More of Life's Hurdles.

That's what it feels like today.

I'm not complaining, but maybe just venting a little (please forgive the vent)

Today is a bit more difficult to put much into my sites. Oh, I have been working on them. But I am trying to focus on the sites while Fire sleeps rather peacefully next to me. Remember I said she had some problems?

The vet called with the biopsy results and it is carcinoma lung cancer. Thankfully, it's primary and doesn't look like it has spread yet. That's the good news.

Unfortunately, it may be too close to her trachea to allow for successful surgery. "MAY BE" is an important point here. We are scheduled for a CT scan in a couple of weeks (soonest available) and from there they will decide if surgery is an option. So I'm still hopeful. And Fire is still happily at my side as I work on my sites.

I'm only getting half as much done as I'd like. But half is better than none.

And that's the point I'd like to make today.

Sometimes life throws hurdles. They may even become a mountain you need to climb. And that's ok. Jump or climb. Take a break when you need. But...

NEVER GIVE UP.

A break should not become permanent. It's just a time to catch your breath, take a mental nap, or maybe even a physical nap.

Use that to come back with even more determination and a renewed sense of "I can do this!"

Today was not quite a wash for me. But it certainly wasn't the productive day I had planned. Tomorrow might not be, either. I hope it is, but if I need to take Fire out for ice cream, then I will set up her car seat and away we'll go! We might even take the Golden Boys, Charlie and Bolt, with us.


We have more memories to make!

But then, I'll regroup. My plans are not lost, they are just resting a bit.

Do you ever take a break before jumping those hurdles?
