Thank you so much for sharing my happiness!

I saw a movie recently..based on a true story..called In The Wild..where a young man..after graduating from college, takes off on a long trip across the US..with only himself for company and no money..his destination - Alaska..the trip is for him to find himself..which he does. He comes to the realization that real happiness is shared happiness. Sooo..thank you!

My grandkids are 11yrs old, the boy..and the girl is 8 yrs old..almost 9. I suppose they´ll miss their mom..but my daughter and her family, whom I am visiting, also understand this..so we are planning to keep them busy. My youngest son..will also be there, so I am sure my grandkids will manage..as I say..the ADORE him. My grandkids have never flown anywhere..and it´s a 9hr journey..so this will be fun and an adventure..both of for me and for them.

Meredith.. my SIL has started his chemo..he is on his 2nd treatment. I talked with him last nite..and he was pretty tired and feeling nausious (spelling?). But he joked about it all and said that my daughter told him he must be feeling like we women do when we are pregnant. He had described for her how he felt. So my SIL said..now I know how you women feel..I´ve had kidney stones which are compared to giving birth and now, the chemo, which is like being pregnant. I am sooo grateful that he has been able to keep his naturally positive outlook..I think he is my hero at the moment. I admire his courage. And everyone else´s that have had to go thru chemo and cancer.

I am so grateful for my own health (as far as I know )..and for my dear family that gives me so much..just by being the wondeerful people that they are.
