Nicole's Notes

Well, okay, I'm still losing hair. And my skin is still dry as the desert. And my scalp too, which is weird. I'm debating whether I need to use more conditioner or try and get moisturizer to the bits where there's no hair (moisturizer on the bits with hair would be greazy). My lips, however, are only slightly dry and are almost constantly encased in a layer of vaseline. :)

I'm now doing the once a week chemo experience, spending most of Friday afternoons at the hospital. That's fine, nothing good happens Friday afternoons at the office. This round, I remembered to bring magazines, since last time all their magazines seemed to feature food, and since I had a doctor's appointment before the treatment, I'd missed lunch at work. And I spend all afternoon there sucking on ice to prevent another visit to lip hell.

Still not wearing the wig (the returned ones are going out in the mail today). I've found the perfect scarf, now all I need is about 10 like it! Quick, everyone go raid your grandmother's scarf collection! :) It must be time to dust off the sewing machine and go to the fabric store. I guess I could knit a hat or something. Jason's cousin Marcie taught me to knit in late November, but I haven't really caught on - my stitches would make a cat laugh (except that Penny's laugh sounds like meow). Crochet is much more my style, because coordinating two hands at once is beyond my ability. ;)
