Amazing Friends!

 Might as well do a post, despite it being almost 2 am! I have chemo tomorrow, but Mat is my driver, so it’s fine.

I’m super lucky to have amazing friends who make sure to keep up with me! Last Saturday I called one of my only friends left from high school (not meaning the are dead, but I’ve lost track of them!). It has been years since I saw Glenda! She’s lived in Farmington her whole life, and why is it so hard to connect?!? L.I.F.E. happens. She owns a cute house in Farmington, a money pit like the rest of us! She’s hardly changed, except the gray that’s coming through her gorgeous dark curly locks! We talked for 3 hours at The Habit in Station Park, not really ever slowing down … but when it’s time to go, you know.

I went to lunch today with Shauna who I share red hair with, and damn breast cancer, and we both have families that didn’t turn out QUITE like we always imagined! I met her the first time around, when the idea of switching to a vegan diet seemed like the golden ticket! We both gave it a good try, I forced the meal plan (in a positive way ) for about 2 years before I threw in the towel. It’s hard to want to feed people when they grumble the whole time about eating what you prep for them! So I switched my ideal cancer diet to the “eat whatever I want” diet. My weight is going down and the cancer cells are trending up! So who in the heck cares!

So, friends, I’m going to be around for a while yet, so come visit me! Sherri,

Colleen, Deneice, Wanda- at Kimball Junction?? Let’s do lunch or something. All are welcome, of course! And Pretty much anytime of day or night (because it’s now 3 am) and I’m still writing! Best hit the sack though. I love that I have so many people who follow me and pray for us!!! LOVE is the understatement of the day!

p.s. I forgot one or two. Jorge Anette Dennis randomly brought dinner a couple nights ago, which was so great! Jorge is the man who ran to my aid when I was first diagnosed (2009), giving me a giant bear hug and telling me everything would be Okay, to trust that HF does keep his promises to his beloved children!

Lastly, the Alaska Annette who came to visit her grand babies, but always saves a day for the “Bountiful friends”. I’m lucky to one one of them! She wanted to try out “my favorite” Indian food. Mambai House, Malai Kofta medium heat with garlic naan and throw in a mango lassi if I’m lucky!!! Royal India in Bountiful has killer Malai Kofta too.
