Cancer: A Horrible Word, A Horrible Disease
Wow, what an awful topic... but so much in my life right now!
My wonderful Hubby had some skin cancer removed late Oct (first time for him) my brothers have had to take care of that many times but it was a first for him and the word is just an awful thing to hear!
My beautiful cousin and my partner in crime was diagnosed with Breast cancer in mid November. She had surgery and has more treatment to come.
And last My Wonderful Uncle Chuck was diagnosed with a fast growing aggressive brain tumor a week before Thanksgiving. He is 85 years old and has driven up until a month ago. He is my God Father (the Cert above) and is a WWII Veteran. He is a Christian and he knows where he is going. He is the last of four brothers to go home. He has so many there that will welcome him with open arms. I can just see those four brothers sitting in there lawn chairs out in the front yard having a beer. They will be together again.
I will miss him with all my heart!

About My Last Post
A lot has been happening this year!
In April I decided to go into business for myself... I needed to be able to make my own work schedule with both of my daughters getting married sooooo......
I went full circle... In 1984 a friend and I opened a nail salon in Barstow, CA, called Fancy Fingers. I was pregnant with my first child, went to Barstow Beauty Academy, was state licensed as a manicurist and had my daughter all in the first 6 months of that year. A year later I gave up that salon and started working for a salon closer to where my hubby and I lived and about 8 months later started working in my home as a manicurist. At that time I was pregnant with my second child. I worked from my home for most of my girls upbringing. Sooo...
All these years later, never thinking that I would work as a manicurist again, I decided, with the encouragement of a friend, To Come full Circle....
I opened: FANCY FINGERS PLUS!
This salon has a little more to it than the first salon... of course I do nails (manicures, pedicures, acrylics, wraps, nail art, etc) there is a tanning room and that friend who encouraged me... she is a Certified Massage Therapist, so she has her own room that she works out of... BODY THERAPY BY ANGIE!
Without My HUBBY and that wonderful FRIEND, FANCY FINGERS PLUS would not exist!

Two Traveling Angels....... Another Email worth blogging about!
I read my nieces blog and was inspired to use this email as a post. She works so hard and feels it gets her nowhere. I just want her to know that life is worth all the hardships as well as the wonders!
So here is the email...Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.
The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room.
Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.
As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what they seem"
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife.
After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.
When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears.
Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field.
The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen?
The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused.
The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die...
"Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied.
"When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall.
Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it."
"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife I gave him the cow instead.
Things aren't always what they seem."
Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every out come is always to your advantage. You just might not know it until some time later...
God's Blessings,
Sharon
I love the tapestry analogy: when we look at our lives we see the back of the tapestry with all its knots and string hanging (because we just don't know everything and the whys that make up our life) but when God or our loved ones look down on us they see a Beautiful finished tapestry (because they see all the reasons and answers that make up our lives). That is what we have to look forward to when we get done with what God put us here to do.

Thankful Thursday
Thankful Thursdays are all about taking the time to appreciate all the little things or big things that actually went right during the week and not focus on what went wrong!
This theme is possible because of the inspiration of another blogger, Pam at http://pamperspective.blogspot.com/
1. I'm so thankful... that both my girls are doing well in their new ventures. I am a worrier, and I will always worry about them, but I know God is looking out for them. Thank you Lord!2. I'm so thankful... that I have had wonderful visits with my family this summer and I am getting more starting this Sat. through the hunting season!
3. I'm so thankful... that my Boo is having such a great time at daycare/pre-school! He came home the other day with a leaf man that he made and a painting of Fall trees. He is getting so big and I am so proud of him and his Mom... he can count to 5 now!
4. And of course... I'm so thankful... for my hubby who forever puts up with me and vice-versa.
5. I'm so thankful... for all of you who read my blog and leave comments... Thank you so much!
I know there is so much more to be thankful for, but I am going to leave it for now and get my house ready for more company!! WooHoo!!!

What I've been up to... this summer
Playing and going for walks with my Boo!
Yellowstone Park!
Family and Dane's smoked ribs, Mmmmm!
Gunnar loves riding in the back... and Mom is small enough to drive!
Quading in the Big Horn Mountains (the most beautiful place on earth).
And then of coarse, Taking care of my Boo! He is becoming such a Big Boy! Talking up a storm, putting words together, trying real hard to make full sentences. And best of all, he finally is calling me by name and he says his name... no more confusion between Gamma and Gunnar. Phonetically he pronounces his name: Gungar, just sooooo cute! He has my heart tightly clinched in his little fist and that is OK by me!
