       No internet over the weekend. Hey, have to find excuses where I can. It was a long weekend. Kept Pop till Monday night because of the holiday.
       Ever wonder why life is the way it is? Sure we direct the majority of things that happen, so we are why life is the way it is. But what about the outside influences? How do we control things that we don't control?
I have a friend who would like to pack up and walk out of their life. Start over fresh somewhere else. Sounds like a feasible plan but what about the life they leave behind? The people? The places? And would the things they don't control follow them to their fresh start? I have no answers,only questions. I understand why my friend feels like flyin the coop. This idea has probably crossed many a mind out there more than once. Some people act on it. Some people don't. Doesn't make it a good or bad decision. Just a life choice brought on by life throwing to many chit bombs at the same time. A body can only duck and dodge for so long, eventually we get hit smack in the head. Ouch!!!!!!!!!! Such is life sometimes, sucky.

                Teresa stayed the night with us. We spent half the day at home cleaning and the other half at the VA with Pop. Dropped in on a get together of some of her old pool hall buddies.Hunted a newspaper because today is Grandmas 84th birthday and her daughter had it announced in the paper. Edward called her and we all sang happy birthday to her. Naturally she laughed at us. The guys cooked supper. Grilled chicken with veggies.It was yummy. It's been a good day. : )

                    Trying something new. Don't know if I'll stick with this or not, but how about at least a line a day for the next year. Starting today. A line consisting of at least two or more sentences.
                     My oldest sister is dealing with her treatments fairly well. Chemo sucks any way you look at it but we've all been fortunate with the side effects. Hair loss of course, moderate nausea. The steroids have the worst effects. We glow red, give rosy cheeks new meaning. They used to keep me awake for 24 hrs. after my treatments. That was the worst for me. General fatigue plagued all three of us. And what are the odds that three sisters would all be diagnosed with breast cancer. All in an 16 yr. time frame. I'll have to google that. I have to laugh to keep from crying and some days I still ball like a baby but she will survive this. We will all move forward from this and it will soon be a distant memory. Cancer leaves scars on the body and on the inside as well. Try as you might you are not the same. There is more to you and less to you all at the same time.
