I am a widow since 2013 and live by myself in a small apartment. I use a wheelchair to get around, but I wouldn't consider myself disabled. I'm 11 years away from having bladder cancer resulting in a urostomy and I'm doing well. This cancer was a result of having radiation in 1995 because of uterine cancer. So have faith in yourself, a cancer diagnosis is not a death sentence. My first try at blogging was an attempt to help other people with my condition. I am a mother of three married children, and a grandmother to eight gorgeous kids, featuring them often here, and a great grandmother to two as of today, 6/7/25! I enjoy exploring my feelings and like to try the challenges. I like humor, music, movies, games, and some sports. I absolutely appreciate your reading and commenting on my blog. I am happy to read all of your blogs and learn more about you. Please comment however you like, ask whatever, and I'll answer honestly. Thanks for reading! Cheryl
MLMM Tale Weaver – Hansel and Regretel
Her long crooked nose with the decorative wart sniffed and twitched. Something was coming. Her black pooled shiny eyes switched back and forth searching for the fragrant vision and then the smell came closer. Her exaggerated blackened teeth showed through the purple dry cracked spread of her lips as she contemplated her next meal.
Would it be so wrong to play with her food? Just for a bit to study the fright in their tiny faces, enjoy the screams of terror she could produce without even moving her finger? It was her duty as a witch to spread fear, delight in the outcries for mercy, but they were so tiny, should she be lenient this one time?
Of course not, she thought as she tossed her black greasy strings of hair that barely covered her bald head. “Come to me” she beckoned with a long dirty nail. The two children were visibly frozen and moved toward the witch, having lost control of their limbs. “It’s dinner time!”

Visit
“Being in the hospital is so depressing, but your visit is certainly a light at the end of a tunnel for me today. Therefore, I’ll try to turn my thoughts to the positive, and rid myself of doubts.”
“You won’t be here much longer, so try to think good thoughts. You’re going to be back to your old self soon, I promise!”
“You’ve helped me channel my mind to a happier note. Thank you for coming, I’m so happy you decided to visit my room today. Come back soon. You are my big brother and I love you.”

My Thoughts Exactly
Three Line Tales 3-4-21
The deed was done. Harry and Hawkley were out of time.
“But I just bought this car, I don’t want to leave it!”
It’s either that or the big house, Harry. The plane to Mexico’s leaving now!”

Oh oh🙄
She brandished a smirk
To confer to her lover
A forgotten birthday –
He’ll never recover.

Eugi’s Weekly Prompt 3-4-21
I placed the catcher at my bed
To keep my dreams til morning
Feeling your soft touch in dreams
Always disappears in dawning

This natural passage
From the hard gray existence
Through difficult echoes of life
Surrounded by hard truths
Is the pathway of life
The opening is visible to those who choose to see it
The reward is being able to pass through
To a smooth, more pleasant uncontentious peace
Wisdom
Invisible to the younger eye
Who may not see the variable,
Choose the strain of defeat as hapless.
An older person can see beyond the foibles,
A life long pattern that indicates life
The ebb and flow of success and failure
And take it as learned experience.
