subject themselves to tyranny. And, more importantly....we do have a King.....He is the sovereign of our lives. Give thanks to God that you are alive, well, happy, free and able to worship as you choose.
And remember...........
