Routines Are Hard

After remarking in yesterday’s post about what my daily routine currently is, and how it most likely will change in a couple weeks when the missus starts radiation and chemotherapy treatment. I decided to dig a little deeper about how my routines have evolved over our many years together being married, while taking our three dogs out for their morning potty break.

When we first met in 2007, we really didn’t have any routines together outside of going to each other’s houses (I was living at home with my mum, she was living at home with her dad), and spending time together. Over the years, our daily routines changed in the context of spending as much time together as possible, to going to college every day for classes; going to work at multiple jobs in both our cases; to spending time with our daughter and grandkids. Now our routines will once more have a invocation of seismic proportions once more, once we know the treatment schedule and settle into it.

For both our sakes, I hope that this upcoming round of treatments is the only one we have to do for the foreseeable future.
