OK.  Four things I am VERY excited about!

1. I'm feeling really well!  I felt horrible last week from a cold and had no energy at all.  My blood counts were probably low so Dr. Poulin prescribed me an antibiotic and bam ... it helped tremendously!  So I'm "just me" right now and that's wonderful!

2. My daughter, Brittany, came home for a few days over spring break and we hung out today shopping in downtown Portsmouth.  Bought incense and candles.  Fun!

3. I signed up for Relay for Life put on by the American Cancer Society.  I'm putting together a team that will camp out at Portsmouth High School in late May and between all of us we'll be walking the track for 18 hours, raising money before hand, and having an amazing time.

4. I purchased the web address, www.breastcancerstories.com and will be building a community for people to share their breast cancer stories!  Each person (for free) will receive an area where they can post journal entries and photos and whatever they want.  It will be such a great outlet for them to share their stories, and for others to get better educated.   There will also be a complete resource section with information on support groups, cancer facilities, cancer websites, hat companies, etc.  Over the next few weeks I'll be asking local hospitals/cancer centers to help offset the costs of the site.  If you have an interest or an "in" let me know!

Spring is in the air (despite all this weather crap).!
