Dad called Tamie & Kevan last night to chat a bit. He got granddaughter Maggie's blog address so he could follow her progress playing professional basketball in Denmark. Dad sat down this morning and read all the pages of the blog, I showed him how to comment, so now Maggie can count on Grandpa checking in now and then.
Pat & Don (mom and dad's dear friends) called this afternoon and that left dad chipper. He enjoyed that chat very much! Thanks!
Mom is more awake today than she has been. We had a nice visit this morning before the first morphine was on board. I love it when she says my name and tells me she loves me. I think the oxygen is helping her feel a little more clear minded, although temporary.
Dad went outside and whacked the dickens out of the wood. He has 7 rounds left and figures he needs a chain saw for these last few. He expected last weeks wind to blow down a new tree so he'd have a new pile to work on. So far no new trees down, but there are a few leaning so there is still hope.
May we fix our eyes on the eternal Joy purchased for us on the cross of Jesus. No matter what difficulty today or tomorrow may bring, it is overshadowed by what awaits us in the redeemed heavens and earth.“The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that will be revealed in us” (Romans 8:18).
Good Night Dear Ones
