the weekend comes and goes - as promised, good food, good film, good friends ... and now, back to reality!
jane is feeling well; really herself in a sense - now we 'wait' for the untimely demise of her hair - which we are all slightly terrified by ... not so much how she will look (she'll look great as always), but more the unknown sense of where and when this event shall come to pass. we expect this to take place sometime around this coming weekend, but we don't know for certain, and jane and i are both feeling as if her entire hair will eject suddenly in a restaurant, or at work, or at the movies - uggh! i will be away snowboarding on friday through saturday afternoon (the 'dad' annual ski trip), and i'm dreading not being around for jane when she needs me.
this too shall come to pass. everyone and everything feels much calmer as the week begins, we seem to be more organized and together, everyone happy and into the routine. the weekend definitely helps, and makes us realize that if we don't somehow stay the course, see friends, go out, and enjoy, the rest of the week tends to fall apart.
andi has been wearing shredded jeans for the past month, i finally sneak in a moment to take him out for dinner and a quick shopping spree, so he doesn't look as if he's up for a starring role in oliver twist. oh, the neglect! jane is not home until 9:45 or so; it seems like the perfect opportunity.
tonight jane is attending a program at her hospital called look good feel better. it's for women undergoing cancer treatment, and it offers them different ways to deal with the physical and emotional changes brought on by this disease (and the ensuing solutions). it seems like a great idea - help take care of the 'outside' to mitigate the effects on the 'inside'. hoping it delivers ...
think i'll have that glass of wine now!
