Mailbox Surprise.

Card in the mail from my bestie . . . 

Oh.yeah.life.is.good.

Special Deliveries.

How could I be so blessed?  I have such an 

awesome wonderful support team!  When I 

went to my mailbox, there was yet 

ANOTHER card from one of my besties.  

While we are certainly loving every 

moment of our weekend, 

in the back of my mind is the fact that 

Mike's test results are cooking at the 

oncologist's office.  Part of me wants 

the good news of those results this 

moment and the other part of me, the part 

that is fighting with Mike's high blood pressure, 

does not evenwant a little tiny peak.  

Anyhow, our family will be faced with reality 

on Tuesday when we receive the results 

determining our Dad's continued participation 

in the clinical trial.  In the meantime, I 

continue to skip over to the mailbox, 

think about the sweet prayers and thoughts

 of our family and friends, and bury myself 

in the busyness of the comings and goings 

of each day.  

Here's to mailboxes, cards, prayers, good

thoughts, hugs, kisses, sunshine, 

singing . . .
