Today is treatment 91. Dave and I are at Siteman Cancer Center South County. It is quiet here today. My appointment is late so most people are gone for the day. We had a rainy drive down and expect a rainy drive home.
I finished “Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why it Matters and How to Harness It” by Ethan Kross. I highly recommend it. Kross discusses when the voice in our head is helpful and when it is not, and how to distinguish between the two. He delves into the impact of social media on the inner voice. Journaling is one of the tools Kross recommends to turn yourself to the narrative of your story, which helps step back from the negative into finding a constructive path forward.
I leave you with a smile. This is what toilet paper looks like when you live in a house with Madi, our 2 year-old lab. Her hobby is stealing it when we aren’t looking so she can chew on it. We rescue the remains.
I am not in control.
