Here's to a brand new week!

My granddaughter Katie once got one of those "lightning bolts" that kids often do. She jumped up and said, "Gramma! If we didn't have a spine, we would all walk like this." She bent over, arms dangling down, and started walking. I laughed til I almost ****** my pants! I have to say, that's how I've felt the last few days. No spine....wanna walk bent over.....actually, don't wanna walk at all! It's fatigue from the radiation and driving me nuts. I'm done with treatments, but those darn side effects aren't gonna let go without a fight! I slept away my whole weekend; but I will say, at 0 degrees outside, there wasn't much else to do. So I guess it was a great weekend for sleeping :-)

My husband does the 12 days of Christmas at every gift giving holiday. He's already shopped for me for Valentine's Day and it's just killing him to hold the gifts til Thursday! So I already received one over the weekend......Coffee! Delicious coffeehouse, robust, can-smell-it-through-the-bag coffee! 3 bags! 3 different kinds! And the best part, he doesn't even like coffeehouse coffee...he's a straight-up Folgers guy. So he's willing to drink MY coffee every morning til I use up all three bags. Now that's love.........
