Queen up!

Lucky me!  I just got the new Ashro catalog in the mail.  

Along with the catalog was a card with the words:

Okay, Lisa....Queen up!  Love,  Marvin and B.J.

Along with the card was a fabulous caftan and scarf.  I love feeling like a queen!

I know the scarf is supposed to go around my hair, not my neck, but a queen has to have a trach cover!

The catalog said the clothes are all about "keeping you fit, fierce and focused!"  I felt fine, fierce and happy, too.  Thanks, Marvin and B.J.!

 

P.S.  Marvin is the reason my brothers and sister and I get together for reunions every other year.  We copied his family's way of alternating who hosts reunions.  Thanks, Marvin.

Nothing like Earth, Wind and Fire back in the day.  B.J. and Marvin, this one is for you.

Lisa,
You look beautiful and so much younger than the rest of us short-storiers!! (Sorry, Jenny, Sandy, Sue, Ann, Hollie) In fact you look more like Natalie's older sister than her mom! Must have been that "Cape-come-what-May" excursion with your man, Marc, that produced that glow. I am so happy to see this lovely photo of you, Lisa! Love, Jan

p.s. that title- "Cape-come-what-May" - is so
good!!!

I have been thinking about you alot lately, and decided to sit down after work today and read your entire blog, and look at your beautiful photographs. As an ex- oncology nurse, I understand what you have been going through, although no one can know what you have been feeling, or experiencing since the day of your diagnosis. Thank you for sharing some of your deepest thoughts, fears, humor, and how you have been encouraged.Thank you for keeping on, keeping on, traveling and visiting with your dearest friends and family. I admire your poise, beauty and graciousness in the face of adversity, and most of all, your positive spirit. You are an inspiration to me and I wanted to tell you . I will contine to pray for you and Marc, that God will give you strenth for today and bright hope for tomorrow. Dana

Thanks so much, everyone, for your comments! I did feel so happy in the outfit! Can't wait to wear it more when it warms up around here a bit. Never knew before I would be able to 'work' a caftan! Or that I had an inner 'winter in palm beach Diva' side to my personality. Thanks again, Marvin and BJ.

Wow, you can rock a caftan! You look beautiful and fierce! You continue to be an inspiration-making everyone around you smile. Thank you!
Keep on healing and getting stronger each day. I can't wait to read about your next adventure. I just added Cape May to my list with the Huz.
