The word, prevention, drives me a little crazy. There is no, prevention, in #childhoodcancer.
Unless we are talking about the way we live in our habitat. Which has yet to be officially proven.
My daughter is going to despise me when she gets home. I'm gutting her room. It is depressing me, can't imagine how it makes her feel.
I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it.
I've got Badass friends. <3
Mommy The Hardass is back.
Gregory is reclaiming, too. He just stood up while peeing for the first time! Without assistance. The pride on his beaming face.
Have you seen my Zune? Lack of a my music player is driving me ca-ra-zzzyyy!

What's the most important thing you have learned these past two years?

This is a hard one to answer. I don't think I am far enough past it to really appreciate what I might have learned. I haven't gotten to the place that I am OK with learning at the expense of Gregory, the sibs and our family. I really don't think there is anything worth learning at their expense. Don't know if I will ever get there. Lesson, Reason & Gift are three of my most despised words, when it applies to Childhood Cancer.
I will admit to gaining PERSPECTIVE. Which is a double-edged sword. I appreciate the fact that the really simple things make me happy, I value them over everything. There are days when I would love to be able to escape into the land of ignorance. Just for a brief reprieve.
"Once you know better, you do better." is a hard thing to live up to. I now know better. It's the doing better, on a daily basis, that rattles my cage.

Ask me anything

Where do you get your glasses? I love them!

Garage sales & thrift stores. They are vintage, not reproductions. I just take them to my local ShopKo and they send them off with my prescription! They do a fabulous job!

Ask me anything

Daddy knows the way to this Mamas heart. Three pounds fresh coffee & a Starbucks gift card. Can you say Happy Hour Frap? I knew you could!
I'm going to OD on this Spiral Sliced Ham. Om...nom....nom.... At least I will go happy.
I'm beginning to realize that these women that I love sooooooo much, just might feel the same about me. Yes, I have issues. Dealing w/them.
Dude! Seriously? If your arm is already in a cast, jumping on a trampoline is not too smart! New neighbors have a trampoline.
