Blessings Like Truffles

Each year, on July 31st, {my anniversary becoming cancer free} Larry takes me to tea. It is not always at the same place, but we always have tea. It is written in stone. Yesterday, we had tea at the Dallas Arboretum.

Time stops for a bit and we reflect on the past {seven years} years of living with cancer woven into our tapestry.

We had the best visit and shared many intimate thoughts. I do not know what my life would look like without My Larry in it.

Blessings, like chocolate truffles are meant to be savored and treasured.

May your blessings and truffles be many…

Love you beyond the moon.

The Calm

- robin

I just finished reading one of my favorite blogs.

The author, reminded me to just keep going.

No matter what.

No matter what happens in your life,

YOU alone are in control.

YOU can chose how you react

to the negatives in your life.

Photo: I have owned this BP thing for YEARS! Last week, I was told to start charting again.

Are you being a negative?

I know that I am being negative

and am trying to change that.

A few days ago, Lauren said:

You just never know what someone is going through.

I said:

And some people who are being rude,

might not know what we are going through.

Lauren totally agreed.

Isn’t this where we all try to be kind and respect others?

I am sorry to say,

I have been awful about this.

People who treated me like crap,

I just go, vanish. {no confrontation}

It feels great and my BP is responding in the best way.

My DR will be happy

and

my days are calm.

Yesterday, after Larry was finished working,

we drove to the country

and

played board games with Matilda.

After the games,

Larry and I drove home in the twilight.

I held his hand and we talked about many things.

Thank You God for my many blessings. Amen.

Love you.
