I don't know about you, but sometimes life throws you a curve ball! Just received one at the end of June when a work associate became sick. By the first week in July she was diagnosed with brain cancer! Wow-- does that make a mind spin. It just so shows me to count each day, because tomorrow may not be yours.

but knowing that you were making a difference in circumstances made it also rewarding.
In the midst of changes and planning I had to take time to finish book club books. Inevitably, they had someone experiencing cancer or death. Books can be therapeutic and at this time that is what I found. Friends and loved ones were also there and they were definitely therapeutic for me as well.
With this time frame in mind --- don't forget to smell the roses, watch the sunset, and sleep in once in a while, tell others you love them, and give them a hug too.
