Maybe I’m Amazed?

Posted on by

A quick post to let people know what’s up.

I’m in Washington and my grandfather has done a complete 180 — we didn’t think he was going to live on Monday and now we know that he is. They got his meds fixed and the speech therapist taught him some swallowing techniques so that he can now get some nutrition. He gets out of the hospital tomorrow and will be in rehab for probably a month. My mom and her siblings and my g’ma are figuring out the long term care situation right now — probably home healthcare stuff?

For those who have prayed, THANK YOU!!!!! Your prayers have meant a lot to me and evidently, they’ve worked!

Thanksgiving: The Good, The Bad, and The Furry

OK… my Thanksgiving:

The Good
-singing “Earth and All Stars” for worship
-the FOOD!!!!!
-being with family
-being able to get spumoni
-mushroom risotto for lunch followed by more spumoni

The Bad
-having wicked nausea/cramps during worship on Wednesday night
-the [insert nasty word] who drove for 40 miles behind me tonight with his bleeping brights on
-the headache from person mentioned above
-almost hitting Bambi last night
-the number of people at Wal-Mart on Thanksgiving night!!!!! (this wasn’t even for Black Friday)

The Furry
-Fred and Loogy (my aunt and uncle’s cats)
-the fleece I got at Wal-Mart to make into blankies for Project Linus in honor of my parents for Christmas

Over I-15 and Through the Buttes to My Aunt and Uncle’s House I Go

For the first time in 6 years, I will be spending Thanksgiving with part of MY family. (It’s the first time in 5 years that we’ve spent it with either of our families.) After worship (which is in like 30 minutes), we’ll pack and head south to Great Falls. My aunt and I will cook. Jon will replace the taillights on the Volvo. (He who smashes them out fixes them. :P)

Tomorrow I will go torture the nice people at Joann Fabric on Black Friday and get the fleece for two Project Linus blankies. (I already have one crocheted.)

So… Happy Thanksgiving to all and hopefully all y’all who are travelling get to wherever you are going safely.

Please Pray

Jon’s little cousin Libby is in the ICU with asthma problems. Please pray that she gets better.

I’m off to make a get well card for her!
