Saturday long time coming
Life has been so busy. Blessed as we are with each other, good friends, children that I am so proud of, life sometimes can get in the way.
Two of our daughters are getting married. One in Jan, one in April. Both are floating around, as only new love can make one float. Both of our future sons-in laws are great guys. We don't see one of them much, his work hours are pretty crazy. Sometimes I think he just doesn't like us, but I think really it is his work. We have known him for a couple of years, and saw him pretty often until our daughter moved in with him.
The other one we see often, and the more we see him, the more we like him. Blessed are the parents with great in laws.
Since August I have been in Atlanta and Munich, and may be in Texas before the end of the month. The house is trashed. Well, not trashed, but not the way I want it to look. Today I am cleaning a bit. I clean, then sit, then clean. Can't afford to wear my self out as I still tire easily, but not as easily as two months ago.
To do something good for me, I joined weight watchers. So, 32 lbs to go. If I don't put myself first, no one else will.
I find I don't think of breast cancer as often, but I still think about it daily. It creeps in, insiduous, Still there are some things I cannot do, but I can do more every day.
Last weekend was so busy. We met Tims parents and they are really nice people. I also had the privilage of going with Rose to her first wedding dress fitting. She looked radiant. We had lunch at Panaras.
I came home, and was telling Larry about it, and teared up. Tried to blame it on hormones, my catch all for emotions, but he caught me!
Said"Could it just be that you are sentimental?" Of course that is why. I know we did something Sunday, but I forget what, just that it was busy.
Life is good, life is a blessing. Each day is a gift. Yesterday, I just wanted a salad for dinner. Larry wanted food. I offered him some Marie Callender dinners, salmon, and a couple other things. Nothing would do.
So, irritated, I went to Wendy's to pick up a burger for him. I was Irritated. About half way to Wendys, a short drive,I was thinking of my mum and her trip with her sister to New Hampshire. I remembered how mum and dad would travel. They loved traveling, just seeing new places. Then my father became ill and died. I thought how mom must have missed dad on her trip. It occured to me that if Larry died, I would long to be able to pick up a burger for him. Good dose of gratitude. I came home with a different attitude.
He doesn't ask for much, and he gives so much. So, big deal, pick up a burger. Just takes 5 minutes, and the time I spent being irritated was an eye opener for me.
