I’m listening to Rockin’ Ron Cade’s Elvis and Friends radio show as I do every Sunday morning. Very slowly I am getting ready to meet Erin at Barnes & Noble. We will get a coffee and then go to HMart. I want to buy a 1/2 ton bag of frozen edamame soy beans. I also need mangos and kiwis.
Yesterday the weather was perfect. Absolutley perfect. Lisa and I took Bo to Tyler State Park and we walked and walked and walked. It was lovely. In the morning I baked banana bread for Joe and Judy, our neighbors from across the street. Judy has cancer and is not doing well. I figured banana bread might cheer her up. That’s rather simplistic, isn’t it? “I’m in terrible pain and I am close to death but DONNA BAKED ME BANANA BREAD, HOO HA!!!!!” At least I try.

Donna:
Don’t underestimate how much your visit may have meant to your neighbor. A lot of times when people have cancer, friends don’t stop by anymore because they’re uncomfortable interacting with someone who they know or suspect is terminally ill. I think what you did was very thoughtful and I’m sure your neighbors really appreciated it.
