I woke up feeling a little nauseous in the middle of the night but it passed quickly. I'm not sure if it was a side effect of the chemo or because my stomach was empty. I took one of my anti-nausea medications and ate a little something and then went back to sleep. Other then that I've felt pretty good all day. My relief society president is an elementary school teacher and she is currently off-track and has been wanting to help me out so I had her watch the girls for me this morning so I could run a few errands and do some grocery shopping without them. It was nice to be able to get out and get a few things done. I also picked up a different constipation medicine to see if it will work better for me. My insides are still not feeling quite right. Got some laundry done today. Unfortunately one thing that is never-ending in a family of 8!

Our neighbor who went through chemo came by this afternoon to lend me her hats and scarves. She also had checked out a book from the library for me that she said she used when she lost her hair. It shows you how to draw eyebrows on your face and other makeup tips to help you look more natural while going through treatment. She also bought the makeup pencils and brush for me at the store! Such a thoughtful person!
