Foods Eaten: 

Bowl of some kinda healthy cereal (I have been told by Greg that Poptarts have way too much fat...so I'm trying to lay off of them), COFFEE, egg salad sandwich, Pepsi One, a few tacos, 5 chocolate Twizzlers...

The Day:

Today is *that* day.  My annual "prodding and probing day."  No...it's my annual cancer check up..to make sure that nasty cancer hasn't come back.  When this checkup comes up negative (and it WILL), it will be my 10 year mark....10 years cancer free.  This particular doctor is gonna use the phrase "cured" in his records.  I feel....good.  I beat it.  I won.  YEAH!!!!!

I didn't do it alone...I had tons of help.  My faith in God had a LOT to do with it....then my son, and my husband.. and friends and family.  There is a support group through the American Cancer Society called Cansurmount (which I later volunteered for) that helped GREATLY.  It matches cancer survivors with cancer patients...and has them talk to each other.  A great idea...a wonderful program...I don't know if I would have gotten through it all without it.

Otay...now I promised myself that at my 10 year anniversary of being cancer free....that I would do something WAY special to celebrate.  Problem is...I'm at a loss for ideas...lol.  Got any for me???  E-mail them to meeeee.

Anyway...work was busy today.  Nicholas tried to bite every child in sight...including ME his teacher.  Ohhhhhh that child.

My computer is annoying HG's computer again..I'm going to shut down stuff and be online later...cya :)
