Smile!


What a difference a few days makes! Friday evening, a friend took me to the Nets game. Not only did we get some great seats, but we also got a personal tour of the club under the stands which is reserved for season ticket holders and of the locker rooms. A great evening for a basketball fan, even if the Nets lost!

On Saturday, my brother and his family came to visit and my nieces stayed over Saturday night. My kids and nieces get along so well – it’s a joy to have them. We also got a chance to take a nice long walk in the woods, which is always great for the soul! And, best of all, my side effects have been minimal, my energy good and I even have an appetite! It couldn’t have been a better weekend!

So, while in such a good mood, I thought I’d share this picture Vicki took of me yesterday! I’m sending a smile your way because you guys rock and I want to share some joy. In today’s tough economic times, there’s still nothing better than good friends, good family and good food! Enjoy your week…BB

Glad to see the smile. As much as you enjoyed the weekend, we enjoyed being with you. What a difference and what an appetite - 2 sliders, a sandwich, and soda bread, just while I was looking.

Greetings from State College library computer center. Hope your chemo yesterday was uneventful. Love, Mom

Hey Brian! Glad to hear Round 8 is over and done. I'm bummed I didn't get to see you at Superbowl (alas, working as always) Everyone said it was really great to see you. I too went to a basketball game recently (Rockets/Sixers) I, however, am not a b-ball fan. I prefer to watch my brother-in-law watch the game than watch it myself. He's the gen'l mgr of the Rockets, so every bounce of the ball has some significance. It's really fun. My cousin says he once kicked the couch and broke it!

Anyway, I do hope we can manage a "meet and greet" sometime in '09! Maybe when the weather gets nicer, I can venture to climbs north...

Take Care - Vicky

Hey Brian -

Great to see your smile! Sounds like you had a great weekend.

We should try to get the lunch crew together soon for an outing to feed your appetite.
