Hi, I'm Pinkie, and I'm a Facebook Addict

I absolutely love Facebook. It is the number 1 waste of time ever! What a great way to keep up and learn more about your friends.

Today is a good day. I met with my CP's last night and that's always a big boost to the mood. If laughter helps you live longer, they've added at least 10 years to my life so far (and I need all I can get!!) For those that don't know, my breast cancer metastisized to the bone and is now incurable. Don't worry yet, though. It's been 3-1/2 years since we found tiny (barely enough for a definitive biopsy) and there's been no growth. God has my back and my friends keep me young. My family loves me no matter what, and my husband is devoted like no other man will ever be. I go to a wonderful church and *love* my family there.

Because of the cancer, I was able to quit work and go on SS disability. Now I pursue the things I love most - writing, church, family (esp. kids and grandkids!), and my household. I'm not a great housekeeper, but I love what I do. As Rick Warren says, God never wastes a hurt!

Speaking of housekeeping and writing - I need to get busy. How is it I never get caught up???

Love ya!

Purple Funk

I've always loved that expression: purple funk. It's so descriptive of the dark clouds of dissatisfaction that periodically shadow our lives. For me, it usually means that someone in the periphery of my life is not behaving as I wish they would. *sigh* Darn these people for having their own opinions and thoughts! hehehe!

Not too much else going on. This is oncologist week as well as treatment time. I also have a visit to the GI specialist tomorrow. I've been doing well keeping up my weight training so hopefully the veins in my arms will be more accessible than last treatment. While I was in the hospital they all decided to run and hide, and can you blame them? I've also regained my PRO status in Wii Tennis (just barely!). I've worked my way up to playing 45 minutes now, so I'm doing good.

Yesterday was my last day on the steroids, and the side effects are already starting to disappear. I wasn't sure if it would take time to get them out of my system or not. Thank goodness.

Better run and get my last tasks done before time to sleep!

Always,
~pinkie

Forgot this part...
