Saturday, July 19
Morning Early morning was a little “messy” but resolved with amazing nursing team, followed by… A most welcome visit from a pastor-friend from church, a welcome encouragement for both J & A. I moved from hotel to Airbnb in anticipation of a post-discharge support for a day or so before I’m Minnesota bound. Afternoon As…

Friday, July 18
Afternoon (updated 5:46 ET) J slept a solid (for a hospital) 3 hours with no nausea: PRAISE! They turned the suction back on at 1:28 pm. At 2:24, the doc came to check it. He said, “Since it was 1:28, let’s check it at 2:30 and assess.” He came back 2 minutes later and said,…

Why I Am in NYC
Because they didn’t tell me NO. And for that, I am grateful. My child had major surgery. Then an unreasonable number of complications followed (anything over zero is unreasonable). When they told me of the second surgery, I called and asked if anyone would be offended if I came out. I was on a plane…

Beat the Diagnosis
Most of us know the thing that is our health challenge. We just try to ignore it. I couldn’t get out of the bed; no energy, and my gut was all sorts of jacked! What we need to do is beat the diagnosis before the diagnosis!

Don’t worry, be-… (September 23, 2013)
Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. Jesus said that. I read it today. I needed it. Such impact when I read it, thought I’d share in case you needed it, too. By the way, it’s John 14:1. When you saw the heading, you thought I was going to…

I’m Younger (July 24, 2013)
For every high school graduation I’m invited to, I decided years ago, I am another year younger. I should be back in my mother’s womb by now, I suppose. Doesn’t matter how much I want to stop time…or at least spray retardant on it…it keeps accelerating. Apparently, so does my daughter’s speaking ability, cute factor,…

Hello, my name is Chubby. (July 22, 2013)
Remember the “Hello, my name is Chubby” silliness we did as chidlren with our cheeks pushed forward? I thought of it today because there’s one version of a “Chubby” that has Chubby on a motorcycle with his dad and the wind knocks back his pinchable cheeks as he yells “Too, fast, Daddy!” Well, I heard…

Even Bad Days Are Good (May 29, 2013)
Ethnic Man hurt his back playing ball. Sadly, it was hurt more than he realized. Two visits to the chiropractor and today we got an MRI. Results in the morning. Please keep him in your prayers. [Please don’t see this as selfish…me talking all about ME and MY stuff when my hubby is hurting. But…

Albums and Movies (May 28, 2013)
I’m a child of the 80s. Does that mean I was a teen in the 80s and born in the 70s? I think it means the 80s culture was my formative time, when my senses were alive to what was going on all around me. Regardless, my point is the same. The 80s were a…

Happy Purple-Practice-Day! (May 11, 2013)
I am not old. My definition of old has always been 1 year older than my grandmother, which is now 93, if my math is correct. But to prepare you all for what 93 is going to be like, I’m wearing purple today! And sharing one of my favorite poems. Then I’m going out with…

Milestone Tuesday (April 30, 2013)
I’m still here! Alive and kicking! Things have been crazy, nutty, busy with snowstorms, thaws, more snowstorms, ice, and a few snowstorms along the way. There was the trip to Moorhead for the Concordia College Day of Percussion (fabulous experience!) and there was the God showing up in full force at a MOPS meeting (supercalifragilistricexpedalidocious…
