The irony of just having spent foolish amounts of money on a new hairdo prior to finding out it will all fall out, ha ha.

He is losing his old tail and growing another.
We search the yard for feathers/treasure whene'er we come over.
And pictures of gum leaves I took yesterday, after noticing the catapillars.

Ha! Details at last!
My beautiful sister has thoughtfully posted details, which is handy cause I keep forgetting them.
"high grade, triple-negative neuroendocrine carcinoma. A fine needle biopsy of a suspicious lymph node came back negative and I have had a CT Scan (chest, intestinal and pelvis) as well as a bone scan that have also come back clear. Oncologist is still suspicious (or getting kickbacks from the nuclear imaging unit) as I am booked for a PET scan and a brain CT after new year. Apparently it’s rather unusual for a neuroendocrine tumour to be primary breast cancer. Read a few medical case studies and the ones I’ve seen usually aren’t triple-negative. So special!
Started chemo on Thursday and for the next 12 weeks, Wednesday will be chemo day on the Carboplatin/paclitaxel protocal. If all things stay to plan after that I move to fortnightly doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide for 8 weeks. Apparently I’ll probably loose my hair with the first lot and ..."
Far out brussel sprout, ay?
She is going to nail them chemo beanies though.
She is heaps more systematic than me.
Probably even hydromatic.
Have a kitty by my side and chucked FeedMe outside for the short-term cause he sprayed my leg and I can't be having with that.
Have been super hungry since sister's news which is odd cause i am not a comfort eater.
More of a comfort drinker.
It was 31 degrees inside at my bed under the ceiling fan when I came home, and has dipped to about 29, but that could be because it is next to the wine bottle.
I have tomorrow and xmas off work and will be bright eyed and bushie tailed for boxing day.
Merry Christmas peoples 🎅

FeedMe...
... is a very handsome kitty.
My sister had her Porta catheter installed today, so next weeks chemo should be a little more convenient for her. She'll be able to get on with her crochet.
She has a couple of string bags to go before she starts on some of her chemo beanies. Mind you, I reckon its far too hot for beanies in this weather and she may be better off investing in a kool (and cool) hat.
One of the ladies on palliative care wot comes to my workplace has evolved into a rather fetching hat somewhat reminiscent of a bowler.

Blinks
Well ... my sister had her appointment with the oncologist today.
He's decided to start her on chemo tomorrow, rather than the originally planned 27th or so.
She has downloaded a bunch of Star Trek episodes to watch whilst she is on the drip.
Eldest sister has ordered photos for the yearly family photo album for next year.
We are such a geekie family.

The bits ....
... i am fond of from my beloved band's first single are 'the tree of love is sappy' and 'i fornicate with the moon'.
I had a bedroom in a highset house wot looked out onto the sunrise which I would wake briefly to, before going back to sleep during my teenage years.
Sometimes I would wake earlier to only the moon and stars and fornicating with the moon is the unromantic version of where my thoughts drifted.
I blame it on the greek myths I used to read . I think many go through that phase.
Only bestie Michelle ever tried to draft a family tree of the greek gods.
It got very complicated.
After she'd had to tape together four sheets of foolscap paper because Zeus kept raping/fornicating with sisters/daughters/grand children, not to mention Venus and her children and other varous gods leaking semen about the place she gave up and moved on to designing Flash Gordon style outfits onto outlines of Betty and Veronica from Archie comics.
I can't see myself making it to any shows in the near future.
I am going to hang around home like a bad smell and attempt to be useful.
