Pumpkin Patch Time

What a nice day we had at Pumpkin ville in Leesburg. I figured that even with low immunity, I would be relatively safe hanging outside with the fam at the Pumpkin Patch. So, after everyone returned from Church (I stayed home for that part) - Nana, Sophia, Dottie, and I took off for the Pumpkin Patch. Festivals are not really Jillian's favorite past time, so she chose to hand out with Dad and Pop for some Football and handyman work. :) We sure missed her though!

Here is a fun little Smile box we made about our day. The weather was perfect, the apple cider was tasty, and the zip lines were fast! Yeah!

A Thousand Mornings and Ben Franklin

SO....I decided to take on the challenge of working a modern version of Ben Franklin's schedule.Of course, I am not the first to have this fascination...thi...

Can you see the forest through the trees?

Today I am struggling to see the forest through the trees? In a matter of 2 hours, I now have the dates for my next surgery (metaport installation), my chemo class, and my first round of chemo. You would think I would be prepared and ready, since it is after all through a series of appointments and phone calls that I went to and made that brings us to these dates. However, I feel like I just ran into a brick wall with my bike. Suddenly, this is all real, again. I also hate to ask for help, thankfully, we are blessed with many who haven't seem to tire of our needs thus far. Next Wednesday I will get my port installed and on 9/10/10 I will begin my 12 week journey of squeezing the life out of my cells so that cancer doesn't stand a chance. It is funny, because it is time to get back to reality. The kids start school, at their new schools on 9/7 which is also the day I get back to work, at least part time. So, while we start our lives anew, in our new home with new schools, friend...
