Just an Update
Mar 15th
Just the Facts: Nesting continues. Two doctor visits planned this week: my surgeon and plastic surgeon.
Details: This will be an exciting week. They all are lately! Tomorrow Tracy and I meet with my surgeon again. I have quite a list of questions that I have accumulated. Poor guy! Thursday we meet with the plastic surgeon for the first time. I’m looking forward to meeting him and hope he is going to work out right for us.
Lately I’m doing a lot of nesting. The pantry is straight and the refrigerator is clean. My closet has been overhauled. I note that Tracy has begun cleaning out the garage as well. That’s mostly because we need to fit a lot of my studio items in there for storage. The guest bedroom is next on my list, and if the nesting urge continues, I’ll tackle the kids’ rooms. That would be big. 
Prayer Requests: Please pray for my sweet Olivia today. She is feeling uncertain and needs peace and comfort. It’s just not enough for me to tell her that I’m OK. (I get that!) Mitchell seems to be doing well, but pray that his confidence and secure feelings continue.
Other: I’m on a mission to find some kind of pink ribbon thing to put in my yard or mailbox or something. I need everyone around me to know I’m fighting this fight. Is this in the name of cancer awareness? Well, kind of, but in all honesty, I have to say that’s not the main reason. I think I just want everyone to know! Maybe it’s so they’ll understand if I turn up one day wearing a scarf on my head, or if I’m seen plodding to my mailbox looking like I’ve been beat up. If you see me out there, waive or give me the thumbs up. I’ll know that you know the deal, and I’ll be thankful.
This Should Say it All

My first "pink ribbon" thing
I received this awesome hat as a gift from my neighbors. They actually brought me an incredible basket full of all kinds of treats and surprises. The hat was part of it. This gift represents the generosity and kindness and support that I am receiving from so many places. I am truly overwhelmed.
Now look at me. Do I look worried? Scared? Bummed out? Sick? I don’t think so, and you shouldn’t see that in the picture because I am none of those things. I wish I didn’t have this monster to tame, for my husband’s sake and my children’s sake, and the rest of my family and friends’ sake. AND because there are LOTS of better things to do with my time. But I can do it, and I’m ready.
