Need for Sleep

Well, I didn't even take any anti-nausea meds this round at all.  I am good on that front, which makes me a very happy person.  The one thing I am noticing a little more is how tired I am.  I am hoping that my tiredness is just from my lack of quality sleep rather than fatigue from chemo. More importantly, I hope it doesn't become cumulative and I get more tired each week. Then I may be in trouble.  I was dragging today.  Since I have been a lousy sleeper for a long time now, I know how to function on little sleep, but fatigue is a bit different.  It is a deeper kind of tired that shuts you down, mentally and physically.

Today I didn't really do a lot. Ran to some garage sales with Dane, did a few chores and kind of flubbed the day away.  Tonight we had dinner at Kristin's and hung out, but by 10:00 I was starting to fade.  I am just about ready to hit the hay and bank on being tired enough to zonk out.
