Altun Ha ruins, just North of  Balize City

This has been a great day.  My girls (granddaughters) came for lunch, such an upper.  Today another big leap, went to cancer cntr. with Bill and Janene and picked out a couple of wigs and the cutest little caps.  Since I was told by the nurse that this chemo would definately consume my hair and definately, yes, all of it, so I decided to take this big leap and be prepared for the inevitable so the next step is to get it all cut off soon and move on.  What is hair anyway, a lot of work and cost so the good side is no more bad hair days, no more sticky hair spray to clean up off  the floor and counter, no more hair cuts, however,  I will miss  Dawni, so I will just have to go into her shop and visit.


Story and thought for the day

One day a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people live, They spent a couple of days and night on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip,the father asked his son, "How was the trip?"
"It was great, dad."
"Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked.
"Oh yeah," said the son.
"So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?" asked the father.
The son answered: ""I saw that we have one dog and they had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.
Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.
We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them."
The boy's father was speechless.
Then his son added, "Thanks, Dad for showing me how poor we are."
Isn't perspective a wonderful thing? May we have a thankful perspective in all seasons.
