Friday Things #563
1. I love this girl ๐ฉท
2. I’m so happy to share that Dominic’s scans this week were clear! This marks 18 months of remission for him ๐ Thank you for all of your continued prayers and good thoughts for Dominic and our entire family.
3. Joseph has been sick this week, and Judith is such a great nurse… but seriously, the warm weather can’t get here fast enough!
4. While we were in New York, I started a new book, The Favorites (it was one of the featured books on Book of the Month a couple of months ago and I grabbed it). It’s about an ice-dancing team, and oh my goodness, I blew through half of the book while sitting through two of Dominic’s scans. I am completely invested now in seeing how everything unfolds!
5. I’ve seen this multiple times now, and it’s just amazing, so beautiful:
6. If you are looking for homemade meals for Fridays during Lent, here are some of my favorites: homemade pierogi, beer-battered cod, crab cakes, coconut shrimp, and tuna noodle casserole.
7. From a recent James Clear newsletter:
“There are two ways to live a longer life:
1) Biologically. Extend the timeline between your birth and your death.
2) Psychologically. Fit more lives into whatever time you are given.
Make each decade rich with experiences and perhaps you can live a handful of lives before you are done.”
8. Even as a Pittsburgh sports fan, I love this so, so much >> Alex Ovechkin to Donate to Pediatric Cancer Every Time He Scores
9. What are you watching? We’re currently catching new episodes of Reacher and 1923, as well as the season finale of All Creatures Great and Small!
10. TGIF!ย These two have been playing a ton lately! The old guy still has spunk!

Great news about Dominic’s scans!!! Hope Joseph feels better soon. It seems like one of your three is sick most of the time. I’m one of five & I remember when we had chicken pox – Mom put us in separate rooms & ran from one to the other with calamine lotion. Man, I could never do that!!
Have a good weeiend. You’re a great mom.
Thank you Jesus, ย for answering our prayers for Dominic.
Such good news about Dominic! I’m sure your family is feeling such relief. Thanks also for the book recommendation! As a former figure skater it sounds like something I will really enjoy! That being said, I am also a huge Hockey fan and grew up with the CAPS and can not wait for Ovi to catch and pass Gretsky. We have been lucky to have him and he makes the game that much more fun to watch. I loved when I saw that he was going to donate to Pediatric Cancer for each score!
So happy about the news about Dominic!
Thank you Father for answered prayer for Dominic. Hope that Joseph is now feeling better. The dogs are so sweet. Our Westie Ellie Mae is on the road to recovery after taking both ACLs in her back legs chasing a squirrel.Have a ย Blessed Weekend. So looking forward to spring and getting into the garden.๐๐ป๐ป
Oh my gosh, wonderful news about Dominic’s scans!!! ย So, so happy for you all! ย I similarly feel your anxiety as my husband has cancer and gets scans on a regular schedule too. ย Continued prayers for Dominic’s good health and for all who are on this cancer journey! ย P.S. Your dogs are simply too cute playing together!ย
Two thumbs up for Dominic!! He is one special kid for sure. I can only imagine the anxiety the accompanies these appointments. Hopefully, as time passes, it will lessen.
Blessings to you and your whole family!
We’re rewatching Game of Thrones on season 6th episode nine. Watching 1923 too. ๐ Wish they would get rid of some of the craziness on 23.
