Here is another pair of Kick Ass Cancer Boots! (thanks Dawn)
Live today
Cherish your yesterdays,
dream your tomorrows,
but live your todays.
Tomorrow belongs to those
who fully use today.
This comes from the book No Limits But the Sky. (Hallmark special. Thanks Lisa from Washington). More of these great inspirations to come. I just love the book. I just love the basket of goodies you guys keep sending me. Jill I love the angel magnets. You guys are the best!!
I know it has been awhile since my last posting, but I am trying to live a normal life. (HAHAHA).
Dinner thanks go out to the following families: Siladke, the men at the Sieradzki house, (sorry Debbie you were out of town: your boys did good) and the Smilnaks. thanks so much. You don't know how this helps my family out. Gerri I will take a rain check for Lou's Pizza.. You guys are the best... Thanks Cindy for organizing it...
Well the week-end was good with friends and family keeping me busy-- visiting and playing cards. ( Jane I don't think our husbands will ever be the fastest at cards-- but we do love them).
St. Patrick's Day was different we usually go to the Elk's Club, but their cook left. So the cooks came to my house. The family came here to Corn beef and Cabbage, Shepard's pie and dessert. Thanks to Jenny and Dawn for helping to make my first St. Patrick's feast. It is great making memories. Sorry Jac you couldn't be here.
Thanks to Barb Butler who took me to breakfast and shopping (for Matt's Birthday gift.. boy did I get a deal). Thanks to Barb, Teresa, Judi and Shelly for my new angel of Healing. She is so beautiful. I am so blessed to have so many wonderful friends.
March 19th... Round 2 of Chemo.... didn't happen... white blood count too low... just got a mini chemo treatment instead. Still took a lot out me but, it wasn't as bad. (Mom was here on Spring Break with me.) So the next big treatment will be April 2nd. So I will wear the same boots again. Cindy is on a mission to find me size 7 white gogo boots. Those will be for Round 3 since I can wear white after Easter. Beautiful flowers came to brighten my day thanks to Sheri's mom,dad and her sisters family. They sure did help.
Good Friday was spent getting my doctors note to my work. Doc can't tell me when I can go back yet. I am getting pretty restless. Shopping and going out to eat is getting a little boring for me.. plus costly... Matt is trying to find me jobs around the house to keep me busy instead.
Jane was my chauffeur... to get my nails and feet done... just in case I could of wore sandals this Easter. What a joke that was. Because of the snow Jac didn't make it home to dye Easter eggs. So Dawn, Ashlee, Paul, Anne, Lola, Greg and Myles did the eggs. (My mom was missing in action!). New traditions and new memories that is what life is all about. Played a new game Racko.. of course Jenny is the Queen.. Anne, Paul and I did try, but she was just too good for us.
Thanks to my Bunco Gals for keeping me entertained this week. I sure do love playing even though I don't win .
Myles leaves for Arizona on Easter for a few days of rest and relaxation. He sure does deserve it.. Yes, he did make the Lacrosse Team. Thanks to Coach Jolly for being understanding and letting him have the week off. Myles knows he has to work hard if he is going to get any play time. (I promise to post the times for his games next week).
I want to wish everyone a Happy Easter and remember to make memories with your family. Cherish your time together. I am truly, truly blessed by you all. Thanks so much for being there for me. I will post again after my next mini-treatment on Wednesday.
Remember to Live,Love, Laugh........ One Day at a Time.....
P.S.
{Just to let you know one of Matt's friends, Grace, asked me to walk in the Walk of Life in May as a person fighting Cancer. There is different ways we can help her... purchase a star for a $1, and or purchase a bag that will line the track with a candle in for $10 the bag can be decorated with a survivors name or someone who passed from cancer or someone fighting cancer. Let me know if you are interested. If you want more info I can give you Grace's email address. If I raise $100 I can get a tee shirt to wear during the event. }
