Absence did it make your heart grow fonder?

Or did you just forget this little blog even existed.  Feels like I've forgotten it existed.  Near the end of August I had grand plans of blogging regularly, which meant at least three times a week.  We all see how that turned out, a little like my plan to run a 1/2 Marathon in December...

Anyway, a quick catch up then I promise now that the Fall shows are coming to a close at work I will be attempting to blog a little more frequently.

Since we last spoke I am happy to report that I had a clean PET scan.  As you may recall last May they found a few abnormal spots on my lymph nodes.  Thankfully my doctors were right when they said there was nothing to be concerned about.  Although I would appreciate it if they would never use "a few abnormal spots" and "nothing to be concerned about" in the same sentence again.  Because quite honestly that's a little to close to "yes it's a terrible case of pregnancy sinusitis but I'm sure it's nothing to be concerned about."

In other health related news, it has been almost a year since I've had a relaxing hospital get away.  The only thing I seem to be struggling with is the occasional bout of vertigo.  Yesterday was the worst with a few trips to throw up.  Today I downed one of the left over anti-nausea pills from my chemo days.  Don't look at me that way one of my nurses said I could!  I'm very glad I took it to help me make it through the show today.  Not that it would be the first time I would have thrown up during a show but I wasn't looking forward to a repeat performance.

In non-health news, I am about to head into a brief layoff.  Next week we head to Denver to see Mom and Dad Chang and I couldn't be more excited.  Yes I'm even hoping for a little snow, sadly a ski trip does not seem to be in the plans this year. 

I'm sure there are a million other stories to share.  Often I'm writing them in my head but somehow they never make it to the computer screen.  So until we meet again my friends...
