Home from Vacation
I can't believe it! We had another amazing vacation! Some friends of our's invited us to a lake house in Georgia for the fourth of July, and it was a grand time! The kids were well behaved, the weather was perfect, and memories were made.
D & B brought their son W (our Godchild), their four legged son, Dega, and their boat. MA (my mother-in-law) joined us, too! So...five adults, three kids, and Dega stayed in a 2 bedroom lakehouse from July 2nd to July 6th. And, not only did we all survive, but we all had a great time! We skied, swam, rode the tube, talked, played games, hung out on the deck/dock, and ate. Oh, my goodness, did we eat! We put that grill to use!
We took the girls out on the boat to see the fireworks on the fourth, and it was so magical. The water was calm, and the temperature was perfect. There weren't any crowds to deal with, and the evening was so peaceful. A crawled onto the back seat of the boat on the way home, and went to sleep. I was holding P in the front of the boat, and I had a very melancholy moment. It was such a memorable moment, that I got upset about the memories that I might miss.
The next night, I got a little down, too. I guess really high moments bring about low moments, too. D said that's probably because I'm strong enough to deal with them, then. Sounds about right. It was about time I had some down time, anyway. I was beginning to worry that I was in denial.
Oh, yeah....time for some whining. I seem to be shedding. Bummer. Nothing noticeable, yet, but I'm starting to get a little concerned. I constantly remind myself that this whole chemo thing has been pretty easy...a bad case of acne...constipation...nothing too noteworthy...but, I still think I'm going to have some issues if it all falls out.
Got some exciting news, yesterday. My MIL has decided to move to Alabama! We've always wanted her to live here, and she decided that's what she wants to do. The whole family is thrilled!!
One more note...my dear friends S & A had a baby, today! No 3! A little girl...and she is beautiful!
God bless each and everyone of you!

Dear Stacy -
I so enjoyed reading your BLOG. In all of your free time (HA!) after this cancer journey, I think that you should write an inspiration book. I really think that you are gifted to bring encouragement and smiles!!!!!!
We received your sweet thank you note yesterday, and I was so thrilled today just to get to know you through this BLOG.
God has truly given us divine connections, and I have no doubt that one day we will meet each other.
John and I will continue to lift you and your family up in prayer (once you're entered into my prayer journal - you're covered in prayer for life - hehheheheheee!)
So, thank you for blessing me with your encouraging and humorous cancer journey BLOG!!!!!!
