Cancer update and a few goodies

Hi everybody, sorry it has been so long since I posted. As some of you may know I was diagnosed with breast cancer. In December I had a double mastectomy. This spring I have been going through chemotherapy. Honestly it is rough, some days I can't even type, Heck some days I can't even think! I still have one more chemo treatment so I will be honest I'm not quite ready to promise regular posts.
 Until then I will leave you with a bit of what I have been up to.

Me at chemo with my space alien shower cap on (it covers the cold cap that will hopefully help me keep my hair) I'm so afraid of catching the killer flu that is going around that every time I go out in public I wear a mask and gloves. I may look weird but so far it has kept me healthy.


Today I tried a Starbucks crystal ball frap. I think the purple sprinkles mean that my fortune is "magic" whatever that is supposed to mean I not sure but that's what the frap said.


And last but not least Green Chef, through the Ford cares (breast cancer) program was kind enough to send us two free boxes with three meals in each. I will eventually get around to doing a full review but let me just say that their customer service was amazing. We chose the carnivore box but neither Ben nor I eat fish so they were kind enough to substitute vegetarian option for those meals. 
If anyone is interested in trying Green Chef I have three coupons for a free first box to give away.
