I am thinking … and praying for Cindy's Godmother who is in the hospital with a ruptured appendix and an abscessed gal bladder which is ready to rupture. She is stable but will be sedated for the next forty eight hours while the IV antibiotics work to enable surgery to remove the gal bladder
On my mind … and also in my prayers is Mike who worked eighteen hours yesterday only to come home get two hours sleep and go back to work four hours early this morning.He just called to say that he will be home at his regular time but will go to bed after dinner ( for four hours) so that he can go back for a double shift tonight
I am thankful for … Delphi offering and Mike being able and willing to work the overtime so that we can live a little more comfortable as well as afford to do some repairs that need done to the house
I am hoping … and praying that the procedure that has once failed, will work on my upcoming surgical date( march 4th) so that I will not have to have the major surgery that will be done immediately if the procedure fails again
Noticing that … Clancy and Isabella (are starting to get along pretty well and even playing lately
From the kitchen … I baked one batch of friendship bread(coffee cake) today which consisted of two loaves of cinnamon strudel ,one loaf of banana nut with chocolate chip , seven mini loaves of the same, and two loaves of cherry cheesecake. I am also in the process of making beef stroganoff and homemade bread for dinner
A few plans for the week … I have three more batches of friendship bread to mix up and bake as soon as I can fit them in with my full schedule this week
Around the house … Mike and I are planning to do some floor covering work in four rooms, stain my secretary desk, replace an old garage door, and a host of other improvements.Mike did use this weekend off to replace Robby's ceiling fan( the globe fell and broke and since 13 is really too old for a crayola ceiling fan anyway, we decided to replace the fan)and also replace our outside light that got cracked., filled up with rain,snow and sleet, froze and shorted out during our December series of snow storms
One of my favorite things … Is seeing one ( or all) of my children so happy that they are bubbling over. Unfortunately two, well actually all three at one point or another have had some disappointments within the last year and are now working to get where they had hoped to already be. I can't wait to see their happiness when this long awaited and worked for events arrive.
A picture I am sharing …
