Jumping Into June

I can hardly believe the calendar now reads "June". May came and went before I could blog 5 times! Understandably, I've been preoccupied with other urgent issues. Thanks for keeping up with my slow pace- you are a faithful bunch. Somewhere in the last few days, my 50,000th reader made an uncelebrated appearance!

I'm currently in Northern California, where the sunshine is warm and so is my heart. Family time is so cherished, especially under these circumstances. Derek is doing really well in-between chemo treatments, and consuming an absorbant amount of Jamba Juice (sheesh, I thought I was bad!). I've had time with friends sparingly over the last few days, as time at home is a priority on this trip. However, when Chris gets here this weekend, the party will be unleashed!! (It's that time of year again...birthday cake, lots of candles...too many candles...)
