I feel like I've been sinking into a big black hole. This mood is somewhat unusual for me. I'm usually more upbeat than I have been this past week. I am working through it though!

Sunday I took this test called "How You Live Your Life" There were only five questions to answer and I was amazed at how accurate the computer described me. The results were: You are honest and direct. You tell it like it is. You're laid back and chill, but sometimes you care too much about what others think tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many aquaintences.You have one big dream in your life, and you never lose sight of it. Believe it or not this is so me!

Well, this is chemo week as well as blood work-up week. I just received the results from my blood work. The last two months (June & July) I received great news with my "cancer markers" (CA-125) going down a significant amount. This month the report isn't that great. My count went up 23 points from 416. to 439. For those of you who do not know CA-125 is the ovarian cancer marker and normal is 8-12. Needless to say I am not thrilled with the results; however, I continue to feel blessed and know that things could be much worse!!! I have come to the conclusion that the markers increased because of too much chocolate this month-LOL.

At least I'm not suffering from a broken heart. Ebs, my 15 year old, has a broken heart. Her boyfriend of six months broke up with her over the weekend. She went to the prom with him. She is a sophmore this year and he's going to college on a baseball scholoarship. I told her that being 15 and in love is tough and I would not do it again. I told her that in time she will be okay and be able to remember all the good times they shared, including her first prom. I didn't tell her that I thought it was for the best, but it is!

Work stuff is still the same - some things never change! :-)
