DEFEAT Cancer

There are so many things I want to write about this morning, but time is limiting me.  I woke up feeling and looking like a small truck ran me over during the night.  I could barely get out of bed.  And no amount of cold water, under eye serum, or anti-aging cream can help the exhaustion that seems to be exuding from my eyes.  I will be certain to sleep lots tonight as I get to go home to MN tomorrow afternoon and need to be rested and healthy for flying.

A quick update as I have attempted to post meaningful posts over the past couple of weeks and I keep getting stuck.  Next week however, I am starting a class through the cancer program at the hospital called "how to write your story."  I am excited for this and hope that it will help me get my thoughts on paper.

Last night was the first DEFEAT cancer meeting of the year and it was incredible!  I felt inspired, supported, and happy.  There were orphans from Peru and Liberia there performing song, dance, and music as they spread the word about the orphanage that is helping them.  What beautiful souls these children had and such joy to share with us!

And then, Brad, founder of First Descents, spoke to the group.  And I am IN.  As soon as I am done with work today, I am on that website to find the week that will work for me to join in on an adventure of a lifetime.  Watch out, my dream of becoming a surfer might just come to fruition....

And so many more things are happening right now, like I am back to work, but I have to walk to the bus station right now so that I can get to work.

I feel that good things are going to come in 2012!
