| Lavender Lady fulfilling a dream! |
we had today. You know when your getting old when the conversation turns to how you would like your funeral to be. Yep, that's one amidst the many conversations we had with Ray's brother on our trip today. We talked about how funeral's are such a money grab and it takes such advantage of those that are grieving. How crazy it is to spend 10 to 20 K on a funeral. ahhh the simple way is the best way for us we decided. Crazy talk I know but it's always nice to know how someone you care so much about feels and I think it's important for each of us to do what the other wants...

It has been an amazing couple of days. A day at the beach with one daughter's family and today a picnic at the lavender farm with the other. I can honestly never get enough of them all. With every visit I learn more about the kids, they grow so fast and change so quickly.

Gramma and Grandpa camp in late August will be over the top exhausting but every minute will be so amazing and soooooo memorable. We are now thinking as a family we should try to go away for a couple of days each year...mind you the son-in-laws have not approved of this yet. Not sure if they can imagine 2 solid days with their in-laws! LOL

Every once and awhile today I remembered that chemo was tomorrow, for the first time in a long time I actually wish it wasn't. It seems like such a short time since the last one this time. Probably because I have only had the odd day here and there where I have felt good. Sadness.

| Boxes of lavender ready for their trip home to dry. |
Tomorrow will begin with packing up some goodies for the 5 hour sit-a-thon at the clinic and then I will come home with my gizmo attached to me as usual. I think that this time I will imagine that I will NOT be sick at all and we will get to do all the things we want to. Yep, that's exactly what it will, yep, yep, yep.
So send good thoughts my way for an easy week and I'm sure it will be. Think and it shall be...right?

The pictures are SO gorgeous Mom! I don't even know what is prettiest...the rows and rows of lavender or just those amazing boxes filled with the fruit of your labour! I LOVE it and gets me teary seeing you doing exactly what you dream of.
ReplyDeleteBe gentle with yourself, stay relaxed, rested and focused on all that is good. Don't watch the news on TV, or read the paper. Get a couple good books, good tunes and stay happy, It's easy Right? Right!
