GO BEAVS!!!

Well today is a very big day in Corvallis and Oregon. The Oregon Ducks are playing the OSU Beavers in the annual civil war game. But there is much more at stake than the inter university rivalry. If the Ducks win, they will play in the national championship game. Needless to say the town is rocking. I am going to stay warm and watch the game on TV.

I had a marvelous Thanksgiving in the Bay Area with three generations of Bloomfields. There were 15 of us at the table for most meals all week as we rotated between homes. I came home exhausted but feeling like it was a very special time.

I am feeling so good. I have to pinch myself. My face is finally healing up from the ravages of the drug and the cancer surgery. I am able to sleep and eat well and each day have a little more energy. I feel so blessed to be able to have this time and am savoring each moment.

With the holidays upon us, I am going to stay pretty close to home with celebrations and time for friends and family in Corvallis, on the coast and in Portland.

For now I will be posting about once a week, unless I get some really cute photos of the kids from Thanksgiving.
