Pondering Mortality

[vagabondage]

It's what I've been doing a lot of lately, pondering mortality. It's funky. I have no idea how long I have to live, I just know that it is considerably shorter than it was before I got cancer. A year? Two? More? Who knows. Sometimes this makes me sad, sometimes it just confuses me. I've never expected to live a long life because of the many bad,

Oh god, you have my utmost sympathy about the hot flashes and all the rest of the ladyparts bullshit. On top of everything, that must be hideous.

Yay for new stove, though! And Indiana Beach sounds like a hoot--I'd never heard of that before, so now I'm gonna go search for it and read about it. I love finding out new things like that, Americana stuff.

Take care of yourself, honey, and spend that SS money on something fun! {{{hugs}}}

Thanks, I'm hoping that very soon the lady parts will give up and die. :)

I'm hoping for a fun filled labor day weekend, and wish you the same.

I'm so sorry your ladyparts are giving you so much grief. Like you needed more bullshit in your life. UGH. Ladystuff is just the fucking worst -- the only good thing about menopause is bidding Aunt Flo goodbye forever, but in return you get all sorts of unexpected bullshit to deal with, so it never fucking ends. /o\

It's so cool that you guys are going to Indiana Beach! I used to go there as a kid (friends had a family cabin right on Shafer Lake) and loved it. Hope it's a blast! Btw, if you've never been to Indiana Dunes State Park, it's SO worth a stop -- it's one of the most beautiful beaches on Lake Michigan. I have lots of fond childhood memories of that place, too. ♥

Being in present time is so difficult these days, with all the distractions and stresses of modern life, but it's something try very hard to do. Not to go all new-agey on you, but it's a wonderful feeling to push away all the crap and look around you, and just... be.

Whoops, excuse me, I have to go give a treat to a Steller's jay. :D

Isn't Indiana Beach just awesome? :)

Ya know, I have a tattoo of Buddha on my arm to remind me to live in the moment and "just be". He helps, but lately this stuff is just making my head spin a little. I'll muddle through.

There are the ultra-cutesy kiddie roller coasters, right? Have fun!

[vagabondage]

LOL! Yeah, maybe I'll try to stuff myself into the kiddie coaster. :)

Dude, I'm so sick of it!

i've often thought the world would be a better place if everyone could savor life the way that only life threatening illnesses make you savor life.
