February 6,2008 Here is to new beginnings.

Here is your quote for today:

The most interesting
people I know
drink in life
and savor every drop-
the sweet and the sour.
The good and the bad.
The planned
and the unplanned.

(Dark blue is my new color... it stands for Colon Cancer)

The last two mornings I have been treated to breakfast what a treat, because I love breakfast food. Thanks Angie and Cindy.
With all this help my house will be so well organized my family won't be able to find anything. Thanks to my sister-in-law Anne you were a great help.

Once again dinner was delivered by Nancy, soup, bread and brownies. Plus my good friend Gerri dropped off her famous mac-n-cheese. I am sitting her waiting for it to get done. The Cleaning Good Fairy came again today and cleaned my house. (thanks Dawn). My family is going to get spoiled with all the clean sheets and house.

We just got home from my CAT SCAN! Had to drink again, boy do I hate doing that. I also had to give blood. All went well. The drive home was the worse part. Matt's 4 wheel drive went out on the truck. So we slipped and slid all the way home.

Oh I forget to mention we were woken by Myles screaming last night: "MOM!!! the rain is coming in from my ceiling. !" We looked and it was also coming in our living room and kitchen. Boy when it rains it pours. Does anyone know a good roofer???

I was so glad I got to go to church today. Thanks to Cindy for picking me up. Forty days and forty nights, I am giving up Colon Cancer for life. How does that sound???

Thanks for everyone who is making comments on the blog, they are very inspirational. Keep them coming.
Also, I am enjoying all the cards. They sure lift up my spirits.

Well that is all for know I am going to go watch American Idol and get a few good laughs. Some of them sing worse than me... and that's pretty bad!

Remember to ...Live, Love and Laugh... one day at a time.

I'm glad to hear you're doing well, but I'm sorry to hear about your roof! Let me get the number of the guy who fixed ours last summer (remember when the ceiling in our front closet fell in?). He was the 3rd guy to work on it in 2 years, and his work seems to be the best.

When will you get the results of your CT Scan? Rough day to go for that test with the storm we had. I know the feeling of not having 4WD. I drove back from Novi last night. It took me 10 minutes to get up my driveway because of the ice! I wish the kids had the day off today because I didn't feel up to going back out there. I am so looking forward to AZ next week!

Keep warm, healthy, and feelin' the love.

Hello There!
Haven't seen much of you this week, you have been a busy girl with all your outings. And since I had to work today I couldn't play scrabble with you. We will get our fill of games on Sunday though. I hope to see you tomorrow at some point.

Hi Mrs. Ciolek,
It's Michelle. It was great too see you at school other day. You look wonderful. I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers always. I know that if any one can get through this it will be you. :) I still have your class at lunch. They NEED YOU. LOL! :) I have told Mrs. Stigleman to give the $ amount for the candy grams. I thought I would just keep you updated on that. :) I can send you PTO notes if you would like? :) That's all for now. I will talk to you soon. I heard a saying when my mom was sick that stuck with me. I thought I would share it with you.
"If god brings you to it. He will bring you through it." Take care.
