I do know, because I just went through my second bout of ovarian cancer. I also have thyroid cancer, so another surgery is due. Take care of you and your hubby.

I don't have a lot of autumn decor either, but what I do have is special to me. The little rug of yours is cute, patriotic little birdie.<br />I admire you for taking on another photography challenge with Lightroom and know you'll do well. I think I've found my comfort zone with the several free editing programs I use and hope to improve my food photos after reading your links.<br />Rocking on the front porch sounds cozy to me, enjoy your weekend.<br />JudithJudith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-40099391505824498992013-09-21T07:19:25.456-04:002013-09-21T07:19:25.456-04:00Thank you so much for the update.

She ran to the Internet and read that they can quickly starve if they cannot get out. So she put some sugar water near the top of an open door and eventually the little thing escaped. I was so tickled by how Erica could not let it go! And the Lord, who sees every sparrow that falls, will not let your Jim go. He will be Jim's strength and comfort as he will be yours. I'm so happy with the good report. You've both been almost constantly on my mind. Many prayers have been breathed for you! Take excellent care of yourself because as soon as you have a few minutes to stitch together, I have a burning question to ask you!
