Shower the People

Valentine's Day party 2019
1 John 3:18 (KJV) My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.



I love Valentine's Day. It's my favorite holiday, by far. It's a day set aside to show all the people in my life just how much they mean to me.

This year, I did it up big. I wore red every day last week. The party-planning article I wrote appeared in the Rainbows United Facebook page. I bought gifts for several loved ones, bought candy for all the kids I know, sent countless Valentine's cards, planned two big parties, and had a very exclusive celebration with the Hubster. I also received many heartfelt cards, yummy chocolates, lovely presents, sweet emails and best of all--wonderful hugs.

It is a privilege to have the life I do--I am so grateful to God. He showers me with matchless love on a daily basis. I believe when I share His love with others, it's a little taste of what Heaven will be like.

Female in Motion Health Update

I am at Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Zion, IL, tonight. I flew in last night, spent all day in the waiting room and appointments. I have a headache, my feet hurt, my burns hurt and I'm exhausted. Man, I hate it when I'm whiny. The good news is, I'm doing well. As Dr. Citrin put it, I'm one tough woman. He was shocked that I was able to travel so soon after finishing radiation. He took one look at the burns under my arm and prescribed some aloe vera gel with lidocaine and some pain meds to help me sleep.  I will start Arimidex this week, too. In the bad news department, I am not in any state of mind to write tonight. I have to be up early in the morning to catch a flight home, so I will say good night and God bless each and every one of you: for your prayers, for your support, for being you. As I promised, I will post the piece I've been working on very soon. Thanks for understanding. *** Notable Quote:  " John 14:27 (KJV) Peace I leave w...

I Can't Get No Satisfaction

Too much of a good thing is not good at all!  When I was a kid of six or eight, I had an obsession. It was a food obsession, particularly with Chicken in a Biskit crackers. It was a doomed relationship from the start, because even at that tender age, I realized the glaring spelling error. I found a box of those crackers in the cabinet one day, quietly put them under my shirt, and slipped downstairs to the family room, where I proceeded to watch Major Astro and eat the entire box . It wasn't much later when my tummy started to protest. Too much of a good thing was definitely not a good thing. After spending several hours in the bathroom that evening, I learned a valuable lesson: Even the best food doesn't taste good in reverse. Since that day, even the sight of one of those crackers makes me  slightly nauseated. I can't go near them. Seems like a lot of us are looking for something to fill in the nooks and crannies of our lives. The temporary satisfaction that an...
