One day, two posts, three?????...

 Yesterday there were two posts. So many reasons to celebrate.  My mind just doesn't stop thinking about the long list of people who have walked the walk with me.   My hope in the coming days and years is that I will never forget those who prayed for my recovery, those who worked so hard in medical school to learn the techniques that let to a longer health life along with those who provided all the supporting roles now that continue to be around us who are working toward a better health life no matter the name of the struggle and a God who walks along side.  

So today of course the garden has been walked.  The flowers are enjoying the cooler morning with just a mist of rain now and then.  I'm blessed to have a place to spend healing time  that I enjoy so much.    

The week is full.  This morning a trip to church to do some decorating with a new theme.  Friends will be there to help.  

Now for Doug...This guy has been patiently waiting for good news about his wife.  And yesterday of course there was bushels of good news.  So...the hernia is on the front burner.  Doug has been so careful about his eating habits.  Small portions are the best and believe me they have been small resulting in some weight loss among other things.  So the good news resulted in a call to his surgeon in the afternoon with an appointment scheduled for next Wed.  It's onward and forward with the next chapter in this big book of life. Yesterday Dr. Moore shared that there still is a slow down in optional surgeries, one reason being a shortage of surgical nurses. So I guess we will find out if the surgery at this point is optional.  My hope is that  it is not.  This guy has got to be fixed.  To bad it will not be our call.  

So once again the song is I owe the Lord a morning song of gratitude and praise, for the kind mercy He has shown in lengthening out my days.  Thanks Mom for singing that song so often.  It fills my memory bank often.
