One step backwards but two steps up!

Wow, soooo much going on this week...
the one step backwards is the achiness I've had for the past 3 days from my chemo last Tuesday. It literally feels like I jumped off a roof onto concrete in my bare feet...they are soooo achy...I have a little numbness in my fingers too. I was told these were the side effects, so I'll just put up with it...
BUT...2 steps forward...some friends had a car wash for us last Saturday. It is such a lifesaver right now with 2 kids going back to school, especially since one is in middle school & the other starts high school & they both need alot of stuff to start. The car wash dollars will allow us to pay down some major medical bills without sacrificing the things I need to get the kids. It was amazing...The other forward is the Susan G Komen Benefit this Saturday. The response has been incredible and it looks like we're gonna have over 500 people there. I'm a workaholic and it's been so frustrating to me over the past year to not have the energy to take on projects and I thank God that He's allowed me to be well to really dig in & help with this event! It's been incredible to my spirit!
