So I am still gimpy... sucks!!! But that is nothing...a blogging friend that had cancer when I did just got the news that not only does she have it again! It is in her breast, bones AND LUNGS!!! WHY??? I would Hazzard to quess she is a better person than I... living a Christian path...sweet as the day is long... and then there is me...now don't get me wrong... I am not a bad sort... but I am a work in progress at 53!!! I am very head strong... I am redefining myself and that is hard (but mostly for those around me) I am enjoying the process!!! I am so far cancer free!!! the ticker is fixed ,so much more energy! !!( I think that had been going on a long time) ... these things happen, right??? They need to stop happening!!! I don't know how she's gonna face it... how??? Not Again. .. I don't think I could face it again... that is how awful it is... but she is better than me. ..( or is it better than I? ) it doesn't matter... life... I am thankful... life it is a gift... treasure it...
After 10 months of dealing with the very annoying process of surviving Breast Cancer (read my other blog A lump in my road) I am moving forward. This blog may or may not have conclusion. I am not a writer. This is like reading in my head. It is bumpy and scary and funny and sad and maybe a little triumphant! I have found it to be helpful. Please feel free to talk to me. Though I am not a combatant I welcome all comers. So buckle up let's see what happens. ...After the Lump!

Pool. ..Swimming. ..or the forgotten refuge...
How is it I forget so easily how much I enjoy the water??? I went back to the pool last night for the first time in months and it was like am old friend. .. I eased into the water and with each lap I felt more myself!!! Refreshed!!! Strong!!! How do I forget that feeling?!? It doesn't matter I am back at it! !!

C25k!!! That is Couch to 5k a life changing experience! !!!
I have been doing this for 8 weeks now repeating weeks here and there... I am loving it!!! Honestly, what stopped me before? ?? I actually know they answer to that. ... I have for years been self judging. ... comparing myself to what??? I woke up a few weeks ago. ...no one is watching. ..no one cares Lois!!! No one cares that I am slow or that I wear a funny hat or any number of things! !!! So why judge myself??? Start a week over...it only make me better when I move on to the next level.... No one is judging !!! It is nice that people are supportive... but for me getting out of bed ,getting dressed, putting the boys harnesses on and hitting the streets, bottom line is that I am supportive of me... I am building myself up... I am positive self talking... this is my health... this is my life...
