Just Another Day ...



It is one of those ordinary days when life seems really boring. Let's face it, there are a lot of those days in everyone's life. Of course, for the person who has faced a serious illness and death, they have learned that every day is precious. So don't get me wrong, even though it is a boring ordinary day... it is still a precious day.

My grandson, Chance, is on his way to Portland today for his next-to-the-last chemo treatment. He was suppose to already have had that treatment, but they had to postpone it because his blood count was so low. He had a transfusion and now he is good to go. After almost a year of chemo and surgeries, he is glad to be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. He hopes to start school in September.



Check out Chance's caringbridge site... he has some new pictures.

JR is in Southern CA getting a load of whatever and will be heading up north. I guess he will drop by here for a few hours or a day. I sure hate this job he has and that he is never home. Sad :o(

I'm still not sleeping at night. Anxiety is a constant for me as I'm still going through medication withdrawels. I am happy to tell you that it is getting better and my back is a lot better these days!!!!

I posted a fall picture at the top as fall has sorta come to our area. We still have days that feel like summer, but the nights are getting quite chilly. It does feel like back-to-school weather.

Hope all is well with all of you. My blog friends are soooo very important to me and I love ya all.

Your friend - Annie :o)

Wonderful picture--my favorite season is fall. I love the rich, warm colors, the crispness in the air, and the sounds of harvest. I hope that Chance gets into school in September. That will be so very wonderful for him.

Annie you might try Valerian Root to help you sleep. It's an herb, and you can find it at Wal-Mart. I'm so glad your back is feeling better, and that Chance is doing well also. We all have those boring days, so I understand what you mean *hugs*

I'm so glad that your back is getting so much better! That's awesome! I remember when it was so painful for you. Sorry to hear that your husband is gone so much of the time on the road. That must be difficult for you. I will check out Chances website today for the new pictures.

Aloha Annie. Thanks for the post. I went to the website (I was already a member due to a friend in Montana who had a accident and is in the hospital in Billings) so I left Chance a message. Hope that was ok. Hugs & hope your smiling!!

Stopped by Chance's CaringBridge site yesterday, and I'm glad he is nearing the end of his treatments. What a brave little guy and what a super family!! My prayers are with you all. Glad you are feeling better, too, sweetie! Take best care....

First of all glad that Chance is almost ending his chemo.
as for me,boring days yes,but when I wake up every morning
alive and continue what I am doing this is a blessing to me.
Annie,change your thinking.Boring is what you make of it.
Does not have to be.Your back as you say is feeling better.'
That is a good sign and we will continue wishing Chance the
best.The name says it all.Chance this is good.
