Well, Gary & I got home from Philly on Friday morning at 3:30am. We left the hotel Thursday night at 6:30pm and he wanted to get home THAT night! I got to sleep most of the way. The view was basically all the same. The turnpike had few exits and they weren't easy ones to get off of either! We did it though! Thanks hon!
So we got up Saturday to return our rental car to the airport and stopped to see Laci & Matt & the boys. Maxton seems to be getting shy sometimes. And oh my, Colton is sure growing!!!
BAD DAYS
I won't lie...Sat-Sun-Mon-Tues I felt SO depressed. It was hard to get back into the swing of things at first. I was praying a lot but it was so hard to not feel fear this week. I was thinking of things to come instead of taking it one day at a time. But God, I can't let Satan take me down like this! I must be strong! I have battles to fight. I CAN get through this with Your help!
Thank goodness, I'm over it! I had lots of visitors this week and lots of people praying with me. My sis had her close friends make some delicious dishes for us. She came down Thursday and divided them all into seperate freezer containers. Then when I get mine out I will be able to pureed it. I have a bullet now to do all that. Believe me I'm sure getting use out of it!
So thank God I was able to get my positivity back!!! Yahooooooo....let's carry on. All that crying stuff gets old and makes you even more tired and down! So, come on dragon, I'm ready for you!!

It's 2010! Time to Reflect...
Almost 18 months cancer-free...how long will it last? Such an aggressive cancer, this damn Leiomyosarcoma! Every CT/MRI I have had since my completion of radiation in August 2008 was VERY stressful. Even when I didn't realize it, "SCAN"XIETY loomed in the back of head. Knowing that I had a 50% chance of the cancer returning. Wondering if NOT having chemo back then was the right path. Since my doc's hadn't dealt with many sarcomas, did they really know the BEST treatments?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The last year and half has brought me so much joy and contentment. To be a GRANDMA! Wow. I love it! To become so much closer to my family. My sis is my best friend now! My husband and I couldn't be any closer. I get to see my daughter and her family every week when I go to babysit my little Maxton. My stepdaughter moved in with our youngest grandson, Marcus, for 6 months. He is a little angel. My Mom has been so much help to me through all my health issues. My stepdad and I have become closer than I ever thought possible. He has been down the cancer road as well. My Mother-in-law has moved closer to us and our relationship has grown. And then I began working at Samaritan and have some wonderful friends! I love that place so much! It's worth the 45 minute drive.
I HAVE A WONDERFUL LIFE!
And I know how to live it...by the seat of my pants! :)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, chocolate in one hand, a beer (or tequila) in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, screaming "woo hoo, what a ride"
**HEY! DON'T FORGET TO GO TO "OLDER POSTS" JUST ABOVE THIS ON THE RIGHT. LOTS OF COOL INFO THERE TOO! YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS ME WITH TIM MCGRAW!
