Joy To The World!
Ed and I took a ride yesterday and as he wisped me off to the country we opened the windows wide. We drove for what seemed like an etenity, a joy in itself.
Today's Joy: I stuck my arm out the window to catch the breeze like I used to do when I was just a tot. Funny how the Mountain Laurel smells the same. The big fields of wildflowers housed the sounds of insects. We passed a farmer whom was tending to his cows, he looked like he was 103 but in a tough wonderful way. In another area we went by a pen of pigs who came to the fence to say hello. Being the photo-hag that I am I had the camera ready for my photogenic pig friends.
The day could not have been better. Just being alive and feeling alive after this ride shall carry me through another glorious day. Thank You God, I love this world!

What a wonderful way to see the rainbow at the end of the storm. Positiveness is the only answer. Our attitude has to be our priority.
My joy is that we were not swept away by the hurricane and the sun is shining today.
God is soooo good and HE is always a breath away.
You gals are such an inspiration to me. I thank you everyday that I found this site.
MY MOTTO is FAKE IT TO MAKE IT!!! It really works both on the outside and inside.
MUCH love to all of you. Mary Jeanne

My Joy today is that I am not nauseated and I can fix my green vegetable drink and drink it and have a fatigue free day to start my move to another wonderful home. It will have windows that I can see the world out of. I have been in a condo with only the front and back exposed to the outside. I will feel free and also have a spare bedroom for company. How could life be anybetter??? Love, Mary Jeanne

Early rising to wake my granddaughter so she had plenty of time to get her 1st day of 3rd grade outfit "Just Right"! To see the joy and excitement in her face made my day! I see how hard she works to have a "normal" life without either of her parents. That little squirt gives me renewed purpose each an every day!

I am right there with you Mary Anne. I walked my daughter to her 5th grade classroom and my son to his 2nd grade room. Today is a great day. Dealing with a local recurrence makes my life seem so uncertain. But, today I got up thinking I'm the luckiest person in the world. Seeing them start another year just warms my heart.
Thank you God for today.

O The Joy
Ed and my Daddy went out together for an enjoyable ride in the country. They managed to give Mom a bit of a break....LOL. As you may remember, Mom comes over almost every night since diagnosis. Dad, however, does not see the big guy as often.
Today's Joy: Daddy said "Marie, I could have never picked a better man for you to spend your life with!" There is nothing better than my Daddy's opinions.

Almost Finished ...
... doing a big cleanout of our rather small walk-in closet in our bedroom.
Shelves were crammed with my hat collection from chemo in 2001 and 2002, shoes that do not fit or are not comfortable any more, half worn out slippers from the days that I did not go out much, and other memories of my fighting back with this disease.
Some chores get put off just because all the "baggage" that comes with them is too much to handle until some time has passed.
Now I have a 'skinny' highboy from IKEA that fits just outside the closet that I can put things in that I DO use and want to get at. The rearrangement of our bedroom makes it seem larger as well.
OH, JOY, to be able to put some more order in my life!!

Hey Juanita -
maybe Dilly would like this:

And anyone else who used to "wash their hair" in the garden mud like me and my little neighbor friend. Feels SO-O-O-O good!

What fun! I guess kids in the Ike-stormed area won't have problems to find mud. But it probably will be too polluted to play...

I have a picture of my kids when they were little and they were playing in the mud. All you can really see is the whites of their eyes and their little white teeth as they smile at the camera.

Those of us around Chicago are big sports fans. I was lucky enough to be at the Cubs game when our pitcher, Zambrano, had a no hitter. The last one for the Cubs was 36 years ago. Go Cubs!
