Hello to everyone who reads this. I haven't written in loooooong time. Here we are in FEBRUARY 2010 already. Did you see that time speeding by? Right now Dean is well and very happy. We had a great Christmas and even got snowed in at daughter Sherri's for a couple of days. Perfect! Haven't seen her lately cause Caleb has been sick, and that is one thing we are very careful about-----keeping Dean well.
He will now have alternating every 3 months either a cat-scan or ultra-sound to keep track of his aneurysm, and then regular blood work to keep track of the CLL. We have a routine, and look forward to our dates at the VA---because we get to go out to lunch and do some shopping in the "big" city. LOL He's in 2 carving groups now, and very enthusiastic about his hobbies and his life in general. I've always been a big part of Sherri's family life---and have let that go while Dean has been so sick. I hope to be more involved again this year. Also I re-joined my "make cards" group. I may even be able to get back to my book club at the library!
We both have come to a lot of "acceptance" of what life holds for us now, and in the future. This has the side-effect, I guess you could say, of making us really enjoy every day, and being happy for everything we have.
Today Dean is at a buddy's doing something with carving, and I am getting our house back to normal finally, after the holidays. Next month, if all goes well we are going on vacation for a week with the Karps up to our time-share at Stormy Point in Branson. Really looking forward to that! Also, looking forward to seeing Sherri & Katie in CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN at the Community Theater at the end of Feb. So......that's if for now, and I will try and keep this up. I know you read it Sherri at least. Haha. Love meeeeeeeee

Hey!! Glad your back.. I think we need to change your "skin" (background) .. as Halloween is long past!!
Rehearsal was okay.. Katie was great and I am getting there. It was fun..sort of.

There now... isn't that better??
I am just going to vicariously live thru you to and get my mom fix. :) I find it so perfectly beautiful that the two of you have such a caring relationship. Glad to get an update from you Lynn. Enjoy the card nights.
Glad you are enjoying the now. The scary can do that to you. We feel the same at our house. My parents celebrated their 48th anniversary last week and I asked what we were planning for the 50th. My Mom said my Dad wasn't sure he would be around (i think he will). That was somewhat of a downer but it sure made us happy about the 48th! Glad you and Mr. Dean are enjoying your passions/hobbies and each other. Thanks for posting- it has been a loooooooooooong time.
Love you!
