The Tumor Card

Since the findings of my tumor, I've been treated so marvelously. Lets face it, you don't want to treat someone who could potentially have cancer like crap. My phone has been blowing up, too. Yes, most of those calls are from my mother, but still, I've delightfully heard from peeps I haven't spoken to in awhile. The best part though, was last Sunday. It was the day before my biopsy. For the first time ever, I went to a winery!

The exciting part....Kevin is the one who took me! =)

He is a non-wine drinker. I'm sure it didn't hurt that his client owns it and got him tipsy off some wine the week before at their meeting (I heart wine drinkers), but still, it was wonderfully surprising. He even drank just as much wine as me! We shared a bottle and it was yummy. There was live music in a very quaint garden gazebo. Aside from the heat, it was perfect. I wished we could have ordered another bottle and chatted with the band guys longer, but we wanted to get home before Kaiden woke up from his nap. Ahhh, parenthood.

Later that night, we even went to Joe's Crabshack (one of my favs). Here's Kaiden waiting for his food. Notice the fork in his hand. He cracks me up!!

It was a great day that really made me feel special. I didn't necessarily play the "tumor card" for this day, but maybe I should start to get more days like it! ha!

So, my question to you is: After surgery, how long do you think I can get away with playing the  "I had a tumor" card?? =)
