my daughter just left after one week of fun feasting laughing cooking toasting.....I feel like nothing can go wrong when she is here. I could not possibly have CANCER when she is here.

I hate when the holidays are over....don't be silly girl....you will get back on track and start walking and working out and skiing.....it's just that blip when she is gone and cancer walks back through the door.

boohhhhooo mags

    Mags,
    I am sending you this hug from thousands of miles away and I hope it reaches you.

    I think after the holidays is a hard time for many of us. All three girls in our family, me, and our two daughters (13 and 16) were in tears yesterday. Of course as the mommy I had to keep it to myself but boy did those girls let it all hang out. :) Both girls were up early for some weird reason (5:15 and it is my week to sleep in) and now they are back asleep and I am wide awake.

    I am going to dig deep, pray, breath and then start moving. I'll think of you skiing and working out when I ride my bike today. We can do this together!

    Aloha,
    Kathleen

    ok
    ahhhh thanks guys....I am ok....Michelle you hang in there....I hope that goes well....you poor thing....enough already.

    when my daughter left for university about 10 years ago I could not go into her room without the tears spilling. this is a minor blip....and her fiance is wonderful. They are so happy together....they charged out of here this morning as happy as clams

    I think as I age that I enjoy the energy of youth even more. Having them around is just fun. We went to the movie the re-make of True Grit.....really really a great movie...

    thanks Ketz....I'm ok....just self-indulging ....

    Sadness won't last
    I am sure that the sadness you feel will pass as the days go by. Yes there is a certain let down after the holidays are gone. With that said we still have New Years to look forward to and 2011 in which I pray will be so much better than 2010. The ONLY good thing about 2010 was the birth of my son. I hope 2011 brings great joy to all of us.

    God Bless,

    Your daughter
    Your daughter sounds lovely. Especially so if she can make cancer go away, even temporarily. You are right, you will get back on track. You have New Year's to look forward to - are you doing anything special? And your daughter's wedding. Come + visit me sometime....

    Hi Mags
    We are staying home + having a quiet night. I have always enjoyed this the best; sometimes with a few close friends, sometimes just us. We usually try to cook something special. We were invited to a friends for a dinner party, but opted not to do it. For me it is really important to spend New Years Eve with people I love. And I absolutely hate it when people get drunk + silly - New Years Eve seems to be an excuse for that. Just give me a good meal + a nice glass of wine.

    fostering
    oh Tina that is so hard....it must really be difficult for you not being able to take the kids....I cannot even imagine how hard fostering must be......good for you for doing that. Before I retired I worked as a teacher and I know how important good foster care is to a child.....

    how did Jorge do??//

    Feeling Let Down
    There are days when all day that feeling is with me. It's not that something happened, it's just that blue feeling. Now that Christmas is over and all the hype has quieted down, it's kind of like it's over until next year. Love my Christmas decorations so always leave them up until week after New Year. Hope tomorrow you wake with a smile on your face.

    It was not my usual holiday
    It was not my usual holiday season. I was very tired and slept most of Sunday away, I stayed in bed until Monday. Hope next year I'm back...and that I am here. Dang Cancer!
