Post-Party

We didn't dance.  And because of all of the talking going on, we heard very few of the songs we collected from people around the world (thank you for your offerings, though - we're sill listening to the colorful, varied, and heartfelt songs you suggested).  But our house was full of people we care about, our rooms and backyard were full of laughter, and we indulged to our heart's content in drool-inducing food from our favorite restaurant (Ali Baba Grill).  It was heavenly.

Michael and I went all out and wore patterns and bright colors!  (Yes, we do sometimes wear more than khaki and blue and black and white.)  

Left:  A good friend who looks twenty years younger than her age.  Right:  Me, looking at least a minute younger than my age.

Sometimes it feels like MCL is chewing us up and spitting us out.  This is not an easy road, but it's made much easier and richer by the love and support we have. Thank you!

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. - Lao Tzu
