T Tuesday: Think Pink edition

think pinkToday is October 1st…you know what that means.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

This is a cause near and dear to my heart. My mom is a survivor. She had cancer in 1968…before I was born…heck, before my parents even met.  She had a radical mastectomy and prayed for the best. The best is what she got. That was 45 years ago.

squeezeIn a little while I’m heading to the salon for a haircut. I’m having my gal put in my pink streaks in honor of my mom. This will be my third year of “going pink” for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  I love that people ask about my pink streaks and I get to remind them of Breast Cancer Awareness.

We have company coming in from Wisconsin this evening. They are staying with my in-laws but we are hosting the evening meal. So much to do…so little time.

What are you doing today?

    Thanks for the reminder, just getting back form the beach and all the cleaning and laundry had pushed it out of my mind. LOVE the pink cup and the idea of pink streaks is very clever.
    Happy T-day

    Your day was far more interesting than mine, and far less stressful, too. Before I could stop by your blog, my computer hung up. When I got back online, I couldn’t get any page to load, not even my blog. So, I shut down, and made a late lunch. Then my kitchen sink plugged up. Still working on it, but needed to resume visiting my T friends.

    Sorry I’m late getting here. I bet right about now you’re serving the entree to your friends and family. I always love it when you put those pink streaks in your hair. That’s a great way to honor this month AND your mother. And pink is the perfect color for T today, too. Thanks for pink T, even though your host was late, late, late!
