Pink Glove Dance

You guys, check it out. This was sent to me by an angel.  It was sent to her with this message:  Our daughter-in-law created, directed and choreographed this in Portland (OR) last week for her Medline glove division as a fundraiser for breast cancer awareness.  This was all her idea to help promote their new…


I’ve Got You Babe


Steady As We Go

I’m feeling sore but ok  this morning.  Rest assured dear angels and ponies, B is taking good loving care of me.

11/15/09

Some of you may be happy to hear that I engaged a driver yesterday.  I woke A from a sound slumber around 8:30 (on a Saturday morning, mind you) to take E and I on some errands.  She was very willing, I’m grateful to say, but asked today that we consider waiting to go upstairs until she…


11/5/09 Day 16

10/13 Simplicity on a better day

A rainy day, a kat on my lap, a big fire in the fireplace.  A good cry this morning.  A visit from my loving twin brother who arrived with a new, sure to be famous (at least in our house) chili for dinner.  Acupuncture relief.  A wonderful nap with my furry companions.  Laughter.  Several supportive conversations, one…


10/12/09, Pick’n’um up and put’n ‘m down

P, keeps pressing me to articulate the partners experience of breast cancer and chemotherapy. The other day I was having a wonderful conversation with a co-worker, a 20 year survivor of lymphoma. And, she has really taken a concern in my well-being, very sweet. The point however, was I mentioned that an essay was tumbling…
