It's been such a busy day, so much happening. A co-workers father-in-law passed away yesterday so our work load was heavier minus one. He had cancer and it was so sudden and quick. She was helping with arrangements for a nursing home stay and then a return home. Now he is gone. It is best not to suffer long but it still is hard to say good-bye to a loved one, given over to cancer. He had taken the chemo like they said to and it grew instead of shrinking. These things happen, we lost my mother-in-law to cancer, I still hate that word......
Then I was reminded of my commitment to rechartering the Cub Scout Pack and Boy Scout Troop paperwork. So many calls but alas with just a few minor glitches it is almost done.
I missed the inauguration standing in line at the post office today. They are so slow sometimes, our branch is anyway.
I did take time to make a few ATC's just to clear my mind. These are my journal entries for Misty's challenge. I do love being creative everyday.
The first ATC posted here is being sent tomorrow to a new friend on Associated Content. Lorelei wanted me to send her a Valentine in response to my Send A Valentine - Just Because post on AC. This is a grown up valentine of sorts.
So if you haven't guessed by now my word for today is friend. Do something nice for your friends today, tomorrow, everyday. Be sure to remind them of how very important they are to you.
Have a great evening,
Tess
