Monday night

well I did it. I followed the plan just right today. I am still not hungey. STILL. I only ate a chicken breast, no veggies for dinner. I wasn't hungry, so I didn't eat them. OMG! What a concept. I got home from work today, planted the flowers...I love them, then tried out a recipe out of the fast and easy SBD cookbook. Cauliflower soup, it sucked. I dumped it. I will keep pressing forward, I will try something else tomorrow night. Tomorrow I am going to walk, get dresssed, do my hair, and stay on the plan. I have a massage in the afternoon, Cassie's Christmas gift to me. It will feel great. I am alittle worried that now my knee doesn't really hurt as much has my calf does. I am going to get my x-rays done tomorrow also. Angelene will be in the office tomorrow, so good for me. Will call the 12 step number tomorrow also. It feels alittle odd to be so busy. A little uncomfortable, like why am not asleep. I think the next thing I want to do is to find some paint for the down stairs. that will keep me busy too.It does need to get done. I will try to stay busy at work also. good luck there. I need to sign up for a online class. I have the time, why should I be wasting it. Another good day.

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I miss them terribly, but at the same time I feel like this

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don

Dana Does Cancer

Good Morning! It's been a long time since I used this blog. I've decided that I had so much success using this blog as a tool to lose 100 pounds, I'm going to blog my way as I fight cancer To The Best of My Ability. Yep, it looks like I have rectal cancer. There is a 20 mm tumor in the old poop shoot. Just shows Heavenly Father has a sense of humor. Seems a fitting consequence for being an asshole for the first half of my life. (my two children will verify this) The good news it's not gone to the lymph nodes per the CT scan, I will get the results of a PET scan, along with a port for chemo Monday or Tuesday. And so it begins... I have every reason to be optimistic. It's still early. I'm still  going to need radiation and chemo to shrink the tumor and wait 5-6 weeks and have a resection, then more chemo is needed. I am grateful for health insurance, though I can't work for at least six months, maybe more. When I went to the surgeon on Friday he told me I
