Feeling pretty good

I don't know why - well, I think I do, but I feel a bit more at peace than I have for a long time. I've been off the estrogen blocker now for six weeks, so I'm sure that has a lot to do with it. I still haven't found a job, but I continue to attempt to find something. I even went to one of those corny job fairs last week. They really aren't very stimulating but there were a couple places I thought I should check out.
Right now I'm sitting at the cancer center getting Herceptin. Dr. Kaplan gave me a new estrogen blocker to try out, but I won't start taking them until next week. I want to feel good this coming weekend, because I'm going glamping!
Yes, I'm going back up to my favorite place, canvas cabin #355 at Lakedale Resort on San Juan Island. I booked it for Memorial Day weekend because I thought for sure I'd be working by now, and I can't get my deposit back now, so what the hell. I can read, think, hang out, and I am having a great new adventure Sunday. I'm going to zip line! There's a new outfit up there called Zip San Juan, and it is getting great revues. I wanted to do this in Hawaii, but ran out of time and energy. So, one more thing to cross off the old bucket list! Where they do it, is really close to Lakedale, so they will pick me up in their van, and bring me back. Sweet. We'll be zipping among the huge trees there. I think it will be cool. They have all the safety equipment and what not, so I'm not the least bit nervous - yet!
The Black Keys concert was awesome, and my date was very nice, but then he had invited me for dinner the following Friday - and he forgot! He called me at 5:30 p.m. and wasn't really up to going out - he was tired. I couldn't believe it. I'd ironed a couple of different outfits not knowing where we were going. He said, well, I could come over there and he'd cook for me, but I took a rain check. I called him a few days later and told him I didn't think this was going to work. I need a companion who can keep up with me! I'm not ready to sit in the easy chair and watch Netflix for a date. I like to do stuff; seriously - I'm still recovering from cancer treatment, and I have more energy than a lot of these guys. I don't and won't do boring. I guess that's part of the reason I like younger guys, is because they do have energy, even though some of them are incredibly immature.
Like I said before, I learned in my last group, to take care of me. So, I'm going glamping alone, and that's okay.
I went to Miss Rose's ukulele jam yesterday in Fremont - I had a second lesson with her Friday. I felt much more confident, and held my own most of the time. So many folks in her jams are beginners, so really no one cares if you goof up. It's fun, but Lord my hand hurt by the end! I am really having fun with this.
I finally finished the "Millennium" series of books, ("Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," etc.) and my God, they were thrilling. I wish I could write fiction, but I just can't dream up characters like that. I would highly recommend these books to anyone who likes to read thrillers. Excellent.
Not much else to say. I am getting stronger and working out daily, getting my body ready for the next surgery July 23. I have my girls almost lined up to come take care of me. I need someone with me for sure for two weeks. I thank all of them in advance for being such wonderful and giving friends.
