WMMHT: It was warm enough, at last, to sit in the garden with a cup of coffee and enjoy the blackbird singing its little heart out in my neighbour’s tree.
WMMHT: going out for a walk with the family and the dog and joining in with a ball game (when the dog permitted us to…)
WMMHT: My brother arriving, catching up over lunch and then going for a long walk with him and my OH in just our t-shirts & jeans in the sunshine - we even bought some sun glasses in a sale. Mine will hide my ‘missing’ eyebrows in a couple of weeks!

WMMHT: getting my sewing machine out again and finishing a beautiful dress.
Yoga on the patio in my PJs in the sunshine with my 2 bunnies Angel & Elvis running and jumping about
Having my brother turn up unexpectedly and then walking my three collies in the woods on the first warm day of the year.
Shoveling 2 foot of snow from the path to the front door without getting unduly short of breath or having my arm balloon up … Then spotting a large owl sitting in a tree in the park when I was out walking with my dh! xxx
Going out for a four mile walk with the family - the same walk I used to do three times a week dog walking with a friend. Having the energy to do it after a winter of chemo and rads was fantastic!
WMMHT got a tango message for my friend in Gibraltar and we continued a tango conversation as she was on the bus at the border that joins Spain on her way to work. Its always nice to receive a message out of the blue and with this new techno - tango we can have instant conversation and that made me smile and laugh as she shared photos of her girlz today. Have read some of the messages here and that made me smile as I realise that I am not alone in this journey, now comes the tears!! … keep well all of you xx
WMMHT: Seeing people posting on this thread again and getting pleasure from it.
As Applestreet said back in October: this time last year I had cancer. Now I’m NED and life is back to ‘normal’ (as if I was ever that?? :)) apart from a few Hormone Therapy niggles.
Wishing everyone lots of happy moments and few or no side effects from treatments. There’s a lot worth living for!
WMMHT - going back to zumba after 4 weeks off after surgery. couldn’t do my usual bounce along but it was just good to go back and feel the music! plus got hugs from the regular’s who’ve missed me!!
WMMHT - seeing my onc today and being given a letter stating that I am fit to travel so I can go on my cruise 8 May. Was diagnosed with brain mets last month but they are not giving me any problems and I am coping with treatment. To get that letter in my hands was a good feeling. The sun is shining, can’t stop smiling and life feels good today. X
Well done Nannie Spiky, hope you have a marvellous cruise and hope you get brilliant weather.

WMMHT having cuddles with my 3 day old grandson, the smell and sound of a new born is just wonderful x
WMMHT - a fabulous yoga class with Lou my favourite teacher, who modifies some of the more challenging poses for me so I can still join in. Felt a bit low today and had to kick myself up the bum to go. So glad I did - the relaxation made me feel so good I smiled all the way home
WMMHT being able to put my socks on without it hurting xxxxxx
WMMHT or smile - the Sun has come out this afternoon.
WMMHT: Several things:
The Magnolia we “pruned” (= mutilated) back in December is finally showing new buds and signs of life; we were beginning to think we’d killed it!
The frogspawn in our little pond WASN’T destroyed by the frost, as we thought; it’s now teeming with teeny tadpoles!
The sky is blue, the sun is warm and I’ve been reading in the garden soaking it up (some natural Vitamin D manufacture for a change?!) listening to the birds and watching the butterflies. Life is good, and this year I WON’T be starting Rads in 4 days time. This year, I WON’T be having rads on my birthday next week!
WMMHT…sitting in the garden in the sunshine…realising that I was having chemo this time last year and now I’m not…watching my grandson being naughty and laughing becauase I am here to see it…spending time with both my daughters when last year I didn’t think I had any time left…not worrying about anything anymore as life is too short…just enjoying life…
