Does this look like a packing list to you?


Time tunnel - Portugal, September 2011
 Dear Self:  

Don't forget -

1.  Two-fer coupon book for Victoria restaurants and pubs.
2.  Camera, chargers, USB cords, IPad, IPod, IPhone, IShadow (hee hee), batteries.
3.  Sizzling new porn book from Sue (50 Shades of Grey - Dr. Oz recommends, must read).
4.  Earthenware pizza stone and cutting wheel.
5.  Package of Stilton cheese with lemon rind (on sale at Q-Foods this week!).
6.  Yoga mat.

The sheer lunacy of this list excites me even when it brings me up short with the realization that... oh yeah... I'm supposed to get treated for cancer while I'm there too.  Bummer.  Is this what you call denial?  Or is it just a refusal to miss out on some really good stuff?    As one of my dear friends and fellow survivors counseled "If you can't find anything to laugh about, you're not going to have any fun having cancer."  I hear you, Lew.  Three days until my "RAcation" begins.  The packing list continues to grow - but in the right direction, I think.

    Magnificent POD, Cath! Awww, new pictures of the 'boys', too.
    And a great quote, Lew! Appreciating the absurd and funny (and the absurdly funny) will make even this journey a little easier to bear. That ain't denial, it's making the most of it!
    Now tell me about the Stilton with lemon???

      7. Don't forget your cheering section who will be with you every step of the way, looking forward to your fabulous pictures, insights, humor and quotes. My goodness, I sure won the genetic jackpot when I got you as my sister. XOXOX

      P.S. Tried to upload a great picture of us, but was unsuccessful. Removed comment and tried again. Obviously I don't have the Blog skills of my sister!
