A Little Side Story...

This Taxol chemo has been a very different experience and I still do not feel like I have any idea what to expect next!  The exhaustion seems to be the only thing that has not changed.
So a little story I just thought I would share...
Today I woke feeling like I had a bit of energy to tackle a couple of simple projects, one of which was to make the oyster stew that is usually a New Year's tradition for us.  I had the ingredients and needed to get it made, so I did...no problem.  At noon I thought I would try a little bowl...I never know what will taste okay.  Filled a small bowl and as I was getting ready to heat it in the microwave, I was not paying attention and I hit the bowl with the microwave door as I was opening it.  This was the result.  I guess I should be grateful that the bowl did not shatter!


Since Gary was not home to rescue me, I cleaned up the whole mess myself...that's the most work I have done in weeks!  And, I have to say that I am proud that it did not reduce me to tears!
(Well, there are some cleaning supplies that I still need to put away.)

  3. I recently had a similar mishap with chili! What a mess. Sorry you had to clean it up, but glad you were able to do it! How was the stew, or did you even get a chance to enjoy any of it? Hugs!!

  4. Yes, Windy, I remember the spaghetti sauce on the ceiling! Barb, you did great. I must admit, I have been reduced to tears over spilled milk. No excuses.
