LIFES A BEACH!

Lovely day today in our neighborhood.

OK one more...

Hi girlies...

Had my last date with the red devil today.  CHEMO is DONE!!!  My white cells were just (by .1) high enough to have treatment.  Well this phase of the journey is over - YAHOO...

Going back to lay down - stomach is icky - head is icky --- i am icky....

talk to you all soon.  ((((((Hugs))))))))))

Checkum........

Thankyou for letting us know.

Arm is better already..........thanks for asking Sharon. Taught me how to massage and wrap. I think I'll be able to live with that hugs and prayers for a new pup. Just go ahead and get the pup, then let DH choke....he will get un-choked soon Puppies win your hearts so fast.

Congrats to Checkum!! whooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo

so glad to hear that you've already experienced some relieft, Coonie. I've had to have PT for two different issues since my dx (neither really connected to the dx) and both times they literally saved my sanity. they are healers in our very midst.

You'll be happy to know that I did indeed stop today and "smelled the roses" by watching history unfold right before my very eyes. As you may remember, my dad shares the very day of his birth with MLK -- and perhaps because of that, my father brought us up to work for justice..... I remember "walking" in the civil rights marches when I was in elementary school. To think that my dad has lived to see this day, when MLK watches from above, was enough to bring to tears repeatedly.

What a new era....................  will continue watching tonight as things unfold.

Checkum...... when you're feeling better & you get back here to the beach, you'll see we're all here cheering for you:

Whoa........... what's he been taking??

Congrats Checkum !!!!!!!!!!!! I know how it feels to get to the end of that journey. Will you have Rads too?

Lisa, beautiful pictures. In fact I love all our pictures here on our beach, and the fact that we share all the joy and the pain together.

Faith I was right there with you as I watched our nation change. As our new president spoke I felt pride in the USA. I also felt Gods presents. Which touched me.

I pray that the little children grow up knowing they can  achieve great things if they put forth the effort. And that the color of ones skin has nothing to do with weather you are deserving or not.

I remember way back when my church had a balcony for blacks. Even as a child I felt it was wrong. Our church never used it in the years I went there, but just knowing the history of it's purpose upset me. I was no more than maybe 7 when I learned about the use of the balcony. ( That church burned down and one was built without the balcony)

I can still remember feeling very sad . And I was seeing this through a child's eyes. I have never liked people hurting others because of there differences . I just always have loved people.

Sorry to go on and on...........I'm a very high spirited person. And I'm a talker.( Boy that is an understatement...LOL)

 Who knows, one of our granddaughters may be the first woman to achieve the job of commander and chief. I hope I live to see that history. But she must be the right woman. And I'm sure she will come.

Today I felt at peace.......

A new day dawns, it is special, like all the rest.

Hugs to all.

Let bring out our sand toys to build a castle..........SOMEBODY has a birthday
