I'VE JOINED THE DANCE

THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE SENSE OUT OF CHANGE IS TO PLUNGE INTO IT, MOVE WITH IT, AND JOIN THE DANCE.
                                                                       Alan W. Watts

What does this quote mean? Look further.

​I have been looking for a nice, little used truck to beebop around in. I finally found just what I needed. But guess what color I ended up with?????? Yes, People, I have changed and joined your dance.
​   
​
Yup. . .I found a nice little WHITE truck. And I love it! Now, will all of you folks out there that already belong to the "White Conspiracy" Club please tell me the rules I must follow as a fellow member? Is there a secret handshake? A yearly national convention? Spill it! Or is this club so secret that no one is allowed to know the rules? Whatever. I'll just toot my horn at every white vehicle I see to let you know that ​I know that we are in this together.  NOTE: Jenna was astounded when I went to pull out of a parking area, and my back-up horn sounded. It's not the kind that warns you there is something behind you. . .it's the kind of horn that lets everyone know that you are backing up. Sigh. Did I mention that it was used?

​Another bit of news I need to pass on, is that I am probably not going to grow sunflowers next year. If some of this year's seeds drop and come up voluntarily, okay. What I didn't realize about those huge ten-foot tall kinds is that the head of the sunflower weighs a pound or more, which makes it top-heavy and the whole darn thing starts to bend over. Next thing you know, it's laying on the ground. Yipes! Maybe I should have gone with the smaller version. Ya think? Oh, I still like sunflowers. . .and always will. But when you can enjoy the plant for just a few days before it starts looking punky, no thanks.

​I had a great morning yesterday when I met with friend Betty C. from Missouri.  I could tell my hearing is pretty much shot when she called to ask me to meet her at "Tanera's". I said okay, and asked her where that was. When she told me the address, I realized that she was saying "PANERA'S".  We had a nice long visit and she was so sweet to treat me to breakfast. And she still looks pretty fantastic. grrrr

​IMPORTANT UPDATES:  Hubby has been seeing lots of doctors, and the final news is that he is doing
​                                           well and everything is going to be fine.

                                            Also, sister Judy's breast cancer operation went very well and she is
​                                            starting radiation. She is staying strong in spirit and mind-set, which
​                                            are some of the strongest tools she will be working with and will help
​                                            her get through this so much easier.​

    Janene...

    ... was diagnosed with breast cancer on November 11, 2013. This is a place for all of the people who love and care about her to get the information about her treatment and her personal experience of kicking cancer's ass, (sometimes from her daughter's perspective). It's hard to stand by and not be able to do anything to help. Writing gives my mom an outlet and allows both of us to share information during this time. Therefore, we blog :)
