and here we go

Well shortly I will pretend to try and sleep for a few hours before heading to the airport.
I fly to Chicago and then to Bangkok.
Hard to believe its here already.
One of the other things of note is that I am going to a "sun" place and looking forward to it.
Why would I not look forward to it? Well not that many months ago I would not have been able to consider shorts and bathing suits an option.
Its funny how my thought process has undergone a shift.
All I packed was bathing suits and shorts or skirts and sleeveless T's.
No thought of not being comfortable in such skimpy apparel. Yes I still have more to lose and one can always improve on their Muscle tone but I am not horrified at the thought.
Seven months is not such a long time when you look back. And seven months from meeting all of you.
A friend of mine asked me tonight if it was going to be weird meeting Dana for the first time.
No I replied, I may not have been in her physical presence but it will not feel like meeting for the first time.
It really is such a statement that my anxiety is so low over all of this.
Here I am travelling across the world, meeting up with 2 woman I have never met and no trepidation.
It really tells me how much control I have of my BP.
What a win these past months have been and what a journey.
Something none of us would have continued without one another.
So much has transpired to the group yet here we are still standing strong.
Rachel starts her Radiation treatments. She will be fine but it is all a bit much and rather nerve racking for her. Send out lots of healing Chi for our girl. We are hoping she gets the loss of appetite side affect and no other. Its the look good Naked radiation treatment she opted for.
We love you Rach, be well.
We will try and post to facebook but as there is some political unrest, well rather a lot of it, there may be facebook issues.
Meri is off to search for a new nest for her family. Hope they find what they seek.
Have a great couple of weeks and plan hard for the upcoming challenge.
