Hi, guys!

I’m back and in a much better headspace than the last time you heard from me. During my good weeks, I don’t blog because I feel like there’s SO many other things I need to accomplish during my short period of normality. I need to get better about collecting my thoughts during this time because I’m a lot more positive then lol.

I was due to go back in for my next infusion on Quinn’s birthday, July 19th. Due to my bloodwork being late and some insurance issues ( again lol) it got pushed back to next Tuesday, July 26th. I get TWO WHOLE WEEKS with no poison being pumped into my body. Typically during my good weeks, I cram them full of play dates, cleaning, work, editing, clearing my email, etc. I rarely leave time to rest/relax/sit still because why would I when around the corner is another comatose week? It has been SO nice having this week that has had no plans due to it being an infusion week. I don’t know what to do with all my free time. I’ve put together three lego sets and have a fourth waiting to be opened. I unsubscribed from countless emails that spam my inbox, I’m planning out my fall/holiday schedule….it’s so weird having down time but also so so nice.

It’s the break I needed halfway through this journey. Thank god.

This past weekend we celebrated our sweet Queen turning FIVE! Friends and family gathered and partied with us on Saturday. It was such a cute party and so much fun. I’m so thankful for everyone who came and helped and made her special day what it was.

My words clearly don’t come as clearly when I’m in a happy/distracted headspace because I’m struggling to even put this together lol. I feel okay, I feel refreshed, I feel ready to begin the second half of my journey. Now we count DOWN the number of infusions, not up. Four. More. Left.
