I’m thankful today for getting a jump on my packing for my cruise. And for a relaxing bath, which was needed, although I aspire to be able to relax as well as Barley one day.

Today I’m also thankful for my friend Teresa whose birthday is today. She’s been my work and cancer cohort. She’s one of the hardest working people I know. She is also sweet, smart, and strong. I’m grateful for our friendship.
