friends

Have you ever had the type of friend who loves you no matter what?  I am lucky to have such a friend.   Lori is going through alot in her life  her husband  has ALS.   Its funny how when I am with her my faults are funny and I am not insecure about them...she makes me feel good about them... Her days are filled with taking care of her husband and her children, yet in the midst of all this she asked me what she could give to my 4loveofpink.  She bought me enough gum for 20 baskets for the womens shelter! Even though this is a a difficult season in her life she is  always  there with a warm hug, a cup of coffee and laughter.   I am a better person because of Lori.......I look forward to many more years of friendship....

thoughts.....

I had a bone density scan done on Monday the appt was 45 minutes long.  When I broke my leg they were concerned about me having osteoporosis ....as I am 39 years old I was very upset.       I had to lay perfectly still on the table while the scanner went over my body... I never thought that at 39 years of age I would have to worry about this... twenty years from now ....OK  that I can accept.   I kept starring at the ceiling as the scanner went over me and sticking out from one of the ceiling tiles was a bright PINK ribbon.... it was meant to be.  I stopped thinking about me and started to focus on the women who have breast cancer and other women I am trying to help through  PINK.  These women are strong and I am truely amazed by them.....
