All the sudden I looked at the calendar and it is the eleventh of June. Huh?

I realize last week was a blur but hey, I have reporting due by the fourteenth!

I think if I can have fifteen or twenty minutes I can get my office stuff done. I guess it is a good thing I am already back up.

It is my intention to go to the parts store today. At least for a while. I am becoming frustrated with my recovery. I thought I would be better by now. I am concerned that I may be developing a low grade fever. Krl is becoming a pro at stripping my drain. It became plugged again yesterday. Twice.

I appreciate Maple Syrple's care and concern, but the little mutt can actually bring me to my knees. Her favorite place to sleep is to curl up in the curve of my back and press really hard into me. This must be something that is tremendously comforting for her but I'm beginning to wonder if she is not playing fair.

About an hour ago, I woke with a start! She got on the short side of the bed (meaning between me and the edge) she began her little ritual of expanding her boundaries, but the alarming thing to me was I could not locate my drain tube or my accumulator. I finally had to get out of bed to locate and untangle and free myself! By the time this was completed, a little redheaded houndgirl was snoring and my place in bed was no longer vacant!

Oh well, I needed a pain pill anyway!

I am trying to figure out the delicate balance of being supportive of Linda and the Kiddos and yet not being intrusive on their privacy. I think that when I arrive in Roscoe I will make a call to Jason. I was not a confidant of Fred's so I don't know a whole lot about what is going on. I just know it has to seem like a massive task for his family.

One day at a time.

Over the weekend I found myself wondering "what do you do in heaven?" I don't believe there is a "register of time". I am hopeful that their is no monetary system or scale. I expect and want it to be "all-inclusive". I guess what I'm asking is do you just lounge around and read or what? Is there an activity director or what? We know that there is no pain, no affliction, no strife. I assume there will be angelic music, and no doubt when you are in GOD's presence you will be in total awe. I know I'm getting a little weird and I'm using too many "what ifs".

I just never have thought about heaven on a day to day basis.

Inquiring minds want to know.

I can only imagine. Will I dance for YOU Jesus, will I be able to stand at all. Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all.

FATHER, we are thankful that you are a loving and caring GOD. We pray for healing, we ask that YOU make our hearts stop hurting.
