where did February go?

I know February is a short month, but where the heck did it go?  I can't believe that tomorrow is March!  February was a crazy month for me, but I guess that is a good thing -- it means that I've been living my life and not letting cancer live it for me!  Here's a quick recap of the month of February...

Feb 2 -- chemo
Feb 6 -- fly to LA
Feb 7 -- caught up with Jessica Jarvis (and her new hubby) & Peter G in LA (laughter filled evening, of course!)
Feb 8 -- client mtg in LA... caught up with Jen Maupin and Ella (fun filled afternoon at the beach!)... redeye back to Philly (bad idea... remind me never to take the redeye from the west coast again... while I sleep well on planes, it's not enough time to get a good rest in!)
Feb 9 -- chemo
Feb 16 -- chemo
Feb 17 -- client meeting in Indy
Feb 23 -- week off from chemo!  instead... fly to Orlando FL!
Feb 24+ -- psuedo vacation in Orlando!  I'll do a full post to tell you all about it, but the quick story is that we got to visit with Aunt Joan and Hugh & Uncle Bud and Mary Beth... spent the day at Universal... and attended a conference for young women affected by breast cancer (more to come!)
Feb 27 -- fly home to Philly
Feb 28 -- CT scans follow up to see what the liver and lungs look like!
 
Looking back at February, it's probably no surprise that here I sit on Feb 28, with a miserable chest cold... I came home from my scans and crawled back into bed for 3 hours!  
 
I have definitely been pushing it to the edge.  It is a constant battle between living life to the fullest and making sure that I don't over-do it. I'm still learning to set those limits though -- hopefully I will be more successful at it in March!
 
 
Here's a few pictures... from the snowy cold winter of NJ... to the beautiful spring-like day in LA...
