October 1st......Brrrr!

Yikes did it get cold last night! I actually had to add to blanket to our bed and now I want DH to get ALL the AC's out and put away for the season. It's amazing how fast the weather here in New England can change and once it does, it's cold! I am NOT at ALL a fan of Winter or cold...so I really do not like the cold coming in. It was only 45 degrees when I got up this morning....Brrrr. I actually had to break down and turn on the heat for about a half an hour, simply to get the chill out of the house. The sun is out now and hopefully it will warm up.

I also wanted to remind everyone that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I hope that everyone will take time to give a Big HUG to any of your friends or family who are survivors or are currently battling this miserable illness! I hope this month it will also help to remind us to have our yearly mammograms and do our monthly self-exams. Early detection is the key to win this batter! Hugs to my Mom and my two friends, Kimberly and Kim, who are ALL survivors! I pray you ALL will continue to be cancer free and never had to go through the battle again.

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
