I woke up with a headache again today. I have been back on the Neupogen shots since Friday night, Marc seems to think that is what is causing the headaches. I don't remember the shots doing that in the past but I don't remember a lot of things here lately. It seemed to subside a little after lunch so that is an improvement from yesterday. I go get labs again tomorrow & hopefully the Neupogen shots worked & my Neutraphil count is up.
Zack came in this morning & laid in bed with me & watched TV for a little bit.
I went & had a manicure & a pedicure done back in September right after I found out I had Leukemia. I had to get my gel tip finger nails removed since I was going to be in the hospital & have y oxygen saturation's monitored for so long & the pedicure was just because I wanted one. I only bring this up because I have not painted my toenails since. Marc was so sweet today & painted my toenails for me. It was great because I have felt so unfeminine for so long with no hair, it was just what I needed today, happy feet.
I guess it got pretty warm today, I didn't go outside. A good part of the snow started to melt only to reveal not quiet an inch of ice coating the driveway. Marc said he was worried that I would fall on the ice trying to get to the car in the driveway so I could go to the hospital. Brandon & Marc spent a large part of the afternoon trying to get the ice off.
Paige spent the night at Olivia's & will not be home until halftime. Brandon is going with Marc to the Columbus Clubhouse to watch the Super Bowl until halftime. Katie & Zack are home with me & we have the house to ourselves for a few hours tonight.

Moments in Time
Quotes
~~~~~~~
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body but, rather, to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOoHOo! What a ride!!"
~~~~~~~
Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.
~~~~~~~
Take risks: if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wiser.
~~~~~~~
If you are never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
~~~~~~~
Ask yourself: "What have I missed out on simply because I was too afraid of what others would think?"
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
I'd rather have 30 seconds of wonderful than a lifetime of nothing special.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count; it's the life in your years.

Hi Sandi,
I hope you're feeling better today. I'm with Marc about the ice be very carful, I've fallen enough this year for both of us on the ice. I was wondering if you're drinking plenty of water still? If you're not, that could be a source of headaches too. We watched the game next door, it was a good time. What a guy Marc is for painting your toenails for you and might I say what a good job too. You & Zack look like twins laying in the bed. I'm praying you have a better day & good numbers today. I'll give you a call this evening, I love you.

Love, love, love the polish color! Hope those headaches go away ASAP. Neupogen can cause headaches and low grade fever. I never got the headaches, but always ran a slight fever. It made for many manic calls to my doctor and a few unnecessary trips to the ER.
HI Sandi!
I am happy to hear you are feeling better! Love the toes!
Talk to you soon!
Paula
