Hey there..

Hello friends... I've been playing so much lately I had to take time to catch up at the house.. still got a long way to go but the laundry is done. :-) Chey is still on her medicine but she is over the Strep. thank goodness.. my focus now is on my cheer team.. our pee wee cheer competition will be next Thursday.. they are doing great, but we have a lot of practices between now and then. My next doctors appointment has been scheduled for December 18th.. which is good.. it isn't an "exact" two months before my next appt. I don't know why this December month has been on my mind so much.. the good news is that I will have a ct scan done for this one.. My nerve doctor has also scheduled a follow up visit.. the good news there is the numbness in my feet is 99% better.. and he didn't expect us to see any resutls for at least 6 months.. just thought I'd share that blessing with you.. I'm doing good mentally.. :-) staying busy of course.. check out the new pictures I've added from our recent activities.. may you all have a blessed day. Love Debbie

13 years.. :-)

Today Curt and I celebrate 13 years of marriage.. And it's truly a celebration. Ups and downs.. yep, arguements, yep and life challenges.. double yes... but a marriage strong enough to make it through all of this is truly a blessing. Curt is my strength during my most difficult times.. an incident that will never leave my mind was at a doctors appt., him knowing I was scared.. stood up held me in his arms and said.. I give you my strength.. I lost it right there.. it's so easy to get in a routine of life.. and lose focus of how blessed we really are. This year has been an eye opener for our family and an opportunity to appreciate and celebrate all that we have. Learning again to focus on what is important in life and enjoy and live every moment to the fullest. Unfortunately, Curt is traveling to Los Angeles today and returning late tomorrow night.. I pray for safe travels for him and I pray that you all get the same opportunity to look into your lives and see your blessings. Love to you all. Debbie

10/27

So sorry I missed today.. (Monday) I was waiting on my pics from the weekend to share everything with you. Today was busy with Darby.. then Chey was feeling a little under the weather.. she didn't want to miss Red Ribbon week (drug free week) so I let her go.. took her to the doctor today and wouldn't you know it... she has Strep Throat.. I'm a terrible mother.. I should have known.. so we have antibotic and now.. Darby did kick off red ribbon week.. i think the kiddos loved him.. and I loved it.. I'll catch you guys up tomorrow from the weekend and whats going on through this head of mine... sleep tight.. Debbie

It's Friday! Go Hawg wild!

Happy Friday everyone!! So yesterdays news just inspires me to participate and go "hawg wild" at the Ben Wheeler Hawg festival this weekend.. We are creating hawg noses and ears to go on our 4 wheelers and jeep for the parade. Darby will be in the parade and is entering the Hawg Queen pageant. They say the crazier the better so I'll fit right in. Then Sat. night it's the Hawg Ball.. wear anything from suit and dresses to coveralls with your hawg nose of course.. Yep, I'll be "hamming it up" this Saturday. :-) you guys have a wonderful weekend. Take time to do something you enjoy. Love you. Deb

2 more months

Great news!! Two more months before I go back. Things look good.. he didn't feel any abnormalties.. he said they will continue to check the pelvic area and a ct scan will be done in December... if all looks good they will spread them out longer.. (dunno if i like that part) but we'll wait and see.. he also said they will continue to keep a close eye (ct scans) on the chest area since that has the soft tissue that this type cancer likes to attack (little scary) regardless the news was good.. thank you for your support and prayers.. sometimes my head says .. thank you don't seem like enough to you guys ... but my heart says you know. I'll be back tomorrow. See you then. Love Debbie

Thursday..

My morning has started off good. Typical get up and everyone ready.. I admit I did take an Ambien last night to make sure I would sleep and not worry. I had a church sign speak to me this morning :-) I love to read church signs.. theres always a good message serious and fun ones.. todays read.. "In God I trust, I will not be afraid." I love that god has found "creative" ways talk to me.. and I'm sure he's just as thrilled I have learned to listen and read. :-) I'm going to the doctor today with questions and an open mind. I'm thankful for how great I have felt over the last 2 months and all that I have been able to accomplish and do. I will let you know how it goes when I get back home. Thank you for your support and prayers. Debbie
