Lots to be thankful for

Had lunch with friends today - enjoyed it so much.

We laughed, cried, held hands and laughed some more.  The food wasn't bad either.
Thanks girls - it was sooooo good to see you.   It was great to catch up and talk about what is happening - one of my friends is going through a similar thing, and my heart aches for her.  But talking and sharing sometimes helps - I hope so.  Love you both.  Thanks.

It was a beautiful day - sun shining and temperature perfect - still wearing my sandals - yeah!

Bought Halloween candy today - I hate halloween - but thought I should get some in the house and be ready for the kids coming.  We don't get as many kids as we used to.  I can feign not feeling good and George will have to answer the door when the kids come!!! lol

Picked up a couple of things for Christmas also - need to do it while feeling good.

Haven't given much thought to Thanksgiving - the turkey has not flown into the fridge yet - not sure I will let it in if it tries!!    I have no intention of cooking!!

Well - forgot to post yesterday's blog - so you get two for the price of one today.

Doctors appointments today - we are like a couple of senior citizens without the walkers - going to the docs in the middle of the day.  Crashed into one old dear with her walker - George almost knocked the hand sanitizer off the wall - she took him out!!!  These days I seem to see the funny side in everything.

Nurse visit also today - I am down to a bandaid on my drainage wound - it has healed very well - no infection in fact the whole incision has not been a problem - no staples, no outside stitches etc.  So I have been very lucky that way.

Back to the drawing board on Friday though - Taking out the remaining lympthnodes from my left arm and I get the drainage tube back - how lucky am I??-   Seriously though - it is scary and I know I make light of things, but it is how I handle things for the most part - I just want it over and to get my life back to normal.

Surgery on Friday It`s not for fun

Four week ago I thought I was done

My Thanksgiving is ruined `cos I`ll likely be sleeping

So no turkey for us and the family is weeping

Oh well - perhaps next week we can do our own thing

With turkey and squash and the salad of Spring

With pumpkin and apple the best pies in town

(Only if Maureen bakes them and she`s coming down)!!

To Whitby from Peterborough - we`re making a date

Or perhaps we`ll go there - we`ll have to see and wait

I have lots to be thankful for - people I can`t thank enough

I can`t continue now, because I am getting weepy and stuff!!

Love J
