Getting through it

I'm almost finished with the color matching exercise from class last week.  It was mostly a matter of finding the shortest number of steps to replicate the color I'd used in the collage, an interesting project.

I left class after only an hour this evening.  Today was an off day, that's all I can say.  I won't tell you what time I finally got up this morning.  I made it to my cancer support group - and was feeling well while I was there - but then went right back to bed until time to leave for class.  I felt awful, just like I felt on Friday night in Sacramento - chills, sweaty, feverish, nauseous.  I think a lot of it is side effects from medication which keeps me half drugged when I'm awake and in pain if I don't take it every four hours without fail.  Hopefully the radiation therapy will help with the pain.

Did you ever read that old Betty Smith novel, Tomorrow Will Be Better?  I kept thinking of that during the drive home tonight.  Tomorrow will be better!
