Not that they've hated being around me (at least I don't think so), or haven't loved me anyway (I KNOW so :) ), I just don't laugh at the same lame jokes, join in their frequently immature antics, or offer up my own punnies...
...that is until my latest surgery, now 2.3 weeks ago, when - apparently - my "Fun Inhibitor" was removed!!!
Yes, folks, I've actually laughed at inappropriate jokes, even shared a few myself, and otherwise amazed my family - or at least amused them - in my current boobless, not-as-bald, and newly brow-full state ;) Anchorman 2 is even on my "Must See" list!
--------------------------------------------
Best Mama, precious daughter, and I went out for a post-Christmas lunch on Thursday (really to get new boots for p. daughter since her "smart" mom ordered a cute-but-ankle-turning-prone pair from a non-returnable site [WARNING: Don't be tempted by the deals on Zulily unless you know the purchase is for keeps!] - fortunately they fit me :e ).
Well, my typically cold nature turned hot in the restaurant, and my head started sweating profusely under my cancer patient disguise, a.k.a hat (thank you winter weather for allowing me to look "normal" - lol!). I mentioned this, and my usually conservative mother said, "Why don't you take it off?" And I DID!!! We sat there eating (me a most delicious gluten-free pizza), I in my nearly-bald glory, in PUBLIC! When I went to re-don the hat I noticed an adorable little girl, perhaps 5 years old, watching me wide-eyed. I just smiled, and she returned it with the cutest grin :)
By the way, I trust that each of you had a wonderful Christmas!!!
We did, spread across several days, as it was, to accommodate various schedules - amazing son's not big on pictures ;) and I neglected to take any with hubby's fam Christmas Eve and brother's fam yesterday :o
We had a minor holiday interruption when my faithful, sometimes ferocious (especially when anyone attempts to keep him from me, like after surgery when this rotten thing growled at hubby and p. daughter [did I ever share that he's really HER pet???]) - and now FAT - Mini Cooper had a visit to the vet for a likely skin allergy (biting and scratching like crazy). It must be time for me to get moving again with this formerly 19- now nearly 25-pound pup!!!
No one WALKS him like me :D

So, what about that "WILD SIDE" ???
I got these great, fleece-lined leggings for Christmas from best Mama, but had nothing (long enough) to wear with them b/c they're tan! I found something at a boutique I'd never have entered - save with precious daughter.
When I came downstairs with it on yesterday, hubby commented, "Woo! Look at you!"
"Don't you like it?" I asked.
"Yeah, it's a little wild!" he responded with a smile ;)
Perhaps 2014 will not only be healthier, but more fun, and even a bit WILD!!!
Oh, oh, oh!!!
Can't forget to share the progress:

| MORE fuzzies and MY VERY OWN bushy eyebrows!!! |
Still having a hard time finding the energy to make it through an entire day, but I know that will come in time! Also have to get a handle on the chemo-induced neuropathy that's inhibiting my sleep -- #QuestionsForJanuaryAppointments. Otherwise all is well :tup
Hope that you all have a safe and very HAPPY NEW YEAR!
