Day 154 // ’Twas the Night Before Chemo
'Twas the night before chemo, when all through the house,
None of our dogs were stirring, maybe if they saw a mouse.
Day 152 // Traditions
Traditions were abundant around the holidays growing up. Oh, do I so miss them.
Day 144 // Counting My Blessings
The secret to happiness is to count your blessings while others are adding up their troubles.
Day 139 // Just Because
As we cuddled in bed on Sunday evening, a commercial appeared on television for a cancer treatment center. Tears trickled from my eyes as David gently placed his hand on mine.
Day 114 // Serendipity
Often we are looking for something and find something else - realizing that what we have found is more suited to our needs than what we thought we were looking for.
Day 103 // Time
Four months ago on this date I awoke at 3:45 AM not to teach a class but instead to gather myself (along with hubby and stuff) and head to the hospital for a surgery that would forever change me.
Day 99 // Forgiveness
We've all been hurt by the actions or words of another at some point. And the wounds can leave us with lasting feelings of anger, bitterness or even vengeance.
Day 91 // Homework, homework, homework!
Algebra test, Social Studies test, English paper, Science lab - I'm pulling out what little hair I have! True to form with homework, everything is piled on just days before fall break.
Day 87 // My Light
"Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times. If one remembers to turn on the light." - Albus Dumbledore
