Good Vibrations
The title of my post is the "fault" (LOL) of a fellow blogger who mentioned the Beach Boys and that song stuck in my head. I was thinking that a lot of people are going through a lot of things right now and are in need of some good, positive vibes. My father in law has to have day surgery at 1pm today and there's others out there who are not well or are going through life changes that need happy thoughts. I found out last week that a woman in another department has been diagnosed with uterine cancer (stage 1). At Emmett's work, the manager's wife has lymphoidic (sp?) cancer and another co-worker's daycare provider has breast cancer. I heard that it used to be every 1 in 4 people will be diagnosed with cancer now the statistics show it is every 1 in 3 people. Scary thoughts. In my circle (including Emmett's workplace) I know of 7 people who had or have just been diagnosed with cancer. We were discussing this at work and we wondered why the statistics have gone up. I'm sure it's all the factors we came up with; STRESS, environment, additives/genetically altered food, and how we do not look after ourselves properly. You just do not know what one day can bring so enjoy life and what it brings you each day.
On a happier note, we had a great Valentine's Day. Kazuo came home with a bag full of chocolate, Valentine's and toys from daycare. What I want to know is...is it wrong to raid your son's goodies?? I think I ate about 1/4 of his chocolate. LOL. In my defense, yesterday was the first time my soon to be 22 month old has had chocolate so I was merely "helping" him eat it. Is that a good excuse? I did buy Valentine's Day heart shaped cookies for us all so he had one of those while he was going through our gift to him which was a Thomas the Tank Engine book. I think he was more interested in the book than the cookie! LOL and no I did not eat his cookie. He finished it in his own time. I have to agree with you Elizabeth, Valentine's Day is overblown. What it comes down to is the love you have for those close to you. Do you really need a day to tell them that when you can do that every day with a simple "love, me" after an email or "xo" or "I love you". All I really need is a kiss and hug from my son and life is pretty darn good.
Anyway folks, I have a day ahead of me and more to do before heading into work this afternoon. Healing, positive vibes to anyone who needs them and keep the faith folks. Life will get better.

Nice post Ann, as far as cancer goes, and you know I have an interest in that, I think it is a combination of things, but high on the list would be pollutants - amazing some of the things that harm us that we have developed, used and forgot about. Talc for one.
