"Summertime"

Well, it's summer vacation! Praise God! The chemo is over, radiation is over, herceptin will continue till October - I cannot believe that it has been almost a year since I was diagnosed with breast cancer! How time flies! I am actually looking forward to my mammogram in August - all clear ahead or should I say abreast! I am back exercising at Curves 4 or 5 times a week - my workout strength has gone from 199 to 367! I cannot believe how quickly I have bounced back. I am feeling great! I just hope it continues!

I miss Kindergarten! I miss the "Good Morning Song", the children - their hugs, smiles, and questions. Recently, while at recess on a rather windy day, a little kindergartener asked me,"Mrs. Elorduy, can you feel the wind blow your hair yet?" "Well," I answered, "not quite yet. But soon I hope!" I have often wondered why she asked this question! Did she enjoy having her blond curls tossed about in the wind! You now, when I think about it, I do miss the wind blowing through my hair. I will never complain about a windy day again!
