Yes, I'm Still Here``

But life has kind of gotten in the way of blogging. Here are the highlights:

• I celebrated my 2 year cancerversary on June 16
• My son completed 7th grade, which means 8th grade, which is almost high school, which means driers licenses, going to college, meting a girl and getting married (because that's where my neurotic brain goes!)



Kyle and Reilly at the St. John Carnival

• We spent 9 days on one of our boats in the British and US Virgin Islands. The boys and Jeff went to a carnival in town, and that night we saw the fireworks there on the 4th of July at Caneel Bay, St. John, USVI
• I've had several doctor's appointments. Yes, we are still trying to find out what is causing my pelvic pain
• Reilly spent the last week at zoo camp, and this week he's staying locally at my mom's

The rest of the summer is just as hectic. But two amazingly awesome things are happening in August! First is our first wedding anniversary, and we are taking an fabulous trip. I promise to provide details and pictures once we're back home.

Next, and I'm so excited for this I am literally doing a daily countdown, is Cervivor School Louisville August 19 - 21. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Cervivor and Cervivor School, you can read about it here, here, here, and here. There is still time to register.

In addition to the usual events of Cervivor School, there will also be a Pap Rally and Run.
This is a 5k run/walk to help raise awareness about cervical cancer and HPV. To find out more about this event, click here.

My other big event for the summer celebrating my first anniversary with my husband, Jeff. We had no plans to get married. We felt that we didn't need a piece of paper to say we were committed to each other. But my having cancer changed that, and suddenly that public commitment became very important. I've written before about what cancer gave to me, and my marriage to my best friend is the best of all.

I'm pledging to start posting regularly again - and I will definitely have a lot of material to draw from! Thank you to those who keep coming back, even when I'm a bad blogger. I need a place to work through my feelings, and you give that to me.
