I am also a little behind on talking about all of the wonderful things I have received in the mail.
This week brought the most amazing gift from a group at my best buddy Laura's church. They have a group who puts together "chemo caddies" for chemo patients. It is full of the most amazing assortment of things.. I am sure I have still not uncovered everything but it is a tote bag (handmade with a personalized name tag inside) mine is orange (of course) it had a blanket, a neck pillow, candy, gum, slipper socks, game books, colored pencils, a smaller bag with all kind of lotions and toiletries in it, some earrings (blue!), a journal, a hand crocheted prayer pocket with some inspirational messages, notepads, drink mixes, thank you cards, the list is endless. What an amazing gift from people who don't even know me. And I thank you Laura for submitting me for it.. I love you so much.
I also received an assortment of card and an envelope full of fun scarves, I think these are from my Aunt as they were mailed locally and came the same day as some cards from her too.
Been having lots of bone pain this weekend, so Bella and I are taking it easy today so we can go out tomorrow. The groomers for her and my sweet Emily's first middle school volleyball game tomorrow afternoon. So excited to see her play. I need my rest to cheer on all of my athletes! I am so lucky to have them in my life. They are a big reason for me to keep fighting.
And of course, I can not let today go by without remembering 9/11....there are just no words. But I will send a thank you to Randy..Laura's husband..who still serves in the reserves and left his family to serve in Afghanistan for all of the freedoms we enjoy every day.
