Another day.

 Some days are just crazy with unexpected things.  So...this morning the good old routine of waking up early....4 am...That's not so good but a routine.  I'm wondering if I'm thinking to far ahead about the Monday Doc. appointment.  Who knows?  Paper reading, breakfast and a little TV and then out the door for the 30th radiation.  2 more to go and then it's BELL ringing time.  This morning included a PT session with the soft tissue Denise still trying to get the fluids back where they belong.  We're looking at some sort of brace things to wear after the skin is back to normal. The skin is very tender now and easy to harm.  Then it was home but a dark rainy day and for some reason it was a tired time with naps.  Lunch and then finally a walk in the garden between rain showers discovering that once again there was a chipmunk waiting to be moved to the woods.  So the car took me to the woods but the car also indicated that a tire needed air.  So...to the Honda shop to have some air added.  WELL...someone named PDAR drove over something as he took the computer back to the shop this morning for some questions that needed answers.  So...it was an hour and a half spent with Mr. Honda.  I forgot my phone to call Mr. PDAR about my adventure.  When I finally got the car back home I handed Doug the bill to prove that I hadn't been to the garden shops.  His only comment was that he thought I perhaps had decided to take that chipmunk to Copper Harbor.  Well, my reply was I would have stopped in Midland Michigan first.  

So what more can happen...I'm ready for a little less drama.  

Some other news.  I heard yesterday about some health problems that another one of our choir members is having.  So...sorry to need to share this but I must.  Susan Alley is heading toward her 9 hour surgery Friday June 4th.   She will have surgery for cancer of the tongue.  It will be a long recovery experiencing many new ways of healing that area of her body.  It will not be easy as she well has been told but her I U North doctors have told her that she will get through this.  They will be with her.  Others have recovered from such surgery and she will be one of those.  Knowing that friends and communities are praying for me have been so helpful.  Words just can't convey what that has meant to me.    Susan will feel that as well.  

So Today I feel like I'm Marching to Zion...Beautiful, beautiful Zion.  Not in death but in life.  I tasted a hint of the strawberries in my milkshake today.  Just a hint but it was there.  Peace and Joy to all of you readers.  There are many.  I am blessed.  Today and the days ahead, surround Susan with prayer.
