Keeping Busy

Well, today I find myself doing "normal" things.  The kids are at school and Scott is at work.  This day begins almost a week without appointments ... no doctors, thank goodness!  The hard part ... I feel like I should be doing something ... something to rid myself of this cancer.  So, I am choosing something CRAZY to do ... laundry!  It doesn't measure up to surgery or chemotherapy, but it feels SO good to get through that HUGE pile of clothes ... and feeling good is my number one focus!

Off I go, with old 90210 episodes to keep me company ... bring on the laundry!

Here's to a happy day ...

Getting the usual "normal" things done gives us all a feeling of accomplishment. Marking things off our lists. You are the best task master I have ever known. That ability...among so many others...will be invaluable on your "journey". I love you more than life itself Jill.

It's too bad it takes something like this to happen for us to enjoy "Normal" days and to appreciate the piles of laundry! He,he... This made me think of Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire when he/she was dancing with the mop! Enjoy your day dancing with the laundry!It's great to hear your positive attitude--Stay Strong!
