Random Thoughts

I know I should do better at posting here but I just can't write if I don't feel I have anything to say... Right now I have thoughts on a couple of different things so just gonna ramble a bit.

MY FRIENDS:
I have been fortunate to have the most wonderful friends. I'd like to take the time now to tell you all how much I love you and appreciate you and your friendships. YES the friendships might all be different. We might all be at different levels but each one of you mean something very special to me. I don't need to list names, you know who you are just know I love you. I get insecure sometimes! I'm human! I've made mistakes as we all have from time to time but my mom always told me that you can count your true friends on one hand. The older I become, the more I see this is true. Even when there is a difference in opinion or misunderstanding, true friends always find their way back. For those of you who have made your way back into my life I'm so blessed and grateful!

MY HUSBAND
We're getting ready to fight a battle we've unfortunately fought before. CANCER! I've been with Tim since 1982. We met at a church function then and here we are today. I've been married to him 20 years this April 8. He had skin cancer years ago at which time he went to UVA and needed plastic surgery to repair his nose. Now he has found a place behind his ear which we had a biopsy done on this past Friday. The results came in which said this too was skin cancer BUT might have underlying melanoma so more tissue needs to be removed. Once again he will need a plastic surgeon so the scarring will be minimal! One step at a time... One day at a time... and I'm putting my faith where it goes. Miracles happen every day

MY CHILDREN
Have you ever looked at your children and thought "WHO are you and what have you done with my child?" Well that has happened with Heather, my 16 year old. She's always been a tom boy. She's rather go out and play football with the boys then be bothered with doing make up and picking out prom dress LOL WELL she announced to me about 2 weeks ago she wanted her NAILS done!!! UHMM you want your WHAT???????. So we had a girls day out and got our nails done and went and got her class ring ordered. Another big milestone and another small step toward womanhood! She's gone from this defiant child to a pretty cool young lady to just hang with. OH YEAH she still has her moments but they get fewer. Krista who is 9 has the personality of a comedian! She can find a way to make me laugh when sometimes it seems impossible!! My children are absolutely priceless to me

OK I guess that's it for now... I can't think of anything else to comment on but wanted to catch up on things.
HAPPY ST PATTY"S DAY everyone!

Sweetie...
I know... and I love you back.:)
You're not going to be alone with what you have to face with Tim, you know I, and all of your true friends, will be here for you and hold you up, if we need to, every step of the way.
God bless you always, my friend..
