Day 71

Hey! Good evening my dear lil lambs. How’s everybody this beautiful Saturday evening?

I’m very freaked out about the nuclear event in Japan but I’m going to put my fears aside and tell you all about my lovely day. Chuck got up early and fed the kitties so I could sleep in until noon. It was the first real sleep either of us has had in weeks. It was nice to rest our heads without the fear of wondering whether or not my cancer had spread. I still have surgery to get through next week but this weekend is about rejoicing and relaxing.

We took a ride to buy our Saturday soft pretzels and tomato pie from Liscio’s and decided to eat our pretzels in the park while we waited for Liscio’s to make our tomato pie. It was so nice to be out in the beautiful sunshine and cool air. We sat and ate our soft pretzels at a picnic table before walking over to the duck pond, where a flock or two of gigantic geese seem to have come to visit.

As we were leaving to head over to Liscio’s to pick up our tomato pie and run a few errands this big fella stopped to give Chuck the goose version of stink eye. *laughs* I guess he was mad we didn’t bring anything to feed them.

You had to see these geese to believe them. They were huge. I’ve never seen geese this big. The one walking next to us as we walked back to our car was at least knee high on me. (not that that’s saying much, but I digress.)

My big victory for today was swallowing my first Tylenol since choking on one last April. I know, I know a grown adult should be able to swallow a pill on her own and I could until choking last year scared me. But tonight I put my big girl pants on and swallowed a Tylenol all on my own. *laughs* So you see everything does have a silver lining, my irritated sinuses brought about an opportunity to confront my fear and conquer it. *laughs* Chalk one up for the Fraidy Cats.

Alright then I’m going to end here, turn the news off and continue watching my way through My So-Called Life on Netflix. Thank you so much for stopping by to read my daily ramblings. (((hugs))) & *smooches* and all that good stuff …

Love,
