{ hopeful ME }


1: desire with expectation
2: expect with confidence
3: TRUST;
4: be FULL of HOPE
5: believe that anything can happen: if you do - it can!

An adorable picture of my MOM wearing that hat I gave her. {I'm glad Sam can't read yet!} Today she is having surgery to remove the cancerous tumor & kidney. Today I am full of HOPE. Hope that she will BE just FINE.

** Late breaking news...her surgery has been rescheduled (for sometime mid-week)...her surgeon's flight was canceled from Hawaii. So the wait continues. Back to the mat I go.

*** Stay tuned for my post tomorrow on my goal for July as NO SPEND MONTH. Can, Jenny, ME, not spend any $ during the month of July with the exception of food & gas? I'm feeling up for the challenge. Are any of you?

I LOVE THAT HAT!!!!! I love your idea about a no spend month - we need to share ideas about that! Only problem is for Steve's birthday....of course he is always just wishing that I won't spend money, so maybe that can be my gift to him! XXOO

bummer about the delay in surgery but there always seems to be a reason for things like that.

you know I am up for the no spending challenge...with one exception, my son's birthday is in July and he is holding out for a guitar.

yikes, july 1 is tomorrow!!

Hi Lisa - I know - I thought about that too! You can give Steve the 12 pack of Fat Tire I sent for him! That's all he WANTS/NEEDS for his bday! :) We have our anniversary this coming weekend and told Will he ain't getting anything from ME - he was DELIGHTED! He said {no spend month} was the BEST anniversary present - that and getting rid of all of the stuff we don't want/need in the house - he is just as tired of picking it all up as ME!

Thanks to all of you for your good wishes. Will keep you posted about my mom.

xo, jenny
