Good morning, my beautiful ABBERS!
I am up early today, so I thought I would get this going.
I haven't been here too much the past week. With the 4th, and all the tourists that come into town, I have been up to my ears!
It was a fantastic Holiday and even better hangover-free! I kept it very mellow and stayed clear of most of the activities. After getting DD situated with her Friends (she doesn't want to hang with Mom - sniff, sniff), I came home and relaxed. She did keep coming to check in and give me secret hugs and to tell me she loves me, so I was very happy! I was also happy to have the down-time.
I have been a bit down, but am trying not to read anything into it. I know that my emotions and mind are reeling from being stripped naked of AL. AL is a nice veil for covering up issues that need attention, but maybe to difficult to deal with. I will go into later, but for now, I am just taking it easy and taking it one day at a time.
I do have one very tough thing I am dealing with. My best friend's pancreatic cancer is back. We found out two months ago. She has been cancer free for 4 years, but it came back in her liver. I have had a very difficult time trying to stay positive, but I think I am in denial about the whole thing. She leaves tomorrow today for Seattle to get her treatment. She goes in tomorrow. This damn tumor is right next to an artery, so it has been very difficult to figure out how to get at it. Anyway, it is a long story, so I won't go into it, but I would love any special prayers for her. She is a very special and wonderful person.
OK, my lovelies.. I must run. I have a HUGE day at the spa.
Oh, and I'm on day 18! My first goal is 21 days. I always remember that it takes 21 days to make a new habit, so that is my first milestone.
Have a wonderful day!!
