Honeysuckles Breezing with a day out

I was able to have a day out with Larcy and Harley for the first time since a week ago last Tuesday when I came back from the hospital. WOW. It was fun. We headed to lunch at a Chinese Restaurant where Harley was beside himself at the chance of freedom! Yes, Oliver Pup had to stay at home, so Harley had Larcy all to himself..... Woof Wo0f

A lovely slow lunch with no place to go, no place to be, no appointments to keep.... could get use to this idea...

After lunch, Harley decided to explore the restaurant beginning with a sailing vessel,

A conversation with a very wise old man and doing his best Buddha impression,

And after that, it was decided to leave our Asian oasis and head over to the book store where I wanted to find a book featured on Imus in the Morning, The Emperor of all Maladies, which you can find over at Amazon. Click on the link and you can read the reviews about this ancient ancient disease. From the book,

"It was in the time of Hippocrates, around 400 BC, that a word for cancer first appeared in the medical literature: karkinos, from the Greek word for 'crab.' The tumor with its clutch of swollen blood vessels around it, reminded Hippocrates of a crab dug in the sand with its legs spread in a circle."

Once again - check out the reviews. I am now waiting for my brother and nephew to drive from St. Louis. They will be here late tonight. Wishing all of you a Happy Thanksgiving. Remember there are so many things to be grateful for and if you aren't - you better start a gratitude journal! Here is a tag from Jill's "What Cancer Cannot Do:"

In closing, Harley wanted the last word (geez)... his motto today is to "keep on trucking, putting one foot in front of the other, head held high, a song in your heart, a glint in your eye, and a smile on your face!" Hugs to all!
