Becoming More Active

9:25am

Round 2 in the hospital was definitely more difficult!! But my recovery rate was also as impressive. Post hospital (last sunday) until tuesday morning = "poopy feeling". Come the afternoon and a Positive Energy Tea I feel "OK" again. PS. feeling good is amazing! Take even an hour of feeling good over anything. Cancer surprises you and you can be feeling awesome one minute and then the next here's the drastic headache.

I've been out and about a lot more, visting friends and family. This has so much to do in part of my girl, OLIVE!

Being active through Olive walks at shoreline with running around ( i run, she chases me) It feels so AMAZING being able to run and well RUN!! The other day I was playing with olive and just cranked out 10 push-ups, like a boss! We also walk to my Auntie Lidia's house which is less than half a mile and Olive loves playing with Niniz as I run around and play with Jazmine.


Saturday morning , My cousin Ana, invited me to a bike ride and I said yes. I havent spent much time away from olive but thought this would be a perfect time to crate/ kennel train her as I will be returning to the hospital again in another short week and my babe will be home alone more (mama n bro work)

The Bike ride was Wonderful! Cruised it and just enjoyed beautiful santa barbara! The route was From the Eastside to Shoreline Park to the Cemetery, back home. Estimated maybe 10 miles?



Later we walked down state street with all the dogs KONA, NINIZ and OLIVE. Then Ana, Diana, Myself and Angelica (Diana's bf's Daughter) mobbed. Everyone DT was saying how Olive was so adorable and cute. Yay I win cuteness award, or at least my dog does! Olive is improving with a leash. After her second round of shots and my third Round of Chemo we're going to attempt hiking!

Hiking is a goal i've been looking forward to. For myself, in activity level, and for my canine buddy who will be roughing the terrains alongside. Learning experience for the both of us. I can't wait!

Olive- One week after Round 2

Hiii everyone!

I know its been a little while since I've posted a blog! Have No fear though! My health is in great condition! I have recently posted about my new pup, Olive. She's like a baby taking up all my time and i want to give her my full attention, she deserves it!


Olive, has been of great help! She has dereieved my focus on something else besides myself. I'm so obsessed watching her grow and develop,getting into mischeif and learning from her mistakes. I'm a proud doggy-mommy when she notifies me to get off the bed and go to the bathroom. Yes, its at 5 in the morning, but i'd rather wake up at 5, then having to wash my bedsheets at 5.

Right now im sitting on the porch and watching her play with her tennis ball, she's already lost or demolished like 4 of them. 

Later we have a doggydate with one of my friends Jenn who is the owner of a beautiful German Shepard named Asha. Yay for playdates :) I want my Little, soon not-to-be-little, Olive to be as social as she can be. Non-Aggressive and playful with other canines and of course human as well. We've gone to shoreline park and met other pooches along with their owners. Olive has really amazing cousins too like Kona (my cousin Diana's dog-Boxer 1yo) and Bonita aka Niniz (Auntie Lidia, Cousin Ana, Neice Jazmine-white curly haired 10 yo)


yay Olive!
