    I am grateful to have spent the day with my mother, sister, brother, and our families. It's the first time we've all been together in years.

    Red, thanks for the reminder of the Great White North sketches. They were hilarious! It's difficult to watch DD go thru so much, not happy about the last-minute SNAFU. Yesterday must have been difficult that she didn't participate in graduation (I had been thinking of a little family party, but realized my mom and dad would have a difficult time)., something told me to hold off.

    Day 144 (5/24):  So very grateful for BCO friends: ones that call and we talk for hours; those that support me everyday - like you all - and accept me with warts and all! Thankful for the friendships we make along the road of life: especially those who have helped me in times of need and those who allow me to pay it forward and be of assistance. Have been thinking of one sweet BCO lady who sought me out a while ago, has been happily living life and now in time of a bit of stress (and we all know I've experienced a lot of that!) she's asked for some help. So easy to provide support with all different kinds of technology available.

    Good morning all and hope everyone is having a restful but enjoyable long weekend.  I have been reading all the posts, but t in one of those down, feeling sorry for myself cycles, so not posting myself.  Actively trying to get out of my funk this AM     Grateful for everyone here.  My best friend's son was married last evening, beautiful wedding and much fun.  Grateful to see the one's I knew as babies growing into such wonderful adults. 

    Moving out of my funk, kicking and screaming, going to finish painting my dining room

    May 25 Day 145

    Today I am grateful for my first game of golf of the season. I sucked. I am still exhausted and I got home 7 hours ago. But I golfed!

    Day 145 (5/25): today I am grateful that DH was in a decent mood, even washed the race car which needs to be sold. Happy DD has the day off tomorrow and has a fun day planned. It was fun going to the dollar store to get a bunch of activities for mom (easy puzzles, craft sets, card games). Planning to see them next week and shop dad how to work with her.

    Okay I'm jumping in on this one too! 

    Day #1-  I'm luck enough to have a very strong support system both in real life and online, family, friends, acquaintances, and these boards where I can just be me and not a cancer diagnosis

    I too am grateful for my dad who served in World War 2 and made it home to live a long life. He passed away last July at the ripe old age of 89. He was a wonderful man.

    Welcome Chaos!

    Day 146 (5/26): Grateful for all the women and men who have served and are currently serving to keep us free. 

    Today, I am grateful to meet a couple friends (and daughters) to see Mary Poppins. Felt good to get out. Great BBQ dinner. Looking forward to a fun week.

    Welcome ChaosRains. Cute moniker.

    Today I am grateful for a delicious dinner... bbq pork chops and Chinese fried rice (homemade). It's the first time I've made it, so I was pleased when it turned out so well.

    Keep your chin up Onco, they take a long time to heal. Don't rush it too much or you might undo the good you've done so far.

    Pink, aww. What a nice thing to say. 

    May 28

    Today I am grateful for babies. Was just informed that a coworker is expecting again after a 10 year pause in baby making. She has 2 already that are 12 and 10. Boy and girl. The family is split down the middle regarding the wish for another boy or another girl.
