Well… yesterday I woke up with my back, neck, and shoulders on fire. I went for my healthy walk and ran into my P.A. on the way. He exhorted me to continue my healthy walks and to keep icing my hip. I’ve been pretty good about doing it (though I could be better) and I also got my neck and back worked on yesterday in PT. Last night, I was walking through one of the parks and a couple of my kids from church tackle-hugged me. I have a cellphone-shaped bruise on my hip but it was worth it. (I love my church kids so much, especially these ones. They draw me super cool pictures during the sermon. :))

Today, it was stormy out this morning so I got up and did devotions and checked Weatherbug (to see how much longer the rain would last) before going back to sleep. I woke up at 11 with an icepack on my hip and three of my allergens curled up around me. I did get my walk in as I had to go deliver some stuff to the bank and I took the long way home. After I’d showered, one of our church council presidents came over to ask if there was anything he and his family could do to help. We have a car loaned to us so we’re pretty OK but I was really touched that he asked. Other people have brought us vegetables from their garden and other food. When I called to thank one of the families, they said that they were just glad that we weren’t seriously hurt because they really love us. I was fighting back the tears because it was such a sweet thing to hear. [/sappiness]

Prayer would still be appreciated because we’re waiting to hear back about the state of the car.
