The Internet is upset at the possibility of Lupita Nyong’o playing Helen of Troy as not being historically accurate. Helen was the offspring when Zeus (in the form of a swan) mated with Leda, the wife of the Spartan King, Tyndareus. Leda produced an egg, from which Helen emerged.

A goodly apple rotten at the heart:
O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!”

Oncology checkup (6.2 years since diagnosis, 5.6 years since start of treatment, 5.2 years since end of treatment): white count low (which is normal) but lower than usual, hemoglobin excellent, platelets low (which is normal) and steady, lymphocytes low (which is normal) and steady. All is good!

Today is day 4 of my summer recovery period and I have yet to take more than one nap on the same day. I don’t even know who I am anymore.

I have completed my first “summer recovery” nap. I have less physical and mental fatigue than in recent years. I give credit to geocaching and the boost it has given to my physical and mental stamina.
I just won’t mention that it took my mind about 13 seconds to come up with the word “stamina.”

I’m coming up on six years since my leukemia diagnosis date (Wednesday). I have put forth great effort to remain positive. I have learned to give myself grace when I must rest.

Leukemia fatigue is physically draining. Teaching fatigue is mentally draining. Being outdoors helps me combat both types of fatigue. Two months ago I started geocaching.

Dwarf planet Makemake averages 7 billion kilometers distant from the sun with a temperature of -243°C. However, according to my students, Makemake is still warmer and brighter than a calculus teacher's heart.
