Well, here we are, at the last hour, and I think I may just make it! And for this time-slot’s dedication, I go to my friend Kathy whose best friend has been battling cancer. She just went 2 weeks ago for a check up and they found more. Next week she has yet another surgery.…
Great Grandma Conlee
(_no, dear daughter, it is not pronounced cannoli_) Great Grandma Conlee and Grandpa Chittenden died very close together, in time and space, both from cancer. I was very young, 4 or 5 years old – the age when you really just start having memories that stick with you. My memories of Grandma Conlee were her…
Blogathon Archival Browsing
Well, in an effort to stay awake, between fighting the cat several times over my laceweight and sock wool that is for my SP5, I’ve been perusing old entries and photos. This web space did start out as primarily a photo journal and has evolved through many different phases, as has my life. Here are…

Prostrate- such a lovely word- NOT!
Is it just me or are we hearing a rather large surge in the number of cases of prostrate cancer? Get screened people! Yes, it’s awful, yes it’s worth it, and yes, we’re still going forward with research, etc. to fight this evil form of cancer, as well. Suz shared that both her dad and…
Loyal Friends Lost
This post will still be on the sad side, tho not exactly cancer-related, and about loss, but not that of people. Very recently my dad and a couple of my friends I’ve mentioned have lost pets, that were old, and dear to them. They were part of their family. Dad said goodbye to his dog,…
Another Dedication, Folks
Earlier we mentioned Angela’s dad, now I want to mention her grandmother. Yes, so soon after losing her dad, she more recently, just weeks ago, lost her grandmother, Mildred Summers, to liver cancer. How many different types of cancer is that that we’ve mentioned? We should count them. If I was more awake I would.…

All things must end…
The end of my shift is coming near, and I am ALMOST dreaming of hitting that bed like a rock in an avalanche. To pass the time, in a way that wouldn’t be so intense I forget to post, I browsed online for my Elvish Name:Aranel Also, Lasagna(our kitten of course) was just lovin on…
Bored Stiff
I am ridiculously bored! Everyone else is asleep, and I am trying not to fall asleep at the puter myself, just the thought of the ridicule I’ll get from keys dented into my forehead is scary enough to shudder at. I am yawning repeatedly, as I see you are too. I just had a thought,…
