Tough Enough To Wear Pink

I need to hurry because it's almost midnight, I seem to do my best work in the wee hours.  But I must report on the fun weekend I've had!  A group from Young Survivor Sisters will be singing the national anthem at Days of '47 rodeo on Tuesday (our 16th anniversary).  "Tough Enough To Wear Pink" is the theme for the night.  We've had a couple of rehearsals at my house and tonight we went to the E Center for the sound check.  There will be 10 or 11 of us singing, it will be AWESOME!  I fell apart when we started singing and hope like the dickens that I can get through it without tears.  So, you should all come see us make our public singing debut, I think it will make us famous.  I will post video here Tuesday or Wednesday.  : )

I got to go to dinner last night with a new friend from Mississippi.  Her name is Cindy, she is a friend of my friend Melanie.  Melanie told her about me and my blog and she has been a follower for the last few months.  She is going through chemo right now for metastatic uterine cancer.  She was so fun to talk to, with her southern accent and charm!  She is so positive, an awesome example of how great people get through really hard things when they have faith in God and His plan for us.  I have never heard of anyone with a more aggressive chemo regimen than hers, my thoughts and my prayers are with you Cindy.  Thanks for hooking us up Melanie!  It was awesome to get out and just be our bald selves.

You are so very welcome! I loved being with both of you, and it gave me great joy to see the instant connection & friendship the two of you have. You have been so good for each other!

What an opportunity! I'm sorry I didn't get to listen but I can't wait for an update to hear how it went. I'm sure it was heavenly!

Looks like a great evening out with the girls. Take care of you!

I had a great time with you and Melanie Saturday night. You are an amazing woman, and you have no idea how much reading your blog helps.

Chemo #5 is down, and I'm only 3 cycles away from finishing! Yippee! Maybe we'll both have hair next time I visit SLC. :)

Thanks for hooking us up, Melanie!
