Value?!

So. for the first time since Adam pulled my beautiful ring out of his cup... I had to leave it at the jewelry store :( One of the diamonds fell out of the side. I feel naked without it.

The lady in the store asked me the value. Seriously?! You are going to have to hand over the store if you lose that freaking ring lady.

Long weekend, had the stomach flu Sunday so I stayed at home yesterday attempting to recover. Still feel like crap. No, I am not pregnant.

We have Neighbors!!! The houses on either side of us sold last month and they are moving in!

I made sugar cookies for the new neighbors. Someone told me to bake them a pie.... No one wants to eat a pie that I bake. So I figured break and bake cookies would do the trick. Small problem. The new neighbor has not been back since I baked them and the neighbor on the other side has not moved in yet. People always foiling my plans.

I now have $353 for the 3 Day Breast Cancer Walk, thanks to a bunch of really awesome people.

Here is a pic to make you laugh for the day. It certainly does it for me :)

On your LEFT

3 years ago I walked the 3 Day Walk -- 60 miles. I have decided to do it again. I think it is something like child birth where you forget how bad the pain actually was. I remember the huge blisters and the burning sensation my feet felt on the last day, but that is not enough to keep me from doing it again. I tell myself, "it wasnt THAT bad".

I think what burns brighter in my memory are the women who walk after battling cancer or sometimes walk WHILE battling cancer. Some of those women were just walking in between Chemo.. Holy Crap. That definitely makes you forget about your silly feet.

I was 12 when my Grandma Jo died of Breast Cancer. The cancer had spread to her lungs and she was using an oxygen tank. I will never forget the image of her at the funeral without the tubes, the first time in many years.

I have been fortunate to not lose anyone else to Breast Cancer since that time. I really do believe that this walk that people go on every single year makes a difference in the cure rate of this disease.

So I will be there walking with my mom who will shout, "on your LEFT" every time she passes me, which will be many times.

I signed up 3 days ago and 4 people have already donated. I think that is amazing.

People are awesome and Everyone deserves a lifetime :)
