Friday

Glad to have the day off but hard to remind myself and others of that. I also decided that I am going to try and be really healthy in what I eat, drink, how I sleep etc during the rest of the week but on Fridays it just doesn't count. Food for my soul.

Um.......

For my list (which keeps getting longer the more people I talk to - or make that the more people talk to me)

Cancer don'ts - Tofu

Cancer dos - Eggplant, curry and green tea (eaten not steeped).

Perspective

Amazing how one little upsetting thing about this diagnosis/treatment can throw me into a tizzy and make my day a frustrating one where my mind is consumed by only that. On the other hand one itsy bit of good news will keep me flying for awhile. My perspective on the everyday struggles have completely changed. I used to worry about what was for dinner all of the time - not anymore - cereal anyone? Gym schedules - classes - personalities - HA! These are trivial things in life. I thank God everyday for the health and safety of my family. I cherish the snuggles I get from my children. I hug everyone I love just a little bit longer - not because I need to but because I don't want to waste any of that love - I want them to know their value in my life.

What is life without the ups and downs?

BORING!!!!!!!

Cancer Free Friday

I am declaring Friday - Cancer Free Friday. I am not going to think about it or talk about it on Fridays. You know how great Fridays feel looking forward to the weekends? I want to feel that way and I think it will be healthy to have a day I can be normal and think about other things. You in?
