 ahhh may!

may I continue to progress through chemo treatments, and ultimately full recovery! 

     but for now, I'm back at work, working up to 20 hours a week, so half-days, while the chemo isn't kicking my can :-)  my team was so happy to see/hear from me on my first day ... definitely felt the love. 

     after just the one chemo treatment I've already experienced hair loss, so I had my hair stylist give me a really short style that will make cleanup and loss much easier.  I also went to the wig shop recommended by my care team, and got myself a cute little pixie cut wig that matches my natural hair color from way back when I was 21!  
  

     First Saturday in May!  I'm Derby - 150th Derby - ready!!
 

     when the time arrived for the final race of the day, I donned my second chapeau (plus wig) and made a very light mint julep in my QEII 70th Jubilee glass with the 150 bourbon.  this year's winner was Mystik Dan who was technically a "long shot."  














     mid-month we had a solar event that caused an aurora borealis!  Joyce took some pics from their location, and there were a bunch of beautiful shots all over FB.  I made a short video of some of the best ones.  I was in bed already, (necessary chemo recovery) so didn't get to see it live.
