    Makes me smile,

    A wonderful friend just moved back from Ohio. Things are not good with my Mom so She has become my mom. I've known her since 1975. She use to babbysit my husband so she is just right to be my MOM. Also my kids, my husband, and friends make me smile. Oh!! my Beagle Mollie too.

    Ofcourse my husband and family are number one!  I am just so happy to have survived bc and to still be NED that it makes me smile and happy every day of my life!  Unless you've walked in our shoes, you cannot realize how precious every day, every moment is to be free of cancer.

    Love reading everyone's comments and thanks Susie for another great post!

    Lots of Things

    Lots of things make me smile/happy:

    • my husband
    • my grandkids (they were here for about seven hours today) -- so full of life
    • my friends
    • my faith
    • my home
    • a good day, whether at work or at home
    • having a sense of humor -- sometimes I don't even say what is running through my mind, as I am thinking that that particular thought is funny only to me; I like a good joke.

    I could go on. 

    Just spending time with my

    Just spending time with my husband!  Today was perfect!  He brought me breakfast in bed, we just laid around and watched movies, went for a short walk, laid around some more.. LOL  All I need is him to make me happy!

    Cinnamon, my 8 year old

    Cinnamon, my 8 year old cocker spaniel just amazes me

    snuggles with brian

    the flock of turkeys that come to visit our yard

    the variety of birds that come to the bird feeder ....their colors, mystery, and sounds

    boating and fishing...including ice fishing

    gardening...vege garden and flowers

    snowflakes falling from the sky

    the feel of my arms floating in a lake

    It was/is nice to read what makes others smile

    taking pictures..my laptop is loaded with them

    seeing my neighbors, fred and barb, mostly in the summer...

    screaming in fear of silly things in the garden...like when the toad jumped out and i jumped, screamed and laughed....laughing when i am adjusting the lawn sprinkler in the garden and i get soaked

    having a big old draty house with lots of history instead of the second floor two bedroom apartment i lived in for 16  years

    searching my family tree

     

    Talk about happy!  My Sister

    Talk about happy!  My Sister called this morning and is going to try and fly here next month to spend some time with me!  Crossing my fingers that this will work out for us!  I miss her and want to see her! 

    That put a big smile on my face today!

    Good thread

    What makes me happy:

    my 3 guinea pigs. My cat. Writing. Listening to meaningful songs. Napping. Eating soups. Eating fruits. Climbing trees. Green trees. Nature. Animals. OMG, so many things! Life can be wonderful if we remember what we have. I sometimes forget it.

    There hasn't been a lot lately to make me smile or to be happy.  

    I do enjoy seeing those incredible colors of our sun rising over the ocean.

    It does bring me a measure of contentment.

    New Babies Are Joy

    A new baby is always a reason to smile and since it is your new grandson a reason to be immensely happy.

    He is the same size as my youngest son was at birth.  That is a good size who will be able to sleep through the night very soon.

    Mine had lots of hair too. 

    Enjoy, enjoy and enjoy this new blessing!

    You are one remarkable sister

    You are one remarkable sister Donna for making your hats.  I want you to know that I've seen several remarks on here of sisters that have received them and love them.

    You crochet them, right?  Does it take long to make them?

    Thanks Kristin,
    Each hat

    Thanks Kristin,

    Each hat takes about 45 minutes to make and yes they are hand crocheted. I have 64 done right now and I will make 6 more before next week so that I will have 70. I see my onc on the 7th of March at the University of Miami, Sylvester Cancer Treatment Center in downtown Miami. There is a rather large CTU there and I will begin giving my hats away there. Next will be the UM CTU where I took my treatments in Kendall. Lastley I donate to La Liga which is a CTU for people who don't have insurance or the money to pay for their treatments. They are so appreciative there. They all want to touch me or hold my hand to say thank you.

    I just love doing this.

    I have donated hats twice to Miami Childeren's Hospital CTU. I don't get to see the kids there because they are all immune compromised and I would need their parents permission but the hats I make to go there are all special. I put little lady bugs or frogs or butterflies on them. Or I make the whole hat in fun fur. I also add little buttons with inspirational sayings like "Hope" and such.

    Did I mention that I love doing this.

     

    Hugs

    Donna
