Hi Marty,
I'm really glad you're going to be able to keep in touch w/the group
while you're away. I, too, would have missed your letters.
Everything is going well here. Annie still seems in good spirits. And
the kids, Tom and I are doing fine. I took Michael (my 3-1/2-yr.-old)
to the pet farm park yesterday and he became mesmerized with the cow
pooping! He said now he wants to check out a book from the library on
farm animals and how they poop on the farm! And all during the rest of
our visit there Michael proclaimed loudly the names of all of the
animals and how they poop on the farm! LOL! I warned him that he'll be
doing the same thing this summer, pooping where he stands, if he doesn't
hurry up and start using the toilet. He got a sort-of indignant look on
his face and said he'll just sit down on a chair then.
He was funny the other night, too. He's driving us crazy lately by
taking every possible opportunity to kiss everyone on the rear-end,
despite our protests. Then he laughs uproarously about it. Well, the
other night he asked me to hand him some toys (he was already in bed).
I asked, "What's it worth to you?" "1000," he replied. "1000 kisses?"
I asked. "Yes," he said. Then as I leaned over toward him he smiled
wickedly and added, "on the butt!" Jeez!
Well, I have to go fix lunch for Shannon. She leaves for school soon &
then I'll have to go pick up Michael from his school. Busy, busy,
busy... By the way, Annie took me up on my offer to buy her a cancer
cookbook. I returned the book I'd already bought, though, and put
another one (that looked better) on reserve. I may have already
mentioned the title - it's "The Cancer Survival Cookbook: 200 Quick &
Easy Recipes with Helpful Eating Hints." The description of it at
Amazon.com is quite good. Another friend said I should buy her Bernie
Siegel's "Love, Medicine & Miracles" (?) but I'm concerned that the
portion of it about death and dying might upset her at this point. What
do you think? Is the book uplifting enough?
