First and foremost: Merry Christmas!

Thank you for answering many of my questions. I am so grateful.

Um, I do think I am having some night sweats. At first I thought maybe it was my electric blanket for this is my 1st year living in a cold climate for I moved here to Northern Ohio( right on Lake Erie) from South Florida. ( Husband lived here and once he saw how expensive Florida was- He went... " Darling. Let's move you here instead." LOL

However, I turned off the blanket and woke with a sweaty forehead anyway. That and the last few nights I've had trouble either getting to sleep or staying asleep. These things I'm taking in stride. Last night I decided to sleep " Commando style" as my friends call (In the buff) Now that helped until I had to go to the bathroom and it sure felt chilly getting out of bed to grab my robe. Brrrr. 70 degrees used to seem cold to me.

As for the sex thing. Um... Kind of embarrassing to try and explain this but...

I have had the craziest dreams the past 5 days! The doctor said not to do anything for at least 6 weeks which my husband totally understands and so do I but... In my dreams??? And they're not just dreams of me and my husband but I had one that included OK... REALLY embarrassing.. One with Johnny Depp and then one which involved my ex. Am I losing it here? I feel weird.

However... I still feel very blessed. Yes, it's been a heckuva year. First with the leukemia back in 2007; fighting that battle on my own for all my family was 1500 miles away and I didn't want to worry them to death so I kept "it cool" ; Yes, they were panicked but allowed me to do it my way and I got into remission as of March of this year!!! Yea! And then getting married to a wonderful man who understood and accepted the CML for what it is in Feb 2008... relocating my entire life, and the worse thing I ever experienced to date was then losing my precious Mother ( who was just 61 and had been married to my dad for 44 years) suddenly and very unexpectedly on my birthday this past August ... and the finale was discovering all of this...

Heck! I look at it this way... God must REALLY believe in me so I have no intention of letting him down by giving up now. My mom always said HE never gives you more than you can handle if you believe in yourself also.

But I will say this...
I hope this is it. I kind of need a break. :o)
