Day 35. Hair is long, but not for long.

I had my first chemo session yesterday, but I'll post more about that in a couple days after I've felt the full effects of it.  But I have to say - so far, so good!  I felt really crappy last night about 2 hours after I got home, but today I'm just a little lightheaded and a lot tired.  Knock on wood!

But I wanted to share some pictures, and to have them on here in case I ever want to look back and see what my old life was like.  A couple weeks ago I had one of my old friends, who I met when we were showing horses in 4-H as kids, come over and take some photos.  She's now a professional photographer, and one of the best in the area at that.  But because she and I have been friends for so long, she's the first person I thought of when I decided to do this.

As most of you probably know, I have crazy long hair.  It's been long the majority of my life.  I made the mistake of getting it cut really short a few years ago, and it's taken me over four years to get it this long again.  So once the nasty chemo takes my hair, I won't see it this long for many years.

So I decided to ask Ashley to take a few pictures while I still have my long locks, and she happily agreed.  I got the photos from her today, and wanted to share with everyone.  And if you're ever in the market for a photographer in the Olympia/Tacoma area, check out www.ashleywilliardphotography.com!  :)

And here are a couple of my favorites, just by themselves:
