Hi Rach, glad that Dave is now home! Sorry to hear about the accident! And yes, the Bible says that in the last days that the love of many will grow cold! I hope the person in the other vehicle survives ok!

Also, I read your blog as well, change is hard! Now I know this might not be exactly the same thing, but when I moved 10 miles North from where I was living, it was like I was in a whole different world! It took quite a bit to get used to. And here you are in a whole another State, and now married to boot! I am still praying for you all too!

Much to Iwoans shagrins!

Rach, I'm glad Dave is home.

Sorry to hear about the accident outside your apartment.

Happy birthday to your youngest. Have fun playing mini golf. I love that game even though I'm hopeless at it!

...... GARY! You've eaten roadkill before????


You know... that accident affected me more than I thought it would... I even dreamed about it last night... The guy's injuries ended up to be horrific.


We did have a fun Birthday Day... full of surprises.... When we got to the miniature golf course... K said "This is so cool, I feel like crying." Bless her heart!


It was a fantastic day....


Another JOY treed from Sharon! Love it!!!


I will have to figure out a way to show it to youngest... she will laugh!


Happy Indiana Anniversary, Mike!!!


Dave was feelin' pretty icky.... he actually stayed in his own apartment and will be there until he's better.... I respect his need for space.... he's not used to be doted over by anyone.... He will move down when he's ready.... I'm thankful that people from his church are keeping an eye on him!


Soon all will be well and we can focus on family and prison ministry....

Hey Rach!

Sorry you've been having nightmares about the accident. Not nice.

I hope Dave's feeling much better really soon. It'll be so good having him with you and the girls.

I'm glad the birthday went so well.

((((((((((((((((((((((RACH))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Praying for you Rach. That really is hard when those kinds of images are stuck in your head.

Continued prayers for Dave.

Glad K had such a great time on her b'day. I sent you an email with a screen shot of my post so you can print it out if you want.

Oh and you are on a Mac at work? To do a screen shot, press command, shift, together and press the number 3. You should hear a click.
Then look for it. It will be labeled: picture 1 png.

Hi Rach, according to Yahoo, it is 70º here right now. I feel a cool breeze outside, so it is not bad here at all.

Just a bit cool.

Bailey has a jacket for when it's cold. He gets it put on at night, and if it's really cold in the mornings, we leave it on him. Once the sun is out and it warms up though, we take it off him.

Yes he is an outdoors dog. He has a room that he can go into that has tiled floors. We've put his bed in there. That's the closest he can get to to being inside. If I had my way, he'd be inside with the rest of us, but it can't be unfortunately.

.... thoughts of Bailey with his coat on make me smile!

I love doggies indoors, too, Trish...


...

Dave... oh (((((Dave))))).... Poor guy... he went yesterday to get the staples taken out of his head... why in the world do they use staples??

Anyways... I counted 64 of them when he was in the hospital...

The doctor yanking taking them out was a resident who needs more training in bedside manor... He was making Dave pretty frustrated during the entire process... Dave then asked if he could get a different prescription for his pain management... and the resident was unsure what to do.... (The first prescription made Dave sooo sick, he quit taking them and has had nothing for all this time.)

Finally... Dave has a new prescription... it will be a few days before we find out if this one works better.... poor guy!


One thing I've been reminded of during all of this.... Men are just not good at being sick! lo!

It's okay, though.... even after living through all this constant pain... he is still praising the LORD....

He will be MUCH better soon.... I'm excited for him to get back to his old self....


You know... going through this... helps me to have a true compassion for others who have been through the same experiences... especially all those women who have stayed by their man's side... (or the men who've stayed by their woman's side) .... not knowing if or when their love will get better...

I think the LORD truly gives us strength and courage during these times....

I'm thankful for this experience.... I truly am.

Dave is a much stronger person than me. I have constant pain too, and it feels like all I do is whinge. Somehow I have to stop that. I should be praising the Lord, but don't feel I can.

..... Dave gets 2 minutes of whining.... (same with me!) because feeling like we are heard and validated is very important.... any longer invites us to stay in a place where our heart is in risk of being dragged away from God... ya know?

We do our best to stay positive....

.... which can really REALLY be a challenge sometimes!


(I think Dave is stronger than me, too.... I really respect the journey he's been on... )
