Hey friends,
Join me for a cozy winter outing with the doggies! I mean, how cute is Chloe in her puffer jacket? And Daphne in her hot pink fleece?
Chloe loves standing up at the window, watching the world go by.
And Micky is just out of the frame and very much NOT a jacket guy. When I tried
to put one on him on a freezing day he sat on the lawn and refused to go for a
walk until I removed it. Okay then!
And as for me, I'm feeling better. Hoorah! I actually feel like I'm coming out
of the tunnel. It was a longer tunnel than I'd anticipated, and had lots of dog
legs and side tunnels lol, but I made it.
Since we were last in touch I've been WRITING too. So exciting. My mojo is back
😍
Of course I may still experience tiredness and lack of inspiration in the
future, but for now I'm revelling in being back into the world of words. I
truly couldn't be happier.
And that means I'll have a book completed soon. It is finished, but I'm just
doing all the editing, which always takes longer than I'd like but I want it to
be good so I curb my impatience.
At the beginning of the year, just after my surgery, I started writing down my experience. It was one long document with no chapters, and I just kept adding to it. I realised, reading back to it, that it’s really funny.
I know ‘funny’ isn’t a word you’d normally use to describe a cancer memoir, but it is, along with uplifting, and giving you, the reader, a front row seat to what it’s really like to deal with a cancer diagnosis.
I like to think it takes away some of the scary mystery, because it is petrifying to think about what you’d do if you were ever told you had cancer.
I hope you’re well, and thank you for your continued messages, emails and comments. I have not responded to many at all, virtually zero, because it feels like ‘a lot’, but I truly, truly appreciate them, and read every word.
And I have taken on your advice, even down to what books to read (I just finished Yesteryear, what a crazy ride that was!!)
Big hugs to you, and I’ll see you soon, maybe with a new book!
