I may feel not so good, but I laughed so hard the last few days
AND
today when I looked in the mirror.
This is what too much birthday cake, food & presents look
like when I'm on chemo.
The black eye came from the SWIFFER barely tapping my
eye yesterday
I had such a GREAT time.
My BFF Marcia came over yesterday
with a blue & brown package
sweet treats
lovely journal
(Louise your's is coming)
&
other days
a cache of 4 cherubs, 3 angels, 2 sheep ornies made by my dear Mary of Raven Hares Cabin
a new book "Providence of a Sparrow"
LOTS of birthday cards
a lovely Spring Bouquet from my BFFS Cindy & Patty
Three dear friends came in the PM with pizza, gondola sandwich & orange chiffon cake
a lovely votive cup and fruit smoothee candle
If I left ANYONE or ANYTHING out.. PLEASE forgive me..I have a serious case of
CRS (Can't remember ____) you fill in the BLANK.
thank you all for your prayers and love
tis truly God hearing you all that
has carried me so far, so well
BED FOR THE DAY now
and tomorrow my dear Sherry, Blair Creek Cabin will be
calling as she will be coming to visit ME
I'm excited I have not seen her since May 2007.
Love in Him
JOYS TODAY
are
EVERYTHING
your friend Deena (who's NOT so pretty in pink today , but laughing merrily )

Don't you know that you are not supposed to be practising Roller Derby Queen on your clean kitchen floor just cause you have days off now from children and chores?!! And do I have to let the National Boxing Union know that you are holding illegal fights in your residential home??!! Honestly, we can't leave you alone for a minute can we?!!! You even have the robe on that looks the part. Didn't anyone tell you that at 53 you're supposed to be shuffling down to early dinner for senior citizen prices at the cafeteria?!! I'm calling AARP on you and turning you in! Yes I am!
ReplyDeleteWe're going to make you wear a Life Alert if you keep this up!!

Wow..that was one heck of a Birthday Brawl....
ReplyDeleteI hope your black eye clears up soon,,,see...housework IS DANGEROUS!!!!!
So what does the other guy look like???
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a great birthday. Get some rest and stop fighting with the Swiffer!!
Hugs!
I dont buy it for a minute Deena! SWIFFER???? Nope...I think you and Rich were gettin...ummmm..."Frisky"....or as the young people say~ 'jiggy with it'?....YOU know what I mean! LOLOLOLOL
ReplyDeleteYou look MARVELUOS girlie!
Okay, stand back from the Swiffer. No more "swiffering"! Put that bad bad boy in the corner for time-out.
ReplyDeleteYou still look pretty in pink to me!
Hugs!
Kat
I agree with Kat... no more swiffering for you dear friend. But what fun you could have thinking of different stories to explain what happened. When asked about what happened to your eye you could always just say, "I guess my husband can't take a joke!"
ReplyDeleteSmiles!
Man Deena, it looks like maybe the swiffer won!! Sounds like quite the birthday you had my dear. I am so happy that you had a wonderful day. Now stay away from those swiffers.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
LeAnn :)
you can label this birthday as the year you got a black eye for your birthday...
ReplyDeletesounds like you had a memorable and fun filled time...
Love,
Mimi
Hi Deena, that must have been some celebration! That's quite a shiner you've got there. Anyway, glad that you had such a lovely time.
ReplyDeleteYou're gonna look awesome-er when the black eye turns purple. haha. I'm laughing with bittersweet pumpkin where she said that housework is dangerous. Hold that thought!
ReplyDeleteOh Deena these comments are hysterical!! Your poor eye! But you still look beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness you weren't vaccuuming!
Big Big ((HUGS))

My mouth dropped when I saw your picture. I am so sorry that you got a black eye sweetie. I am glad that you didn't get seriously hurt, but it sure looks like you did. I hope you have a restful evening. I am so glad that you got so many treasures!!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sharon
Deena, your the only woman I know who looks good with a black eye! So happy to read about your wonderful birthday fun! Get lots of rest and don't do anymore floors, or dusting, or toilets, or...
ReplyDeleteLove to you! Hugs too...

I hope the swiffer looks worse than your eye. LOL! Sounds like you had a great birthday! Renea
ReplyDeleteDear D...I wonder what the Swiffer looks like now?!? Your sweet little eye...I got a fat lip a couple of months ago from a dog's friend that startled and bit it, so I just joked around at church that the hubbie hit me and then of course everyone said it was the only way he could keep my quiet and not talking...ughh...I still think you look like a fairy princess! Glad to see that you came throught the moving and shaking. Toodles...Angie
ReplyDeleteOk - I have to ask you....Why are you swiffering? You silly girl and your poor eye! I hope you feel better soon!!!!!!! You are so loved, sweetheart!
ReplyDeleteoodles and bunches of love,
Becky and Doogiepiperdoodledog
Oh your poor eye...I wonder if your platlets are low from the chemo..??
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work fighting!
Sue
Deena,
ReplyDeleteYou are beautiful even with a purple eye. And I'm so glad you are being pampered a little. I can see you had a wonderful birthday.
Take care, dear friend. Prayers for you daily.
Love and blessings,
Mary
Girl you are taking "warrior" to new heights!!! You will have some wonderful laughs when you look back on these photographs!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, our bodies do bruise so easily on chemo...next time you see that swiffer, give it a "one/two" for me!! ;)
Happy Birthday a little late, Deena! I'm so happy you were pampered, but darn the black eye!
