in the meantime, we have spring...

it sure has been a rough last few months around here...

and we're not completely over whatever it is that we caught...

but there is light at the end of the tunnel...

and while we were down in bed...

spring happened sometime last week...

at least we didn't miss it completely...

DH started back to work today, not sure if that was a good idea or not...

I am still so weak and sore...

I puttered in the kitchen some this morning, but it just wore me out...

I want to thank you all for every kind word and prayer...

sometimes there are just days when you wonder why God keeps you here at all...

and this last week, I have battled the devil left and right...

mostly over the internet...

I was ready to just walk away from all of it...

but that's what he wants....

isn't it?

that sucker really kicked me when I was down...

made me feel sorry for myself and angry much of the time...

like we didn't matter to anyone at all...

not one helping hand came along...

even though all three of us were down...

but, we didn't need them...

all we needed was God anyway...

he never failed us...

as long as one of us could open a tin can, we ate...

we helped each other up...

with meds and showers...

I am not normally a whiner...

just not my style, but this past week, boy...

did I whine...

I complained...

then I got mad...

after I figured out who I had let in and let have full run of the place...

I still have a hard recovery to go here...

but it's going to be a lot easier without outside interference...

and as soon as I can, I will be around to see you all...

taking it slow...

but trying to get back into the groove, one step at a time...

one day at a time...

if you have a black cloud hanging over you...

send him packing...

life's too short to let him stay too long...

you've got more important things to do than give him the time of day...

;)
