Putting Breast Cancer Behind Me...

I got my port out yesterday!! My last mamo looked good, my blood work is good, and I am through with all my treatments except for having to take tamoxfin for the next 5 years. The last thing I had to do was get the port removed and we did that yesterday. Now, if I can just make it through the next five years. My cancer was stage 2 and had spread to the lymph nodes so It could rear it's ugly little head somewhere else. However, I'm not going to worry about it. I have better things to do so, as of today, I am putting it behind me and moving forward.

I need more storage at my house so I bought this today at Lowes so I can store blankets in the summer and beach towels and summer stuff in the winter. It will go beside my bed so the grands won't be tempted to climb on it.




Now, if I can just find a table skit that will fit. I looked everywhere today and couldn't find anything I thought would work. The one I have on it is just way to short. I might have to make one.

Expo 2009

We had a great day out at the Expo today. It started off cool but quickly warmed up and it turned out to be a beautiful day! The kids loved the tractors and as you can tell, Mr. Landon was one happy little boy while he was climbing around in that Big ol'e John Deere tractor.




Their favorite animal at the Expo was the alpacas. They are so CUTE! As you can see the kids just loved watching them.
If I had a farm I think I would just have to have a few of these wondering around. :-)

More Pictures from the melon patch this one is of my youngest daughter Kayla and her son Landon. Then below is another one of Riley.


Then we have my oldest grandson Garrett and the whole bunch minus two below. Amanda and Baylee had to leave early is was a cold day and she wasn't feeling good.








This is one of Baylee's behind with a sunflower in her back pocket.


We went to Mark's melon patch over in Sasser this weekend and had a great time. This one is of Baylee.

The sunflowers were beautiful as always.

This is my middle daughter Leslie and her daughter Riley.


This is Landon on one of the tractor they had out there. He would have spent the whole day right here if we would have let him. He DOES love a tractor!




Here he is again on that tractor. He DID NOT want to get off!

This is a picture of my two little readers Landon Aubrey and Riley Grace. They can't REALLY read but they get read to a lot. They both love books and they love to pretend that they are reading.
Landon has been fighting sleep here lately so my cure for that has been to get his favorite blanket and take him out to the porch swing and swing away with the cricket chirping. I leave the lights off and and we just listen to the night time sounds and before you know it he's sound asleep. :-)
As for my test results, unofficially everything was fine but the Dr. hasn't signed off on them yet so I'll call them in the morning to see what he has to say.

Miss Riley Grace had a birthday. She's two now. She's a hoot and boy does she have a mind of her own. :-) We got her outfit on sale at Cracker Barrel for $8.00.

I didn't find out anything about my test today. I'll have to call them again tomorrow. So, for now...I'm not worried about it. I have enough people doing that for me. :-) Ya'll need to chill out until we know what we are dealing with. It may JUST be a dense spot and NOTHING else. Stuff like that DOES happen.
