Hello Family and Friends,
I can't believe it's almost a week since I posted to the blog!
I have to admit it seems like a long one with some frustrations for me! I just HATE to take pain pills.....yes I know nurse Cathy Mallow....said your body heals faster when you aren't in pain!!
So I keep taking them!! I have been able to back off the last couple of days with 1/2 pill at 10 a.m. and the other half at 4 p.m. and a whole one when I go to bed. So I know I'm gaining on them!! Thursday morning a special friend, Juanice Ward, will take me down the mountain for my first session of "blowing them up"!! Lloyd says he could use a compressor lot faster than the next 6 wks. will take....RIGHT!!.....NO....WRONG!! Oh my!!
It has been so awesome to have Michele, our daughter, to come up this week and help with the office work....another great blessing! I was impressed that her husband Derek wanted to learn how to make invoices in the software! But DEREK gets a BIG STAR for effort!! The day of my surgery he got in the software and made a "sort of'" invoice for a walk in guest!!! Way to go Derek!.
Well today is special because we celebrate our freedom! So many men and women have sacrificed their lives for what we have today. Their families were left with out fathers, mothers,sisters,brother, uncles, aunts and cousins....they were never the same family again! For that I give them honor and thanks...which doesn't really seem enough.
Yesterday in the mail we received a bumper sticker from Dr. James Kennedy's Coral Ridge Ministry in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. The sticker says..."LET THEM PRAY". We were appalled to hear that the chaplains in the military are not allowed to pray..."in Jesus name"!! I think the 2 worst words that was ever introduced into the English language is "political correct"...what a sad day for our country when that happened.
Well didn't mean to get on the 'soap box'....yet maybe I did!! Find a veteran today or tomorrow and give them a hug!!
I continue to be amazed at all the e.mails and cards that are still coming every day!! I've certainly learned that my feeble one card sent to a friend during an illness is lacking....when I'm receiving 2, 3 and even 4 from the same person.... you my special friends!! It's such a pure joy to know each of you. Praying God's blessings are falling on each of you too!
I've had many of you mention about having trouble sending e.mails to us here in the blog. If you do...just send them to me at donnaclaypool.earthlink.net. Sorry about that!
God Bless America and Each of You,
Donna
