Well, I did walk and was so thrilled I did it and then the next night I had family for dinner and woke up the next morning not feeling so hot. Took the day to regroup and get my head out of the toilet and back at work today. I am heading to Philadelphia for the LOOKING BEYOND BREAST CANCER conference and will be back on Sunday. I am not a great fan of traveling by myself and mealtime is awful when you sit and read and reread the menu and sugar packets etc or take a book to the table which just seems rude. I will get to fly in to Philadelphia and then find transportation to get to the hotel. I did win a travel scholarship so that means I also must share a room with another scholarship recipient, someone I have never met. I am also a volunteer at the conference and will be busy helping throughout the time and then back home on Sunday and back to work for the week. Last year I had aroommate as well and although it was not awful it was awkward. I guess I am getting to the age that sharing a bathroom with someone other than my husband is not at the top of my list of wanna do's. There will be a sea of breast cancer patients and survivors at this seminar and we each where a colored necklace that signifies how many years out since our diagnosis. There is much to be learned at this seminar and at days end I will be exhausted but hopefully I can bring back interesting information to share here at the institute. So far now, wish me a safe and uneventful trip and I will be reporting back to you what I have learned when I get back. Make it a great day! S
