Energy - What's that???

My energy level has been so up and down it drives me crazy.  I cannot have a consistent schedule because I never know if I'm going to physically be able to do the same things every day/week/month.

This week has been an excellent example:

Monday I had an appointment with the head Physical Therapist with WVU Healthcare.  I met her in the lobby at the cancer center, and then walked to the PT room (which was a longer walk than I had anticipated).  We discussed everything that's happened to me, and she evaluated me.  Basically, she thinks what I am doing is good (which is walking on the treadmill for 20 mins M-F and doing various leg strengthening and feet exercises).  Because she is not a specialist when it comes to feet problems, she is going to discuss it with some colleagues that are specialized in that area.  So I will probably be going back for another appointment to hear their opinion.

Anyhow - I had to walk back to the cancer center afterwards, and then I had to go to PetCo because my cats were out of food.

Since then I have felt like a zombie.  I haven't walked or done any form of physical therapy, and I've actually been falling asleep during the day, which is unusual for me.

What's a girl to do?  The only thing I can do is take it day by day and pray that my recovery time will shorten so that I can stop making backward progress (oxymoron?)  during my down time.
