Something Positive!

Great to hear, Debbie. Last night I met two women I'd been hearing about for months - one fighting ovarian and the other breast cancer. One of them is not far from you in treatment. She not only had on a purple cap, but she had tied the prettiest scarf around it for Christmas cheer. She was so much a part of the party, it was great to be around her. Thanks for sharing some of your struggles here, I felt more able to ask the right questions and cheer her on because of it.

I made it to the party today and took Joel, Shannon and Katie with me.
We got to go in a hot tub, a pool, and had a nice supper together.
Paige was thrilled to get her stable and corral from her Papa and I.
Her Mamas bday is in 5 days, so I also took her gift along. My brother and his dw also have birthdays in the next week so I got to deliver their gifts to them as well.

We all had a nice time. The roads weren't great, but I only slid around one time and have to admit that was the fault of my lead foot. lol

Greg had to leave for Kansas City, so didn't get to go with us, but he called and wished Paige a happy birthday so she understood.

I'm glad to be back home. But very glad we were able to go

Janet, I'm mid-way between Lacrosse and Eau Claire WI just 1/2 mile off of Hwy 53.
Our little village is too small to be found on most maps.

The nearest town is Whitehall... which is the county seat and has about 1600 people.

Tink, I'm glad that you "weathered" the storm so well. I was worried about you when I looked at the weather map. It looks like your electricity stayed on!!

Kate, I'm glad that all of your little goodies were a success at your party! It sounds like you had a good time.

Glad everything worked out for you weatherwise Tink. I just saw on this morning news that Maine is expected to get 20 inches of snow....I would pack up and head south for sure!

My positive for the day is my son told me he'd be careful before I had a chance to say anything to him..lol He's learning.

Positive for today is my son is okay after sliding his car into a ditch.

Hopefully he's also learned from this experience.
