Now what???

Amanda has finished her last radiation treatment this past Monday! Hurray! I imagine a year of your life with medical treatments being a priority, then your done and now where does one start getting back into a routine. I don't think that any one can just pick up from last year. The changes in ones' body, the experience of fighting cancer and the personality change as well. It kind of reminds me of after holidays, the meal is finished, the presents have been opened, the tree taken down, everything packed away. Now what??? Just take time to heal.

I received some Thank-you cards in the mail from receipients from the bandannas I sent off. I want to say Thank-you back for taking the time to send a note.

I am just trying to make this Halloween a bit more fun for my grandchildren this year. I made them cute seasonal joke books (Q: What kind of instrument does a skeleton play? A: tromBONE) with pun on words and a 'broom' bag filled with special goodies. Made my grandaughter a Star Trek shirt yesterday, she thinks it's perfect and that is fine with me.

I am slowly getting back into quilting (winter project) along with making one to auction/sell tickets to fundraise Walk for the Cure next year, binding quilts for Serendipity ( a group of women who make quilts for kids in need) through the local guild here.

I plan to make Christmas a little extra special this year for my family, last year seemed it just came and went with really no special effort on my behalf. I want to bake cookies, play Christmas carols, light touring, attend the tree festival, go and listen to chiors sing with the family.

Blessings to you from me!
