Today I go to the memorial service for a colleague, Melanie DeBord, from Donovan School. She died over the weekend of cancer. The memorial takes place at 2 pm with a reception to follow. Everything else pales compared with your health. Cancer is a horrible enemy, one that has now taken my mother, my good friend Fran, and many other special people. Melanie was a good person, a dedicated teacher, the mother of two sons. Many people will miss her. Bob has a dental procedure today, so I'll go by myself. I didn't really know her that well, but I pray that she now is at peace joined with her creator.
It is too warm to be outside today. I just got back from walking Essi, and I was wringing wet. Too bad all the moisture in the air as humidity can't fall to the ground to water the plants. They are all desperate.

Cancer is mean, rotten, nasty and I have lost loved ones to it, RSG fought it and won (so far)and should be one of our highest medical cure priorities.
I do not like the hot weather, and am so thankful to be able to exercise in an air conditioned environment.
I am halfway through a book I just purchased dealing with self-discipline (willpower)
Easy to understand, easy to agree with, still difficult to do. I will be writing tidbits from this book in the coming days.
Good! I would like to hear the tidbits. Yes, I know that more people are fighting and winning now than in the past. They are getting better with treatment, but I want a cure to that evil disease! We are both cheering RSG on!!
