It’s crazy to have this much gumption. To realize that i could do anything. really anything any mostly upright human adult could do. anything… I didn’t see it coming but this is a lot of pressure. What should i do? I should do it all– now.
I should work on getting more work. I should work. I should write a thousand thank you notes. I should wrap a bunch of rocks to give as christmas presents. (i hope that doesn’t spoil the surprise). I should dance in the streets, i should climb the highest mountain, i should reach for the stars (after stretching first of course- i’ve already pulled 2 muscles driving my newfound gumption up the highest hill).
I have tufty hair. I have blood. I have roses in my cheeks. I will be sending updated pictures here momentarily. Oh- I should take pictures of my eyebrows!
So now that i feel so much better I have to figure out the plan. I have to make decisions and such like people not on chemo. My only job on chemo was to get through it. Get better. Now i am so much better i have to think too. This is a full-time job.
i want to go visiting. i want to run amok. i went to the gym last night and it was so much dang fun. everything still works for the most part. i’ve lost a muscle or two but i still go.
i want you all to send me your christmas lists and i will think real hard on it. and i will send you love. Probably you will just get a rock or maybe a note. probably in january or april. but that is not because i don’t love you and think you deserve stuff.
love,
valg
Hallelujah!!!!!
And rocks make lovely gifts. Stone soup anyone?
YAY VAL GARRISON!!!! YAY VAL GARRISON!
So good to hear you joyful. Lets go throw food and take drives and eat sushi and dance in parking lots and howl at the moon. I’m off from the 17th of Dec to the 2nd of January and want me some Val time in there somewheres. love you, like bunches.
What could be a better gift for Christmas than feeling healthy and happy? I’ll just keep having more of that please 🙂
Sounds like you’ll have a Merry Merry Christmas for sure.
