THANKFUL FOR A VERY GOOD WEEK

This has been shaping up to be a very good week offering lots to smile about😊

 This is most especially true, following two years of serious illness, chemo and three life-saving surgeries. 

On Saturday, we enjoyed our Valentine’s Day party on the patio with Steven, Ravi, David and our niece, Jessica (and we celebrated Jess's birthday, as well).😊

On Sunday, David drove back to the west coast in time to enjoy the Super Bowl with our eldest son, Barry—need I say that Will and I enjoyed the game at home (following a two hour patio visit with our dear friends, Andi and Michael).😊

On Tuesday, Will and I picked up Ravi from school, and we all enjoyed dinner, together, when Eric arrived after work.😊

Tonight my sister, Sharon and her husband, Mickey fly in from the frosty Midwest.😊

Tomorrow is my Shakespeare class on Zoom.😊

Friday is Edie’s birthday, and our loving friendship of more than forty years will share a candle lit cupcake on my patio.😊

On Saturday, we can see Sherry, Mickey and Jess, after they test negative for Covid (having spent time in two international airports).😊

Although this kind of week may have felt normal to me, two years ago, if you’ve been following my blog for any length of time then you can imagine my smile widening while summarizing why this has been shaping up to be a very good week for us after having experienced two years of life-threatening illness, chemo (causing several emergency hospitalizations in need of blood transfusions) and three major surgeries, each of which zapped all of my energy, leaving me so autoimmune-suppressed as to have had need to quarantine more seriously than anyone we know.  Whew!  So good to be on the healing side of that which proved to be a lengthy traumatizing experience for Will, our family and me.

This has been shaping up to be a very good week offering lots to smile about😊
