Congratulations to all the new Mothers to be and all the to be Mothers again! Gillian, I couldn't be happier for you. You will make such an amazing, cool mom! Leanne, I'm guessing by your tagline on your MSN that your family is growing as well? Hannah will love having a little baby brother or sister. And speaking of Hannah, she's growing so much! I'll bet she keeps you running... Well, just a note to say congrats. Marco and I are going tubing in St Mary's on Saturday with a bunch of people from work. It should be a blast. You don't even have to walk up the hills - you get towed! My kind of tubing. Oh, and we picked out the tile for the backsplash. I think Marco and his dad are doing it next week. Sometimes life is just Great if you let it be.

Well, I haven't blogged in a while, not because I've had nothing to say (I always have something to say, lol ) but because I've just been too busy - read lazy - to sit down and actually do it. I have, however in the last week kind of taken stock of 2006 and made a list of highlights: Survived all the horrible things that surround a breast cancer diagnosis Walked in the Run For the Cure and raise a significant amount of money that will go to hopefully never having to worry about anyone I know and/or love having to go through the above. Got a new kitchen (the first ever in my life) Moved in with my soul mate Had the opportunity to meet and work with truly amazing, caring people. Watched my grandaughter grow into an intelligent, inquisitive and downright hilarious toddler (she and my family are and always will be the light at the end of the tunnel for me) So, all in all, it really hasn't been a bad year. Christmas was good. I was spoiled as usual. I think I gained 10 ...

It must be awful to be a Shopping Mall Santa. All these kids who are deathly afraid of you and their parents forcing them to not only sit on your knee, but then you're expected to be able to make them smile for a picture. There's a whole gallery dedicated to pictures of scared children with Santa here . I took Amanda to White Oaks on Friday and there were a couple of kids ahead of her that could be added to that site. Amanda still wasn't impressed but at least there were no tears or screaming....

I know that I posted a comment to your blog, but Congratulations again, Karen and Bill!!!!! I couldn't be happier for you if I really were your mom! Anneleike, I hope you're taking pics of your Christmas concert. I'm not sure that I know of anyone who is more suited to be in the occupation that they're in than you. It's been forever since I posted last and for that I apologize. It's almost Christmas! I have done 27 of my 30 radiation treatments and am looking forward to being done for good!. My hair is starting to grow back - slowly - and so are my eyelashes, but the eyebrows are being stubborn, so I still have to draw them on. My skin, where they radiate, is taking a beating. Sure makes you understand how important sun screen is! I will be finished radiation exactly one year from when it was confirmed that I had cancer. It'll be great when it's all done. I'm so thankful that I have had friends and family, and Marco(he's a category all of his own) to help me ...
