It's been a year.

It's been a year since we started chemo, again and at times it seemed like ten years.  At other times it seemed to pass fairly quickly.  This past Tuesday was my last 'chemo' treatment and now I'm into follow-up mode.  So it will be six weeks before I go back and it's going to be a little strange not going to the Cancer Center every week.
Pam and I went to see another movie.  This time it was Jackie Chan in The Spy Next Door.  Not great but at least it was clean.  Probably a good "made for TV" movie but not a 'we're actually going to pay for this' kind of movie.  Anyway, we got our normal buttered and salted bag of popcorn.  And thanks to my wife's functioning brain (as opposed to mine) I took along a plastic glove to use.  It was great, for me, I was able to eat salted popcorn without pain.  For those who may not know my hands have splits and openings all over them because of the drugs they've been giving me and popcorn has been a painful experience.  The other side of the coin is this.....Pam and I were the only ones in the theater.  But where I sat it looked like 10 people were eating popcorn or more accurately missing their mouths.  So I had no pain but apparently the gloves messed with my aim or with what I could hold on to.
Remember, everyday is a gift.  How would our days be different if we acted like everyday was a gift?!?!
God is good all the time!!

Romans 12:1 So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life - your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life - and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.  (THE MESSAGE: The Bible in Contemporary Language)
