It has been over a week since my last treatment. This morning I really felt sick. I hate to say this but I have not recovered nearly as quickly from this last treatment as I have the last two. That worries me a little. I am now able to drink my water when I have put a little apple cider in it. It makes it easier on my tummy, thanks to my brother for reminding me of that. I am considering asking the doctor about putting a few more weeks between this last and the next treatment, especially since my grandchildren are here for only a few more weeks.

Having the family around has been a great distraction to me and one that I enjoy and am grateful to have.
Rob, my oldest son and Jared, Heather's husband headed down to the Kenai to fish, taking Meg and Grace, Rob's daughters with them last Thurs. They had a great time and came home with 13 reds. We broiled several fillets on Sunday, basted them with butter and then drizzled a lemon- lime ginger sauce over them. Wow! So tasty!! Jared commented that that would be a 50.00 a plate meal! He is probably right. ( juice of one lemon, one lime, 1 cup sugar, grated fresh ginger to taste, and lemon and lime zest to taste. simmer until it thickens. Serve over grilled or broiled salmon fillet.)
I enjoyed taking a walk with Grace and Will on Sunday evening. We walked to Wasilla Lake and looked for fish under the bridge. Will thought it was fun walking barefoot in the grass. Grace danced around us chattering and singing like the little performer she is.

Monday night we had family home evening with the little ones and that was sweet. Grace picked the songs and led them. Meg took care of assigning the prayers. I gave the lesson and Rob planned the activity. It was so sweet to see how the children responded when we all took turns telling what we thought was special about them and each other. We played duck duck goose and even little Will who is 18 months was tapping us on the head and saying duck duck and then running down the hall and back as fast as he could go. There is nothing sweeter than kneeling with your children and little ones in family prayer together at the end of the day.

Friends and Family continue to bless my life with their kind deeds and thoughts and prayers. I am blessed.
