Playing Catchup

It feels like a long time since I have sat and collected my thoughts long enough to write a post. Probably because it has! So here goes the "Cole's note" update on what has been going on since my last post:
  • Tissue expansion completed, only to find out the expander is not a long term option for me as it is already deflating. Another operation will be required to replace the expander with an implant.
  • I have been occasional pains in my "good" boob and some in my right one as well. It is just scar tissue and massaging it feels good. Although it seems a little odd to be rubbing my own boobs. Looking for a pool boy to do odd job and I don't have a pool...or any money to pay them.
  • Summer fun has been happening despite the rain, wind and lack of sun. Nothing like camping in the rain and celebrating my birthday with no power thanks to a post tropical storm.  We were all set though with a cabin, Coleman stove, fire, alcohol and great company.
  • Had my yearly mammogram and all is good. Two years down! whoot whoot.
  • My family doctor has left the country (literally) and I am awaiting a replacement. I have lack of faith in the next one already and they haven't even been appointed
  • I changed jobs. New people, new environment. It's odd but I am just beginning to settle in and find my role. Moving back to agency life allows for my creativity to flow. Now if I could only get people on board to live in my happy positive bubble my island would not be so lonely.
  • I met a great guy who likes to do a lot of the same things I do. We go for drives, cook up yummy things, watch cooking shows, and talk until 3am...I must admit I am a smitten kitten. 
It's hard to believe it is Labour Day weekend already and the summer has flown bye. What does the fall bring? Doctor appointments, possible surgery, birthdays and lots of laughter. I have not posted any pictures on this blog but I have decided to change that up to give you a glimpse of my summer fun catch up.
