Good Night...

My nephew Andre, he is launching himself and his group

July 1, 2015

I cannot believe is  July already.  And it is very hot in Utah this June,  It has been the hottest June ever in the State of Utah.

Well, I got some pictures of my house, tonight is with a votive that lights up what is by it.  I love the reflections.

Next week is the 4th of July and we will go to my mother-in-law's house in Provo, to spend the day there, eat BBQ, ice cream, salads and desserts all day long.  I won't be able to spend the whole day there.  I still get too tired, specially when we will be outside in a 100 degrees temperature

My daughter will go for a while, and then they will head home.  They have another get together with her husband's family.  Starting next year they will take turns, one year at grandma Burgess, another year at the Strong's  I will miss them.


Tyler will come for a bit also.  Depending on what Holly's family will do.  It's sad when your kids have to divide themselves between families.  It feels lonely to me.  I am really having a hard time with this.  It makes me feel that there's no more purpose for me to be here on earth.

I am happy in general, but there are things that I need to get adjusted.  I guess, I would say "come what may, and love it".

When you grow old, there's so much to adjust to.


Here goes another picture of my home

and some more....

My brother-in-law John, made these two pens for us.  One for Mike and one for me.  He used an old  pear tree that was at my father-in-law's yard, and was cut down.

I had a long post for today but I lost it and I am a little tired now to start again.  May be tomorrow

June 26, 2016

Today was not a good day.  My car again, stopped working.  We need a new thermostat and that will take care of it, if not we might have to get a new radiator.  Cars, we need them so bad here in the States.  Not enough public transportation.

I am feeling really tired and somewhat melancholic.  I guess it will get better.  It always does.  It's so hot now, summer started in Utah, and it's been really hot.  It will be in the 100's for several days next week.  The 4th of July is coming, I am excited about it, to see the family but not excited to sit around all day in the heat outside   We don't stay for the fire works.   We used to when our kids were little, but not any more.

Is like I am trying to find myself.  I need to find something to live for.  Something that will motivate me and is not things.   Is people   I feel happy when I am with people.

I have a nephew that is making it big time singing with his group called Mile High Drive.

Andrew West.  I gotta find a way to post here his group  Next time folks

For today, life is great!!!  I love God with all my life, He is the author of me still been here on earth with my family.  I am happy today!!!

Me, with the wig

Me, my hair is coming back

When I lost all my hair due to chemotherapy

I am back

I finally finished chemotherapy and radiation.  Chemo was done on December 31, 2014 and radiation just barely 2 months.  I have had an MRI to my brain, a pap smear and a colonoscopy and all came negative for cancer.  So, I can say that I am cancer free for now.  My oncologist said that I have high possibilities that my cancer will return.  But, for now, I can say I am on remission

It was a hard year, chemotherapy was very hard, some times I vomited.  It was done every 21 days. I lost my hair, now is growing back.  I am still fatigue, but that will be for a while as I recover from the chemotherapy.   I have several doctors appointmenst for a while, but then it will start every year.  The first 5 years are crucial for me.  After 5 years, if the cancer does not come back, I can consider myself cancer free   Now, I will enjoy life.  Enjoy my family and friends, and just take a day at a time.

As you can see,  my grand kids have grown.  They are my life  and they are coming to see my husband for father's day this Saturday.  I will post more another day.  Have a great night <3

I am very tired now.  I will return when I get more energy and probably more news and new stuff to post.  Thanks for your patience

I am suffering of chemo brain.  I just forget every thing, even if that happened one minute ago.  Oh well, part of cancer treatment that will go away in time.

we went to the mountains and saw lots of deer.

I am really suffering from Chemo Brain.  It's real, I couldn't believe it, but I am living it.

They have continued to grow.  Kate is a little mischief, Landon liked to play computer games with his uncle Ty and now he has earned a White Belt at Tae Kwon Do.  I am so proud of them

It's been a while since i wrote on my blog.  I noticed that my flag counter is gone and my revolving map too.  I finished the chemotherapy and the radiation.  I haven't seen my doctor yet, On April 10 I will see her.  I probably will be told that my cancer is on remission.  I survived.  Chemo was hard.  Radiation not so bad.  Now I have to start living life again.  I will post more in a little bit.
