Do Something New
Mood:  chatty
Topic: July 2005
Well, today's entry isn't so much about cancer, treatments, blah, blah, but I suppose, it is sorta related.

Yesterday as I was sewing my first bathing suit, with excitement; I went downstairs to show DH (and for those of you that have been asking "DH" = "Darling Husband" although the "darling" can be interchanged with other words as my mood dictates); and he was, as usual, awed at my creation. He asked, "How do you go from shirts to bathing suits, to all the things you make; how do you know." And I told him, "one sentence at a time". I.e., I just read the instructions and do it one step at a time.

And that's how I try to live my life, accomplishing new things, one "sentence" at a time; going through cancer, one appointment at a time. And, if you approach most things like that, you'll be amazed at what you can do!

Don't read the entire instructions (I know,
that's what all the instructions say, "read complete instructions first"), well, I say don't - just take it one step at a time, if you get stuck, put it aside, think about something else, or ponder what your end result should be, make a few changes, and wa-la - your back tackeling it again and another step is completed.

So, here's my idea for you, learn something new this summer, challenge yourself.

And my bathing suit turned out nice, and fits! Yahoo, now to get back to the beach and wear it!
