I actually had some energy yesterday and went to a meeting, shopping, and out to dinner. I am exhausted and drained of energy today and have to be responsible and get some rest. I realize I am paying for being so active yesterday and that was irresponsible of me to push my energy so much. It just felt so good to be able to go places & do things!!! Having cancer constantly reminds me to be responsible and take it easy.  Running on Empty--------Bunnypie  |

Yes, I can identify. When I feel good and get the opportunity to go, I am gone and generally over do things. I generally pay for a couple of days afterward. I have to choose what I can or cannot do, knowing how my body will react afterward. Like going up to see my sister on the bus, I always hurt afterward, but I felt it was worth it. I haven't heard from her since she went home. They have a day care and you don't want to phone when babies and little ones are sleeping. She probably rests at the same time. I was hoping she would pick up the phone and call me when she had a few moments to herself. My service sponsor use to say, "I never call my sponsees if they don't call me." Before she passed away, I was sponsoring her and I called her if I didn't hear from her, even if it was just to leave a message so she knew I cared. I am not only responsible for helping others, I am responsible for my own life and welfare. I need to make healthy and responsible decisions. Each day, I have to do what I call the Step 1, 2, 3 Waltz. I can't, my God can, just for today, I choose to let Him. ![]() Yes, I can identify.

Thanks for your understanding! I know better than too push too hard but it just happens. LOL sh*t happens and usually to me. I mostly slept and ate all day today. I have to be at the Cancer Center for chemo at 8am tomorrow so I have to try to get some more rest. It will be my 7th chemo treatment and (9) nine more to go after that. What a long strange trip it's been......Bunnypie

Thanks for the hug!!! In program we say Hugs not Drugs!!! A hug always makes me feel better and the best part is that you can give one back when you are hugging so it is a win/win situation!!! Hugs & Stuff-----Bunnypie:)

Bought a pen that said hugs not drugs yesterday. I bought it to right in my food diary, which I haven't done yet today.
