Days

Survived a two day head cold, flu, whatever. Wasn't too bad, though I vacillated wildly between post-treatment flashback despair and totally chill "this is nothing". But woke up wonderful, finally, it totally sucked being sick, and went to the beach. Daughter fished a little. Hubby fished all day. I played, strolled, swam, built sandcastles, paddled big yeller (hubby's canoe), laughed, sang, got spooked by stingrays. It was great. Felt beautiful. Even me. All pretty, comfortable in my skin. Arrived home to a letter from the docs, reminding me of my 3 month check, and a lab sheet marked "Hep C Quantasure". Ew. Up for hours, hard to fall asleep. But when I did, I dreamt of running, fast, strong, happy, light for miles. A good sign I think.

Ample,

It's going to sound schmaltzy, but you are a testament to the strength and grace of the human spirit. I'm glad to count you among my friends. :-)

ps. Thanks for the comments on the art. I've got some killer ideas up my sleeve. Drop an email from my art site, and I'll tell you all about them.

Sure you're gonna Ace your Quanta! Meanwhile, put that lab slip away till the day you go for the test.

sounds schmaltzy, but it's true! I have always been so lucky to have this one around me growing up! :D

Your surrounding sounds so good. I want to be there too. : )
Of course you will have a good luck. It started when you had found out you have Hep C.

Pretty, of course pretty : )
