Mostly Good!

A funny thing happens when you get cancer.  You're automatically inducted into this club that no one wants to be in.  I have SO MANY friends that I met through this cancer club, and I'm so grateful with my association with each one of them!  This morning I went to Murray to pick up a bed frame, and got a text from one of my friends, Shauna!  We were diagnosed about the same time last time, I met her at a luncheon for breast cancer survivors.  When we met, we both had really short, red hair - I knew she'd be a forever friend!

We decided to meet at our favorite Indian place, because when you can't taste stuff, there's nothing better than spicy Indian food!  It was great to see her and spend a little time together.  Thanks for thinking of me Shauna!

I had a little time to stop by the Murray DI too, and I hit the motherlode!  I love having a good day at DI.  It's right up there with dark chocolate (which I haven't eaten in almost a month - blahhh!), a date night with Mat (which is so often . . . DI!), or putting on my fuzzy pjs, making popcorn, and watching a movie.

And then I thought, what the heck!  I'll go see my little brother!  My brother, Jon, is at least a foot taller than me.  We're not sure where he got his mutant genes, but he's the coolest little brother anyone could ever want!  And look at Nubbin, had to go see him too!  If you ever meet Jon, ask him about the heirloom park bench statue (a wedding present for my parents in the mid 50's) that I hit instead of him.  Remember back in the day, when phones were corded, but the receiver was really easy to unplug from the cord?  And when it flies at a high rate of speed, it can do some damage.  But it didn't do any damage to Jon.  My mom did glue it back together, but it forever had a dime-sized hole in the top that couldn't be fixed because the pieces were too small to glue. 

We've had so much food brought in the last couple of weeks!  We had dinner brought in again tonight for us.  You know the really remarkable thing?  Not a single person was asked to do it through the RS.  Every single one thought about us, cares about us, and offered to do it on their own (that's what I've been told).  It's been amazing! The food and the thoughtfulness!  You know who you are, THANK YOU for your kindness and concern for our family!
