Easter was fun! The get-to-gethers on Saturday were great. The picinic was yummy, and turned out fine at Tuacahn. Even though I spend most of my waking hours there, I still liked being there on Saturday with y'all. I spent 12 hours there today...sigh. I had a list a mile long to get done today...before the big surgery.
So I was feeling blue the other day and went online to a "support group" for women who have the big C and/or the big H. It should be called support group for bitter angry women who want to swap horror stories! Needless to say, it did not cheer me up. I felt better today after a dear friend/co-worker told me his wife had what I have a year ago. She had surgery and zipped through recovery just fine. No problemo. So where are THOSE kind of stories?? Isn't that what support is all about? There needs to be a warning label or something!
So, back to Easter. Way fun, good times. It was great to see TBear's fam. They are so sweet, huggy and fun. I missed Tupins and crew and SewingGirl. (Cute, huh? I just made that one up! Maybe BerninaBabe?) FHE was really good! Standing ovation to TBear. I loved it. Because we had two big eating events on Saturday, we didn't have the usual Easter dinner at Mom's. Which is fine, but I have to say, I missed the ham and cheesy potatoes. I had choir practice early, so I left before WiiWizard was even up and didn't even get to wish her Happy Easter until we were at Church. When we got home, I asked her if she found her Easter basket. She looked surprised and said she thought that since she was 18 she didn't get one anymore (awwwwwwwww). She was so delighted to find it! I love those moments when she is more child than adult.
SewingGirl was gonna come stay with WiiWizard while I was up there, but no luck with her work schedule. I tell ya, its pretty heartless to not work for someone who has to help out her poor sick cancer-stricken sister! Geesh! Not sure what I'm gonna do now, but I better figure it out quick since I'm leaving tomorrow with the parents. Wish me luck!

My friend shared this with me and I thought I would pass it along.
Cancer is limited.
It cannot cripple love.
It cannot shatter hope.
It cannot corrode faith.
It cannot eat away peace.
It cannot destroy confidence.
It cannot kill friendship.
It cannot shut out memories.
It cannot silence courage.
It cannot invade the soul.
It cannot reduce eternal life.
It cannot quench the spirit.
It cannot lessen the power of the resurrection.
