"Good and Plenty"

Time for a little humor. I just completed my radiation treatment and am feeling better every day. I have been on various medications these past weeks dealing with the side effects from the treatments. One of which is a low dose time release pain medication I take twice a day.
Rocky had gone to bed and I had the pill in the pocket of my robe with a few good and plenty candys. You know those pink and white licorice ones.... Yes, I grabbed a few candies and with it came the pill and I chewed up a time release pain medication!! I freeked out! Woke up Rocky, called the 24 hour nurse, she had me call poison control....Ugh!!  As it turned out the medication was such a small dose there was no problems at all. Rocky and I and the boys now call it the "Good and Plenty" incident. I have since bought a locking box for all my medications and am treating them with a lot more respect!!

Last weekend Rocky and I and a crew of people moved into our new home in Caldera Springs. The most exciting weekend I have had this year for sure and one of the best ever. Just to watch all the pieces come together and sit by the fire that night thanking God in every breath for the gift He has blessed our family with this year.

2011 has been the most life changing year of our lives.  Facing the "Big C" as people refer to cancer these days. We refer to the "Big C" as Christ battling the little "c" cancer and guess who has the upper hand.  THANK you for all your prayers and support this last year. As I sit by the fire with the sun setting on the glittering snow outside my windows, my dog chewing his bone, enjoying the most peaceful place in the world, I am looking forward to see how God will use this house to bless His name...
