What's Been Happening With Nana Diana-Update!

Lest you think I have
SAILED OFF INTO THE SUNSET
I have not---
Although sometimes I wish I could.
We have had some of the most 
spectacular sky shows this summer!
I have been getting our house ready to sell.
This was not an easy decision.
This was going to be our
'forever home'
but cancer changes everything-
from day-to-day living to long-term plans.

For those of you that don't know-
we have lived in 15 different houses
over the years-
bought and rehabbed  all of them.
We were 'flipping houses' long before
anyone knew what that meant.
That does not count the times we moved
and rented in between as we looked
for a house to rehab.

When I am done staging
(which is going to be soon)
I will post some pictures of our house-
No longer HOME-it is now a HOUSE.

But this is NOT a sad post-
Nope!
This is about overcoming and moving forward.

Here is MyHero with his two brothers,
Steve & Paul.
John used to be the BIGGEST ONE 
in the group.
He said the 
CANCER BONUS 
is that he lost weight.
I guess you gotta look for the 
GOOD THINGS THAT COME
AFTER CANCER.
I'll just keep my FAT-
thankyouverymuch!

MyHero continues to recover.
He is still not able to eat
but he has gone back to work
on a part time basis.
He still tires easily but his
spirits are good.
Sadly, his recovery has not included incentive to 
TAKE OUT THE TRASH
(which was always his only household job).

I have lots more to share-
things I have painted-

things I have changed around-
things that have happened-
but I don't want to make this too long.
Why bore you all in one blog post?

So, I promise to not be gone
so long this next time-
I have missed you!

I will leave you with your smile for the day.

Looks like we have our own little 
MAD MAN
in the family.
Daddy took CJK to work and he fit right in.
HEY!  NO SMOKING
in the office!
Oh! It's a SUCKER, huh?

And--after a long, hard day at work
you need to eat a TWINKIE orange slice
while lounging ON with your cousin.
The funny thing is that-
neither one of them thought that
was weird....

Have a wonderful Wednesday.
I promise to be back soon
and will try to visit you even sooner!
