last night i went to a support group for bc survivors. i was the only one there that was still in chemo, but there were a couple of other woman that have finished chemo and are getting radiation, and then a few that are "on the other side". it was nice to talk to other people with the same issues. i look forward to talking to them again next month when i'll be closer to making surgery decisions. the best thing is that i finally met someone else who is triple negative :) it's good to not be the only one! and she's big into research, and has found some vaccine trials going on. i don't know much about it, but will be very interested to read about what's coming up for us!
today i woke up feeling like a real person :) it was wonderful. i called missy and we took the kiddos to the park- yes- i took the girls to the park! symma wanted me to take them on the bike, but i told her that was still way out of my league. so we drove, but we played, and climbed, and rode the slides, and had a blast. yay!! then misty met us at the park, and we went to noodles for lunch and ate *outside*!! i'm so glad that the stars aligned, and i felt healthy on a *nice* day! i've been on spring break all week, and this is the first "fun" day i've had. oh well, there's always next year! and i did get to go to julie's for a playdate yesterday which was awesome, so it certainly hasn't been all bad.
here's the question of the day- last night, all the ladies at the support group have dumped *all* of their plastic containers/plates/cups/etc... thoughts? comments? suggestions? i'm thinking about buying stock in pyrex containers and dumping all of the plastic... but what shall i do about sippy cups? i can't see izzy using a glass, yet...
here's to another good day in the neighborhood tomorrow :)

Glad you had a great day today! Sounds like it was a busy one! I also know someone who has triple negative cancer if you would like another person to talk to, let me know. I hope you have a great day tomorrow too!
So glad that you got to have a great sunnysideup day:)Karl and i have not rid of all our plactic, but have gotten ride of alot.We do not micro anything plastic or put it in the dishwasher.The kids are old enought to use mostly glass except outside.We debate ridding all of ours also.Hard with lunch's esp Kade's.
Mer-so glad you are doing well! I am one of those people that ditched the plastic in the kitchen for Pyrex. I've also switched to BPA free water bottles. I was at Dick's today and I found a BPA sippie cup for Izzy. Now, we just have to figure out how to get it to you. I'll send you an email.
