Hi all, just a note to let you know that although I won't be at my desk, I won't be far. Like most of us, I will be vacationing close to home with daily trips. Four out of my five kids and families will be in for Grandma Camp as it has come to be known. Fishing, boating, food, and family fun is all on the agenda and those amazing 2 pound marshmellows that are out now- haha! I am happiest when all my chicks are home and will miss Mike as he is in the Air Force in Italy but he will be close in thought. I live for these times and even all the confusion. The house seems pretty empty sometimes after having had the bustle of 5 kids with friends running in and out most of the time. My last one that is home, may be out the door very soon for Florida and thinking about the holidays alone is something I just don't want to consider. Loss of any kind is difficult but at least in the future I will have a chance to go visit and see them again. Cancer doesn't always afford that opportunity so when you are having your next family gathering think about others that are alone and set another place at your table and share the moments that we all cherish. Reach out to others and make their day. S
