have alittle faith

At work. So far, so good. However it is only 7:30 am. Still plenty of time for the shit to hit the fan. Feeling better. Less upset by the whole thing. I have decided to just act like nothing happened. It's for the best.

I have to really believe that no matter what happens I will be okay! Working on having that kind of faith. Went for a long walk this morning with my good friend and got a blessing from her hubs. I felt alot better after that.

I stayed home instead of going to church or to my daughter's, thinking I would sleep. I did not get to sleep, just sat there and stewed and freaked out, and yes sadly I grazed most of the day. Not anything bad, just grazed. Didn't go for a walk yesterday, but I did go for a bike ride. Not long, but it was still better then nothing.

Hope everyone has a good Monday. Keep the mood and the food real.......have alittle faith!

    No matter what happens, you will be okay. You will. You have your faith, your family, us and YOU. I know it's hard not to stew, but don't let their issues rob you of your peace.

    Hugs to you!

    Sometimes a good long walk, or in your case bike ride, is just what you need when you have a lot on your mind. It's a great way to get out of the house and have a change of scenery.

    Sometimes a little faith is all you've got to see you through during this journey. Thanks for the reminder...

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
