Whew!

The spots were just spots, so no cancer! Mom was tested for the BRAC gene which is the breast cancer gene, and she tested negative! Yeah! At least we know that it is not genetic, but as the doctor said, cancer has no rules. So now we just have to be diligent in our check-up's.

On another note we (meaning me and my husband) to cancel our cable TV subscription and go without it for a while. TV seems to be a slow acting poison that is the cause of a lot of things not getting done in our household. Dishes, sleep etc. Even Hayden is already conditioned to watching TV. So now we will stick with DVD's, and maybe even try other things, like READING! I have not read a book in so long. I am working on my crocheting, and would like to expand my knitting to things other than scarves and dish cloths. Even Hayden will have to use his imagination, and as parents we will definately be more engaging. Now our Saturday mornings will be spent doing something else besides watching TV while eating breakfast for 2 hours. We won't be totally without cable in our lives-both are parents have it, so if we need a fix, we can just go over there.

So at the end of the month-we will say good-bye to cable. This will put an additional $80 in our pocket, we may even use that to join the YMCA. That way Doug and I can work out and Hayden can be in kid watch, and take swim lessons.
