I had chemo today, that makes three now. All is well with that, I don't get sick just tied. My hair is starting to thin out so have ordered some pretty hats tonight. Last week I had my wig styled, it looks very modern now. I try to do a couple hours embroidery most days. I have a pretty garden with lots of sitting areas, have a cuppa and watch the birds. big hugs to all of you Heather

That garden and cuppa could be a big part of your health! Sounds wonderful. I'm a Christian and I believe in the power of prayer and I believe in intelligently working with good doctors. But, in my gardening, I might be a bit Zen.

Thankyou Lidia ,I am so happy that I spent a lot of time paving wandering paths and rummaging around garage sales for Asian pots . My grandchildren call it the fairy garden and spend many hours decorating their fairy tree, I find it very calming.

Thankyou, I feel that positive thoughts are large part of healing, I have a great family and nice friends, I would hate to drive them away by being sad all the time.

Thankyou Yoriko, I went into your site yesterday only to realize that I cannot remember my password, I saw lots of great designs, well done. It is very windy in Mackay this week, my garden is sheltered by Hedges , trees and High fencing, we have lots of birds come in for water and to eat the berries.

So glad to read this news Heather. I can't wait to see a picture of your new wig and hats. This time of year is gorgeous in the garden, we have all of our Spring flowers coming out in bloom. The Kookaburras are back nesting in our gum tree and you can smell blossoms in the air. I'm so glad you've got lovely areas to sit and relax and breathe in the Spring air and watch the birds. God bless you and your family. Love and blessings Chris, Newcastle, Australia.

Thankyou Chris, my spring hats are almost completed, the flowers and leaves are put together with a hot glue gun, new for me. I hope the sunbirds will repair last years nest and reuse, they are such pretty birds. I love Kookaburras how nice for you, Newcastle sounds like a great place to live, hugs Heather

Thankyou, I try to have morning tea, most days. We sit in a different spot and pretend that we are at a resort and tell each other how lucky we are.
