I miss small town life. How will he gain any independence?
Ray is getting ready for Santa too, he just put a toy together and I am sure he need the rum and cookies that have been laid out for Santa.Santa has discriminating taste.
This year is due to end with a fizzle for us, since coming into the new year we expect better health news and a big sign of relief to come. After meeting with the doctors on Friday and hearing about my aggressive cancer that wants to spread. Damn I thought thyroid cancers behaved better and knew their place. I am on a ridiculous low iodine diet that is really putting a kink in my eating habits this holiday yet the wine consumption remains steady and is allowed. Wow I have bent the truth into believing it is doctors orders that i have only roughage and wine. I have lost 6 pounds already and that means the fat farm trip wont happen in feb as I will not need the trip to Utah to hike and play as I did last year on only 1000 calories daily. ...maybe after I plump up when I become hypothyroid. The radioactive iodine treatment will happen in mid to late Jan as I need some family support since I will be away from the klids for over a week. Well I need to not worry about them, they are resilient and handle things better than I.
This holiday season is a time to reflect and forgive others and ourselves and become the people we think we are, yet different then how others see us. We can give to charities we can bake bread we can be excused. My favorite saying "we judges others by their actions yet we ourselves would like to be judged on our intentions." I must act as I intend, this is my New Years wish I plan to fulfill.
Merry Christmas and I hope I don't get coal.
No worries, Santa ran out of coal after he left my house ;0) Im at a loss for the perfect thing to say, so here goes, you are a beautiful woman and mom, stay strong and don't give up because you are loved and needed and have a lot more to do and share and lots more amazing moments to experience, basically you are bigger than this thing you are battling!! Xoxo
ReplyDeleteIf Santa gave you coal, in a week, you would have a diamond! I love you and am praying for you and that amazing family of yours!
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle,
ReplyDeleteI haven't been keeping up with blogs and only just began blogging again myself. So sorry to hear about your run in with the "C" word. A very dear friend of mine with thru the same cancer when her children where both under the age of 5. She is 100% in recovery and her kids are now both reaching puberty. I will keep you in my prayers for a speedy recovery, your attitude is perfect. ((((HUGS))))
