I was a bit down in the mouth yesterday, so I didn't write anything for the blog. I was just having a nice pity party, missing my boys and my hubby, missing my dog and my bed (Hmmmm I should turn that into a country western song.... ). All I got done was unpack my stuff and take a shower. I didn't leave the apt all day, just sulking and feeling very sorry for myself.

Today I woke up and still wanted to do the same, but I knew it just was terrible to do when I have SO many blessing coming my way. I missed going to church a lot today, as I really felt I needed the uplift-ment it has to offer,  but I did read my scriptures and thought about the incredible gifts God has given me.

I have just an amazing close and extended family, my friends are dear to my heart, I have more prayers coming my way than I could even count, I swear I can actually feel the tumor is shrinking, I am in a safe and beautiful area to receive this treatment, my doctors and nurses are among the best in the entire WORLD, my boys are well taken care of, and I just needed to get off my tushy and be grateful. With those ponderings, I felt it was really necessary to apologize to my Heavenly Father.  After that,  it was just impossible to stay down in the mouth.

Thank you again my dear family and friends, for all your prayers. I really am thankful for them.

I got out of bed, got dressed, and went for a walk to explore the neighborhood. I am so glad I did. I got to see the LA marathon runners go right by me! I also got to see many cute shops and restaurants as well. I found the local post office and grocery store and even found a couple good short cuts to the hospital.  It is only about a 15 to 20 minute walk to the cancer center, so if I am at all feeling up to it, I want to walk as much as I can. Even if I had a car around here, parking is just terrible, so I would probably end up walking still!
