#112 - Don't Like Missed Opportunities

Good-Bye Halloween

Halloween is over and I might never have such good costume opportunities, again. There were so many bald men I could have pulled off.

​
And Women

Bette Davis and Kristin Wiig have played some nice high-forehead-characters, that I could have had some fun with.  But I wasn't invited to any costume parties this year.  And besides I had a lot to do on Halloween.

Vote and Buy Candy

i got slightly in the spirit, looking like a Pumpkin Head, when I early voted at the grocery store.

Carving Chores

I had to carve the Jack-0-Lantern and get it out on the porch. Then I geared up for my 3rd Radiation. What should I wear?  It's Halloween after all.  
Radiation Fun

It was a little frustrating not dressing up. After all, Don and I dressed up for chemo days. But I knew I was going to be wearing a drab hospital gown, so it was hardly worth the effort. 

I did wear my pumpkin head scarf, which they made me remove, before my treatment. I opened my eyes and watched the machine's "head" move over me.  It was decorated with orange pumpkin lights.  Quite festive!

Then I thanked my 2 technicians who were dressed in matching tutus and I headed off to the dressing room. Oops! I forgot my scarf!  "Hi!"  I waved with an embarrassed grin to the man seated next in line, wearing his gown.  I reached up with my hand, to see if I had indeed walked into the waiting area with my bald head. All I could do was laugh. We'll all in gowns, after all!

At home, Don was making chili and the evening was balmy for trick-or-treaters. I was so happy to be feeling good.  My cold was gone and my chemo symptoms have pretty much disappeared... except for numb toes.

I was ready to answer the door to the kiddos. We only had 9, but that's okay. The chili was good and we caught an old Vincent Price thriller on TV.

    Cancer - Covid

    I started this complaining list/blog, in May 2016. I posted 200 gripes about my breast cancer and then I was done.

    On March 17, 2020, I started venting all over again, when another disease (starting with a C) interfered with my life. Only this time, it was affecting more than me.

    ​Coronavirus and Cancer! Both are evil, but neither can totally get me down... if I vent! I hope with Covid, I run out of complaints before 200!
