Stess! What stress?

 I am enjoying life I feel happy and having a lot of laughs lately. I don't have anything to worry about and I won't worry about anything. I feel good, I feel happy and most of all I feel well.
I have felt well for a long time but I did let the little things get to me, all of the little things have gone now and they have no place in my head any more.

Happy! Happy! Happy! Bouncy! Bouncy! Bouncy! That's me.

Sunday Fun

I picked my friend up and we set off for our favourite Farm Shop of all in Weardale. This is the place that sells the Apple Pie that I mentioned in my last consultant post. They serve the best apple pie in Weardale.
After we had our fill of yummy pie, my friend and I drove to a little park and decided to take some exercise. Or should I say have some Frisbie fun, we played Frisbie for about 10 minutes. I got out of breath, did some stretching and jumping but we laughed so much. I even managed to run a few paces. How good is that!
I feel so much better now than I have done for a long time, things are looking up for me in many ways now; including my health. I have more energy than I have had for ages and I am laughing more and more.

My Saturday

I went out for a drive this weekend with my friend. We decided to go up the coast to a little place called Seahouses, it's the first time I have been there and wasn't sure how to get there. But off we went. We drove through what seemed like 2 different weather zones, it was sunny then it was rain, big a splashy bouncy rain, then it was sunny again. We found a nice farm shop called The Country Barn farm and coffee shop, where we stopped for tea and cake.
When we got to Seahouses the sun was shining from on high. We started to walk around the small seaside town and then down to the small quay where the boats were moored and looked out to sea toward the Farne islands.
My friend and I decided to go for a little walk but to do that I had to climb a hill, I walked up it so fast not only was I out of breath at the top but so was my friend. When we got there (only about 100yds top to bottom but it was steep), my friend suggested we should have a game of Crazy Golf we laughed all the way round the crazy golf course, we both had holes in one. We both took a lot of strokes to get into holes but we laughed and laughed.
When we went back to the car we decided to go for a little drive up the coast about 2 or 3 mile to see Bamburgh Castle. What a magnificent building it is so imposing it domineers the area. Our Drive back was again through some bad bouncy rain but both my friend and I had  massive smiles on our faces.

Hospital Appointment

I had my consultant appointment at clinic yesterday, I was anxious as usual. My tummy was churning my head was full thoughts. I feel good I know there isn't anything that feels wrong or bad. But all the same it's the same every time I go to clinic.
I booked in as usual and sat down with my friend, within minutes my name was called to get my bloods taken. So far so good, though I had put 2.5kilo on. Not sure how that happened (well maybe I do). It's now my tummy churns most, the time between bloods and seeing the consultant.
Within just a few minutes my name is called, my consultant is standing up, not looking at my notes and shook my hand when I went in. I get worried when he does that it's usually bad news.
'How have you been feeling.' he asked, I told him I felt good just my elbow to complain about. He said that was good and started by saying. My red cells are up, my white cells are up. The best news is that My Paraprotein remains undetectable and my Light Chains are within the usual band.
All in all I think we were in the department 15mins that must be a record. My friend and I once again floated out of the department with another appointment for 8 weeks from now. How good is that.
Now where's that apple pie!!!!
