Pigs & Pancakes - What are the Odds?

This is definitely karma...or just a really weird coincidence, or both.

A friend of mine has been telling me that I should read another mommy blog called "MotherThoughts" because she is a fan of both our sites and thought it would be cool if we linked up. Recently, without knowing the connection, MotherThoughts posted my husband's article that appeared in the Sunday Globe Magazine, see here. In essence, we linked without even knowing it!!

It gets even stranger. It turns out she too was diagnosed with breast cancer the same month I was! I mean really, based on the number of blogs out there, what are the odds? It always feels weird for me to type "cancer" because mine is consider "pre" and stage 0 and I somehow feel like I'm a fraud compared to others who have to endure so much more. Either way, even though we are strangers, I am hoping we can be a resource and comfort to each other in some small way.

Finally a sunny day. Tom and the girls are out rollerblading and I am supposed to be writing a column that was due two days ago. Here I am instead blogging away. I think I'm just avoiding choosing a topic to write about since I have several rolling around in my head but none that are screaming to me as yet.

Going out to dinner with a girlfriend tonight. I'm really starting to cherish a couple hours of adult time whenever I can get it. And I'm making sure I schedule it in more and more. You'd be surprised how much it can do for you. No guilt here. My kids get plenty of me.

Enjoy your Sunday. More tomorrow.
