UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!!

Dearest readers - long hiatus!  I've now had six adriamycin treatments an am waiting on the CAT.  I'm on sick leave again, so just biding time.  Otherwise, am keeping busy with garden help, collectibles organizing, etc.  And we're digging out!!  wow, what a storm!!  We got about 18 - 20" - some areas got 2 - 3 feet!!  While NYC was spared, New Jersey was slammed.  So the world is digging out!

Meanwhile, the conflict in the world goes on.  Hard to believe that Boehner invited Netanyahu to speak - a clear slap in the face.  We are attempting to negotiate a peace for the middle east, but this flies in the face of these negotiations.  What is happening in Syria?  What about the problem of massive refugees?  The news is filled with "deflategate" and other nonsense - and I search for actual news!!

I've been thinking recently about my legacy - what am I leaving?  What have I accomplished? What has changed?  Yes, I participated in civil rights actions - yes, I saved Jim (and Dan) - yes I have helped hundreds of students get a GED - yes I have mentored our Madelin.  My life has moved in positive directions.  I have not led huge movements, but have contributed on a one-to-one.  Many thoughts. 

So the whole world waits - will write soon!!

  1. Your generosity, compassion and beauty shine through always, dear friend. Your life has been one amazing one...just think if all humans offered as much to our world as you have - we'd be in a different and better world for sure. Love that you are able to be on leave from work again, so you can continue treatments and rest along with doing those things you love. Many cyberhugs coming your way. Love Always, Lorraine :-)
