when it rains it pours

someone once told me that its impossible to be thankful and unthankful at the same time...so SEVERAL times in the past few years I would make myself a list to remind me how I always had things to be thankful for. and it wasnt always easy.....and now i find myself sooooooooooooo overcome with things to be thankful for. Like longtime answers to prayer-awesomeness....

yes by SW miles I am flying to Dallas to see my family....Im so thankful to be alive to be with my family. We are having christmas/thanksgiving dinner while there. We are having a photoshoot with my family. We are having cocoa and going to look at lights.. so yes im giddy about going....

in Dec we get to travel to Gainsville again to see family and celebrate their 20 yr wedding anniversary.

in January i get to have my survivor party.

in March we get to go to an amazing place in Colorado for skiing with alot of family.

and its taken me a long time to get here. but my sister n law told me something that stuck- you lived....now live.....

so omg when it rains it pours....

one year

its been an entire year since i went to the doctor almost daily, flashed my body to everyone almost daily-willing victims and not. But most importantly i have more hair that i can dye.....one year ago, i finished treatment for breast cancer. well minus the drugs i will have to take for 5 yrs and the shrink i still see but the physical side is over. yes im a little giddy. i remember wishing for this day....and here it is.....and yes chemo did take alot of things but not my life....so thankful i am
