Why I Wore A Sweatshirt To My "Treatment"

Well I am off, well not this second, but I have to leave in 7, no, 6 minutes for my "treatment". I wanted to dress more comfortably but my khaki sweats just did NOT go with my black sweatshirt with the white stripes down the arms. I LOVE this sweatshirt. It says "LIFEGUARD" on the chest and on the butt. NO I don't think I have a cute bootay! I am too old and things are too saggy for that! I just like how warm it is, and after all when I were it apparently I can save people.

Maybe, today, I can be saved. In so many ways other than the obvious.

I am going to have TWO WEEKS to sit at home and THINK!!!!!

SCAREY!!!!

Miss Heidi's book will take me the first couple of day (I'm not known to be a fast reader). But I have some big decisions to make about my life and NONE of them include you guys, so take a deep cleansing breath in and out. GOOD!

Alright, me and my sweatshirt are off to be saved or do the saving. Either way. I need to be useful people!

April said...: Kristina-Thanks! I'm back, in spite of a few snafus! (welcome to my life)

Sarah-I don't know if your dad told you or not, but ask him! After we had our family reunion, I was diagnose with thyroid cancer. I haven't told a lot of people, but I guess I am now. Today I had to have a radiation treatment and will be radioactive for a couple of weeks.; January 16, 2009 at 10:02 AM

What They Are Doing Now.....

I am the mother of two awesome boys! One has recently returned from a mission for our church in Madagascar. Soon to be a Freshman in college.

The other is a Freshman in college and will be venturing out on a mission in the next year.

They have both brought me a lot of happiness and made me laugh! I am so blessed to have them in my life! They have had to go through things in life that some would feel are not fair, but they have not complained. They go through life with a smile on their face. They are a great example to me.

I am also the wife of an amazing man!!! Seriously! He does it all! He complains even less than my boys!!! I could not ask for a better companion than him. He is a great example to his sons. He works hard all week long, comes home and begins his work on our home and then continues to serve at our church. Yet, I do not feel neglected. He is there when I need him. He brings me lunch every day at work, he helps out at home, he loves me for me....what more can a woman ask for? Yep, I got him!!!
