More Thanks to Friends & Family

Donna speaks:

June is a busy month for the Langley family. My mom and brother Scott have been working non-stop at Point Breeze Motel and Cabins in the Adirondacks to give the place a polish. Ed and I feel very frustrated not being able to lend a hand. Unfortunately beyond our control. My son in law Matt has been hired part time up north to assist my brother with a new camp roof, dock repair, and refurbishing a vintage boat house. Matt has also helped me move our old living room furniture to "Camp Chipawyck". This is the camp that my brother Jim and I are renting out to vacationers for the summer. (Because our old TV died - we were forced to purchase new living room furniture to go with our future new flat screen).
A huge thank you goes out to Linda D. for taking an entire day to go up to Indian Lake to organize and clean Camp Chipawyck. Thanks to her help, we are ready to rent. On our way to camp, Linda had dropped off a meatloaf and tray of brownies for Ed to enjoy while he kept an eye on the river at home. A very tasty dinner for the healing patient!
Thank you also to Paul and Colleen T. for having us over for a gourmet meal of salad, shish kabob and s'mores last week. A welcome evening get-a-way for us, and a chance to forget our troubles. As we left that evening we were handed a large shepherd's pie to enjoy for the next few days.
We also need to thank all my former in laws who have been constantly supporting us and checking in with us. We are fortunate to have such a wonderful extended family! Thank you to Carol and Jim F. for the Mobil gas card that has been used for the many trips to and from chemo sessions and doctor's visits.
Finally, please make sure you check past Blog entries, because Ed sometimes adds "shout outs" and "thank yous" to older posts. If you spot pictures on the blog without commentary - you will know that Ed will add his wit and wisdom later. We always appreciate your readership and support!
