### I'm here, really I am

I've just been busier this last week than I have been in a long time. I do read Chateau every day. It's one of my, taking a moment for myself, times. Thank goodness it is Friday, I can now catch up a bit with life- and school- which will be my life for a while. The teacher I have been subing for came in today. It will be a while before she will be back. The cancer is stage one, thank goodness, and there is a fantastic chance she will be beat it. But, there is a lot to happen before that. It was actually quite difficult to listen to her tell her class- as a group we went through two boxes of tissue. My goodness- the memories! I am so grateful I could be there. She talked to me quite a bit afterward and is so grateful there was someone willing to be flexible. I am pretty sure I'll be with them for the next two weeks, at least. She will be having a surgery next Friday and will be starting the chemo the week after that. At that point, she'll understand better how she will react and the decision will be made whether she will be back, even part time. So this weekend will be lessons plans again until I can get a grip on fifth grade- which in many ways is quite different than third.
I don't have a recipe yet to place on line. It has been a while since I did something quite that entailed more than opening some box or freezer bag!!??! I'll give it some thought. Jenafer, thanks for the prayers and I do have to say Heather's barbie dress was fantastic. As for the news- Anna Nicole and soccer- have you seen the snow in New York!?!?!
Love you all,
LaDale
