Update


Max will tell you that he fed these cows at the farm. What happened was he picked up some hay and threw it their direction. See how excited he is to be so close to the cows? He's so brave.

The eyebrow update: still not normal, but they're making progress. The five o'clock shadow look is still there. I have done some plucking of them. I don't know if I was doing it to avoid having a uni-brow, or just out of excitement that I had the option to pluck. I have some eyelashes on their way in I think I mentioned before. I tried to put mascara on them, which was ridiculous considering they're like millimeters long. Literally, millimeters. I ended up with black smudge all over the place. For someone who never really liked wearing make-up, I'm sure working hard at getting more on there. The hair on the sides of my head lay down flat most of the time instead of sticking straight out. The hair on top sticks straight up in the air still. Its about 1/4 of an inch long. There is the occasional hair that rockets up to 1/2 an inch. over-achievers. I have leg hair and arm hair growing in. I was told that during radiation the hair on my armpit wouldn't grow. It's growing, and I'm pissed. I was hoping to never have to shave that sucker again. No such luck.

I haven't had any more dizziness. The doctor claims that it wasn't because of the amount of wax in my ear, but I have my doubts. How can that much stuff not cause issues!? I get tired and go to bed about 8 - 8:30, and sleep like a log. Since I don't usually go to bed that early, I would say I have some fatigue. It helps TONS that my Aunt is here. I have more time to play with Max & Cannon, and I have much less to do in the evening which has helped immensely. There is some burning, but its still pretty minimal. The dr. said there's a chance that Monday it could suddenly get bad over night. She has apparently had a couple of instances like that that have "surprised her." I don't feel like a surprising case, so I think I'll be good.

I'm thrilled its Friday! Have a good weekend!!
