Merry Christmas !!!!!

FRIDAY DECEMBER 19TH 2014 @ 9:15am: dropped munchie off at daycare and I'm relaxing on the couch with a Starbucks and watching a Christmas Movie

HOW I FEEL: wishing this cold would go away, it's been almost 2 weeks and I think it's overstayed it's welcome lol ACTUALLY it never was welcomed haha

I just realized I haven't updated my blog since Alyssa's birthday; that's over a month ago.  I'm horrible at keeping it up to date, I always say I promise I will get better at this but it hasn't happened yet.  Maybe in the New Year ????

I can't believe Christmas is NEXT WEEK .... it doesn't feel like Christmas at all; maybe that's because our weather has been so bizarre the last few weeks and we don't have any snow.  

I've been doing a lot of thinking the last few days about where I was last year and how far I have come.  This is a special Christmas for me because I get to be home with my family and Christmas morning I can wake up with my munchie.  I am very thankful for having this 2nd chance at life and being able to be home for Christmas because let me tell you --- Christmas in the hospital is VERY depressing and lonely.  My family was great last year at having Christmas up at the hospital but it just wasn't the same.  Everyone thought I was crazy because the Christmas decorations came out first week of November and the tree was up and presents bought and wrapped and under the tree.  I am totally on the ball with everything Christmas related this year and it feels GOOD!!!  Everyone who knows me knows that I'm pretty particular about my tree and the placement of the decorations LOL .... the kids have there tree and I have mine that NOONE touches lol.  This year my mom helped me decorate and put it up or else it would've been a difficult task without her help.  



Soooo it's official I will be returning to work January 7th :):)  I met with my work last week to discuss arrangements and I left that meeting feeling very excited.  It's crazy to think I've been off work for 2 years, hard to believe sometimes.  I go back looking forward to it but also feel alittle nervous and anxious.  All good feelings of course but it's been 2 years and A LOT has changed at my work.  I should clarify --- things have changed in a good way but I am sure there will be things I need to be retrained on but then part of me feels like after a week or two I will get right back into the swing of things.  I will be returning 3 days a week and 2 hours a day to start.  Doesn't seem like a lot but I'm sure in a month or so I will be increasing those hours.  I will be continuing to do my physio 3 times a week for the month of January.  I like to think I'm a good planner and organizer so I will be able to juggle returning to work, physio, doctors appointments, household chores and being the best mommy I can for my munchie. 




I hope everyone has a Safe and Fabulous Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!!  :)

YACC Retreat and Munchie's Birthday :):)

MONDAY NOVEMBER 24TH 2014 @ 3:00pm: relaxing and going to pick Alyssa up from daycare shortly HOW   I   FEEL : tired I've been sitting here for the last half an hour or so staring at this computer screen trying to decide where to start with this blog post.  I have so much I want to share just unsure where to start.  I guess I'll start here ---- 7 days ago I got the privilege of attending the Young Adults with Cancer Retreat in Cobourg.  Dan and I got to spend 5 days there with a group of 35 AMAZING people.  I was a little unsure of what to expect going to this but after speaking with people who had attended prior retreats and told me it changed their lives completely, I knew I had to go and see it for myself.  The first day I found really intense; we sat in a circle all 35 of us and gave a brief introduction of ourselves and our journey.  I remember that night when I went to bed I thought to myself ‘holy shit, th...

I'm BAACCCKKKKK ..... Update on last month or so

I know I know I know ..... I'm horrible at this whole blogging thing, but I spent sometime looking at this website 'BLOGGER' and figuring out all the features it has and I've added an app on my phone so now I can blog from anywhere.  My promise to myself and everyone else is that I am going to update it as regularly as possible even if it's just a quick post to share exciting news or an accomplishment or whatever.  As I was looking through all the features I came across all my followers and from what country they are from.  I was absolutely shocked to see that people from ALL OVER the world have been following my blog.  It makes me feel pretty good and I hope that some of those followers are people going through similar situations and hopefully my blog helps them get through the tough and crappy times.  I'm no Kris Carr or anything and I'm not exactly the most positive person right now, but I try to be as honest as I can in my blog and share my accomplishme...
