Normal

Every once in awhile I find myself wishing something strange or funny would happen so I could find inspiration for a blog and today is such a day. I haven't anything to report on that's amusing, or interesting, or even odd. Because these past few days have been normal, i.e. "unremarkable" days.

What I find wonderful about that is that this year, beginning with my mammogram in early January, has had very few "normal" days in it - from medical tests to doctor's visits to surgery and chemotherapy, hair loss and other side effects, and all else that goes along with such things. It's been quite a year and the idea of "normal" has evoked the same reaction in my mind as the word "vacation". How sweet it would be! Well, I think its finally here.

So today, I am going to sit back and just enjoy another normal day. I'm feeling great and I'm done with doctors and hospitals for awhile so I can say with some confidence that life is once again "normal". Who would have thought that "normal" would be so awesome.
