THURSDAY OCT 23, 2008

GREETINGS FROM SUNNY COLO,

THE SUN IS SHINING,ITS A LITTLE BRISK BUT LOOKS LIKE IT IS GOING TO BE A NICE DAY. I STARTED THE DAY OUT STARTING SOME LAUNDRY, I HAD SOME SOAP IN THE CAR THAT I WANTED TO USE SO I TOOK OUT SOME TRASH, GRABBED THE SOAP (7:30 AM) AND HEADED BACK, WELL I FORGOT MY KEY TO THE OUTSIDE DOOR AND THERE I WAS,HANDS FULL AND COLD. LUCKY FOR FOR ME ONE OF THE WORKERS WAS IN THE OFFICE AND LET ME IN WHILE DOING SO SHE LOCKED HERSELF OUT OF THE OFFICE, SO SHE CAME TO THE APARMENT AND HUNG OUT TIL THE OTHER WORKERS STARTED COMING TO WORK. INTERESTING WAY TO START THE DAY HUH? MOM AND KAYLA ARE COMING TO SEE US SO WE ARE GETTING READY FOR THEM!!!! I COME DOWN AND PLAY ON THE COMPUTER AND BRIAN CLEANS, CANT BEAT A DEAL LIKE THAT!!! WE ARE GOING TO COY AND HANNAHS TONITE TO WATCH LUKE FOR A FEW HOURS.

YESTERDAY WAS A LONG DAY BUT MADE IT THRU. THE BONE BIOPSY WENT WELL, THE WORST PART WERE THE FOUR SKIN BIOPSYS, ONE GAL WAS CUTTING THEM OUT AND THE OTHER STITCHING THEM UP AND 2 NURSES ASSISTING, IT WENT ALOT FASTER THAT WAY. THEY KEPT ME NICE A COMFORTABLE WITH DRUGS!!

I GOT A PHONE CALL EARLY THIS AM FROM THE CLINIC AND THEY FORGOT TO TELL ME YESTERDAY TO DECREASE MY STEROID BY 20 MG!!!!! THATS GOOD NEWS.

TALK TO YOU SOON, LOTS OF LOVE BRENDA

Well sounds like you are having a interesting week if nothing else. I bet it will be good to get down and see your little boy. Sounds like Brian is trained well! You are such a lucky gal to have such a great assistant! I guess you have put in your time it seems about right that it should be your turn to take a break. Hope everyone is well. Sure enjoy keeping in touch

HELLO FROM COLD JACKSON,

ACTUALLY THE SUN HAS BEEN SHINING BRIGHT BUT THE AIR IS COLD. IM SORRY TO HEAR THAT THEY CANT FIGURE OUT THIS RASH. SEEMS LIKE AS MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS, THEY WOULD HAVE SEEN SOMETHING SIMILAR. HOPEFULLY COMING OFF SOME MORE STEROIDS WILL HELP.

HAD TO CHUCKLE ALITTLE ABOUT THE LOCKING OUT STORY. IVE DONE THAT A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE AND BEEN STUCK OUT IN THE COLD. NOT FUNNY WHEN IT HAPPENS BUT FUN TO GIGGLE AT.

SURE GLAD MOM GETS TO COME VISIT I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS FOR HER TO BE AWAY. IF EVER YOU NEED ME TO COME STAY FOR AWHILE I SURE WOULD FIGURE SOMETHING OUT. PLEASE ASK IF NEEDED.

I BETTER START DINNER. WE LOVE YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH. WE ARE PRAYING LIKE CRAZY AND WILL BE WAITING FOR ALL GOOD NEWS.

LOVE TO ALL, RHONDA & ELYSSA

Boy did I sound like that old PMS thing was rearing it's ugly head yesterday! Talk about crabby and here you are taking things so gracefully! I need a good slap in the face I guess! You keep up the great spirits and I will keep praying for you-will try to call while I am in AZ since I just might have a moment or two to myself-yeah!!! Sure miss that wonderful smile of yours-Love and prayers to you Trudy

Hi Brenda,
Sorry I haven't left you a comment in a while, I have been checking in though and of course Mittster keeps me up to date! Things have just been so busy with kids and everything but never too busy to drop a line to the man upstairs with you being the main topic of conversation :)
Bible thumper of the day (and also one of my favorite)is Matthew 6:34--Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Or, the get real version (that means my bible verse translation)"If you've got one leg in yesterday and one leg in the future, you are just peeing on today". I'll check back in soon, take care and I sure miss seein yo' mug round here LOTS!!!

Hi, hope you continue to get good news. I'm sure that your mom will be glad to see you as I'm sure it is really tough not to be with you everyday. I will be leaving Delta tomorrow morning. Today has been more than interesting as Kirk and Leigh's sprinkler system froze and blew up the backflow preventer so Leigh and I are frantically trying to get it fixed so we can blow out the system before I leave. Kirk is in Cortez for a football game and Leigh leaves at 3:45 for districts. It is now 1:30 so what do think our chances are of getting it all done!! Roberts' car started on fire last night and it pretty much melted to the ground before the police and the fire department got there. He was coming home from the big golf thing at Pine Hurst in North Carolina and it just caught on fire. Thank God he was ok. Never a dull moment down here! I think I'm ready to go home!! You guys take care. We're praying for you Brenda. Love, Amy

Hi Brenda! Surprise it's me. I've been keeping you in my prayers and finally have this address to stay in touch. Sorry I've been behind. Going through some sickness myself and just got back from Mayo. I think I'm on the right track now. Take care of yourself. Love you!

Hi Brenda, First time I've had computer access in a week. I'm in Marquette, Mi. visiting with Beth. It was cloudy today when I came accross the Mackinaw Bridge. Still beautiful, though. Saw Lake Michigan and Lake Superior. Spent all week with my mom and dad. Drove around northern Michigan looking at the colors. They were so vivid. The oranges and reds are something I've missed. Anyway, I had to catch up on your blog. Sorry to hear you have been having such a rough week. I've been thinking about you so much. Brian, sounds like you are keeping things under control. Love, Helen

Courtney said...

Hey Brenda,

I haven't been the best at keeping up on how you are doing, and I get updates from Mom and Dad. I have been praying for you everyday though!! I question daily why we are all thrown such life defining struggles, and I have yet to figure it out...the only thing that I know for sure is that someday it will all make sense.

I love ya!
-Courtney
