The Cape is on and I am back

Well after the last time I had wrote I wasn't ever sure that I would or could say that I feel better than ever!  I have found my super woman powers and although they are definitely not what they used to be, I do possess them once again.  I just realized as I sit here writing that I am holding and cuddling my new super power source - Charlotte.  Family and friends don't worry I am not gonna wear those silly tight ass super hero costumes because then I would just look plain silly and would embarrass my family greatly, wait a minute I do love to embarrass them.
 My three month hiatus from work was exactly what I needed even though I hate to admit that Doug was right. lol  He really did me a favour by taking me to the doctors to get some much needed time off.   These three months gave me time for me which may sound selfish but it was my saving grace.  I hated work, I was miserable and I definitely was not me. I was able to spend time with Doug that I needed to because without him I would not have made it emotionally through this last cancer scare.  I spent a lot of time with Melanie before our beautiful grand daughter Charlotte was born.  I was given an extra special gift from Melanie and Brendon when they asked me to be in the labor room with them.  I thought the experience of giving birth to our two children was awesome I can't describe how truly blessed I was to watch our daughter give birth to her first child.   I have been able to spend a lot of time with Charlotte that I would not have been able to had I been working and for this I will be forever grateful.
Tomorrow I go back to work.  How do I feel?  Anxious, two weeks ago I was ready to go back but today I am not sure probably just the thought of getting up early and having to face that cold dark morning is turning me off.   I wonder if work would mind if I went in an hour late.  lol   I must say at least I don't have to get into a cold car, once again Doug saved me by having  a car starter put in my car last year.


Wishing everyone a healthy year
Hugs
