Today I took a trip to the Home Depot in Longmont CO. Purchased a spool of pre-wound cord for the weed whacker and it turned out to be a double feed instead of the single feed needed. So the trip was more for a return and purchase the correct item. It was nice to be back to see a few people. Learned that one person got fed up with the job and is no longer working there. How other people have been stepped up to help the Service Desk.... aka Special Services. In the middle of it all, I could feel my body starting to shake. It was nice to be able to go and leave, even though I did have the instinct to pick up the phone and help with some phone calls.
Left the house today with Roland and the dogs at about 1:30 pm. There was a realtor coming with a client to see the house at 2 PM. I was able to donate some more items and exchange the dog kennel that I have for Shane to something a bit smaller. His original one would have been a good dog house. This new one just needs some cleaning and a nice piece of foam for a bed.... or an older pillow. Something will be found.
I fell asleep in the recliner today. Being tired has been replaced by just conking out.
On the personal side of my recovery:
Being tired lately has come with an emotional component that didn't happen before. Now the two seem to be merging. There is really nothing to complain about overall. I am getting healthier day by day. My hair falling out and needing to shave the rest off so that the Wookie look kicks me out of a restaurant or anywhere else for that matter. The dealing with Roland's emotional load of grief, worry and pain. Having to be up and happy for other people. Everything gets to be exhausting. I do suppose that add cancer on top of all it, being a bit sad shouldn't be surprising.
