I read an article yesterday in People magazine.....about Patrick Swayze. It was titled "His Brave Battle". But I know from experience, bravery has nothing to do with it. Fighting cancer isn't like fighting a dragon. It's fighting something that's growing inside us WITHOUT killing ourselves. That doesn't take bravery.....it takes an extreme will to live. I just want to keep living, and I'm sure he does too. It's like we belong to some secret club. I know exactly how he feels cuz I'm in it too. His prognosis for 1 year is the same as mine is for 5 years......I'm the lucky one. Who'd have thought I could say that last June....that I'm lucky. My perception has changed so much about things, it's amazing. His will too.
My fridge is full of green stuff. Remember? I'm working on those summer sizes. I feel like a rabbit. I treated myself to one small....almost microscopic, really.......cookie. I have a sweet tooth that's absolutely insatiable! I will resist! I WILL resist!!
John and I have systematically been cleaning out stash spots and cupboards this past week. Good Grief! Why I save things I save, I will never know! So we're boxing up stuff we haven't touched since we moved here and shipping it to a local auction house. We no longer have 2 barns to hoard stuff in so it might take us a while to get used to pitching.......or how about, NOT bringing it home in the first place!! Now, that's a thought.......
Happy Birthday, Sweet Sue!
It's smelling greener everyday out there, isn't it?!
