Because today is Thursday and I feel good, I forgot that I have to be careful of germs. I went to Pilates today then had my blood drawn, took the boys to the bank, had lunch, and was out and about. Then I went to Target, met Sean and the boys for dinner, and then to a high school basketball game. As I was sitting in the hot gym it hit me that I shouldn’t be in public like this. It’s cruel.

Am I Crazy?

I forget that because I feel so good, I still need to be careful. I panicked a little and left the gym. When I got home I took a fistful of vitamins and ate an orange. Seriously, like a crazy person. I don’t want to get sick again. I lost too many good days before chemo last time and I don’t want that to happen again.

How Much Vitamin C Can Be In One Orange?!

We are supposed to go to the movies tomorrow night. Umm, I don’t know if I can eat enough oranges throughout the day to make it seem OK. Crazy person, yes. I truly feel like I am in the home stretch and my little outings could expose me to germs and prolong the fight and I’m not willing.

Tomorrow morning I am meeting some of the Livin the Dream Team to run the race route. It might be my favorite run. It gets me rejuvenated and so proud of the Team’s efforts. The race is less than a month away. The race company thinks that based on current numbers we will have 500 runners. That’s incredible. If you are planning on running and haven’t registered, please sign up. If you are running 3.1 miles that morning wherever you live or with the Massachusetts contingency, sign up and email me. I will send your t-shirt and bib number so you can do it virtually.
