Today it's warm and sunny and the sky is clear, autumn blue with the trees blazing with color. I went out into the backyard and flopped on my back, no blankie, just me and the grass and rustling leaves, and soaked up the sun for a few minutes. Smelled the earth and the damp. Talk about feeling ALIVE! Just do it. Tina

Love it, Tina!! I do little things like that every day - go out when the weather is pleasant and sit in the backyard or back porch with a glass of wine and read the paper or a book. Take an hour for me. I shop for myself a little more than I used to - ordered some great Smashbox makeup last night from QVC. Treat myself to pedicures. Take more walks with my DH. Hold hands. LIVE!! chelev - Life is what you make of it - keep what works and get rid of what doesn't. TC - 2 rounds, Radiation - 33 rounds. Oncotype score - 27 (18%). Tamoxifen. BRCA Negative.

Today was one of those number ten days out of the year-- I walked the dog, came home and threw the ball for her until she could not even breathe anymore, then we walked about the property looking for chipmunk--my dog is a killer, but she can never quite catch those quick little critters. . . But she sure has a great time chasing them into wood piles, under the AC units, into the gutters. . .after they squeak and howl enough, and her litle stubb butt almost wags itself off, I I tell her to leave it and we go inside to have cookies. Knocks my socks off just what a little predator that sweet darling can be!! Jane - Dance as if no one is watching!!

I hired a dog walker for the rest of my radiation treatment as I am too pooped. I loved to see their tired happy faces after a 2 hour walk around a beautiful lake. In November, I'll be back to doing that for them but right now that was a nice break. Diagnosis: 5/23/2009, IDC, <1cm, Stage I, Grade 2, 0/1 nodes, ER+/PR-, HER2- |

My dh and her family (husband & 2 little kids) came for an overnight visit. That's them being good to me. Used disposables for all meals. That's me being good to me. Please don't tell my s-i-l, who's a big environmentalist, about the disposables. That's all of you being good to me.

I enjoyed a long bike ride with my sweet 8 year old nephew on Saturday. We rode to the local Sonic for lunch (grilled cheese sandwich and french fries) and then back again later for ice cream!! I enjoyed it, but my heart swelled when he just blurted out, "this is the best day of my life"! That just MADE MY DAY!!! He's such a little sweetie too!! Great thread by the way!!
