Life is...

The past few months have not been easy ones.
There has been more emergency room visits than I care to count, IV's, minor surgeries, stitches, high fevers, x-rays, MRI's, tests, broken hearts, etc....


It seems to never end, and at this point, still continues. Whenever I see cherries I think of The Witches of Eastwick with Jack Nicholson. I can't stand sweetened cherries but I love fresh ones. The fresh ones in the movie send quite a plague through the small town and that is how I feel right now with our lives.
The photos are from a bag of fresh cherries purchased the other day. They were fun to eat and a nice break from the typical apples and bananas.
We are going to the ocean in a few days on a family vacation. A desperately needed vacation.

It's so strange when events pile that way. I'm so glad that you and yours will have time at the ocean, which I always find to be calming and restorative. Does anyone not sleep well after breathing the aroma of saltwater for a day?

The cherries are wonderful...I'm hoping for a nice bag of fresh cherries soon myself. (John says he's never eaten them that way. WHAT? That's just crazy!)

Wishing you and yours a healing ocean visit. This too shall pass. There are better days ahead--even if you can't see them just yet.
Thanks for the beautiful cherries.
