C is for Unexpected

Hi, this is Geoff. You might be thinking that the title tonight is kind of stupid, and you would be right. It reflects the fact that we (Gin and I) are also kind of stupid sometimes. As Gin said last night, she wasn't feeling so hot. This is an early contender for understatement of the year. It was highly reminiscent of a bad chemo day. There are several theories as to what caused the regression. Most likely, it is due to aftershocks of chemo and/or radiation, as we were warned that would happen. However, it probably didn't help that Gin decided to spend most of her day yesterday running around Madison doing errands.

Don't get me wrong - you can definitely get a little cabin fever cooped up in our house right now. The dehumidifiers/blowers didn't help (good news on this front in just a minute). So, I can understand wanting to get out of the house. Funny thing is, we decided to basically repeat this today by going out and looking for bathroom stuff almost all day, and basically running ourselves in the ground doing that. Smart move, team.

Good news is, while Gin is a little run down, she is not doing nearly as bad as she was yesterday. More good news (eluded to earlier), the blowers/dehumidifier are gone. No more noise, no more terrible smell, and no more water. Good times, and time for a good night's sleep.
