I am looking forward to returning to my daily routine with work. I have missed it......the structure, the routine, the communication, the multi-tasking, my team. I know that it will be good for my brain function and cognitive process to get back into the swing of things. The side effects of the medication will just have to take a backseat!! I have a job to perform and a company that depends on me. (I am a medical transcriptionist/dept. manager. I manage a department of 24 other medical transcriptionists who work from the convenience of their comfy home.)
I am blessed to be able to perform my duties remotely from home as well. Yes.... I am chained to my computer, e-mail and cell phone from early morning until late evening. I also have a household with two young men - who by the way are gaining independence by the day (at least they think they are.....can they do laundry? no, but Josh can cook some mean curry ramen noodles!! they will always need momma - I hope!) - who depend on me as well (I do a terrible job of keeping up with everything)....so I will have to set my priorities and boundaries that is for sure. Work consumed the best part of me prior to my seizure/discovery of the brain tumor.
I am so thankful for the two transcriptionists, Angie and Jessica, who covered for me while I was out this past six weeks. They did an outstanding job!
I do value my health that is for sure.....especially after what I have experienced. I have learned to take things slowly.
I have been knitting hats for myself the last few days....since my hair on top is starting to poke out of the top of my ponytail. I looked in the mirror this morning and ohmyword.....I swear I looked just like Kid Rock!! (minus the facial hair!) seriously......
I will have to wait to see if I have to have radiation before I can color, highlight or even get extensions......ugh. Thank God for bandanas, knitted hats, eyeliner, mascara and LIP GLOSS so I can look less like Kid Rock!
Until next time......
