Hope

 


This is my last post of the year.  This week we are busy finishing up company business (hubby is taking 3 weeks off to take care of me), cooking the turkey Thursday and prepping for our trip Sunday and my Surgery Tuesday.  

I will not be posting until I am safe and sound back at home with my sweet hubby, Mom and my loving dog Buddy.  My gift to myself and everyone else this year is hope.

  • Hope that we all can see our families again soon, in our case a reunion with the kids and hopefully a family wedding for my eldest stepson if it is safe to do so

  • Hope for a better 2021

  • Hope the vaccines work and are distributed quickly so more people are saved from the pain of losing loved ones

  • Hope that the world gets back to some sort of normal

  • Hope that within a few months my surgery and a couple more rounds of chemo will give me several more good years of life with all the people that I love


Merry Christmas everyone.  If you don't see your comment published it will be just as soon as I am able to access my computer again (not in the hospital).  See you on the other side!

  24. Wishing you all the best on your surgery and recovery. I am so glad you got in before any closures took place, as they have begun to close ORs in Ontario. I hope you feel so much better and the surgery is successful.
