It's official- radiatin sucks!

I have been so incredibly tired since radiation started.  I am usually my normal self in the mornings, but as I am driving home from my treatment around noon it takes everything in me to keep my eyes open.  I am also kind of emotional and weepy- the way little kids get when they are ready for a nap!  I haven't really been able to make much for dinner for the family because I just can't get up or get motivated enough to even thaw out any chicken.   I talked to a couple of women yesterday and they both said their first week was terrible, as far as exhaustion goes, but then it got better.  I hope so!  I know if it gets worse, I will need to recruit people to drive me there and back because it is really quite difficult to stay awake now as it is. 
To add to the fun, I hurt my shoulder about 10 days ago while painting.  I need to go to a doctor about it and maybe get a cortizone shot.  I don't really have time to go though.... I have also noticed this last week that I have at least a couple of teeth bothering me, my back is out of wack and I need to get back in to the chiropractor too.....but yea, no time for that shit.  Too busy going to radiation every flipping day, then coming home and sleeping.  Proof that when it rains, it pours.  And unfortunately it will have to rain for quite awhile because I just don't have time to deal with any of it right now.  Thank goodness my kids are healthy- they do all need haircuts though. 
And now it is time to go you know where....
