Not much to report today, though there is some new information that we need to get some clarification on. Because of the questions still associated with it I don't want to give out wrong or misleading information. Just know that today has been one of those days where you have to question sanity of people in positions of power or influence.

I did get in a bike ride in a hilly area, and I need to get more of those type rides in. My legs need to exercise more if I'm going to be making the two-day ride. We also got the chance to take Gracie to the vet, and now she has a doctor where Jason is comfortable taking her. Prior we would had to drive about 30 miles north to get to the vet, so this is much better, and closer.

The girls had a great day and dinner, and even a fun bath. I think about the only thing that might not have been as much fun was when I had to wash their hair. Actually they're pretty good about it, and Linda gave me instruction that I am to braid their hair after their bath. It helps with the tangles the next morning, and since tomorrow the girls have to get up early, we don't want to have unnecessary delays. The reason they have to get up early is that Stacy has a soccer game. Only two more for this year, and Jason wants to watch.

That's about all for the day - take care and stay positive- thank you, for the continued prayers and support.

    Johnson and Johnson No More Tangles...great stuff for little girls with long hair who hate tangles and pain and combing after shampoos. It saved Rosie and my sanity. She has the thickest hair and it was terrible otherwise.
    Hugs to you and hoping for a pic or two of Gracie with Jason :)

    Hope all went well at the game today!
    No matter what happens, the Lord is our shield! Praying!
    Psalms 5:11-12 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

I know I haven't been keeping up with the blog and posting as often as I said I would, but I guess that's what happens when the days really do start to seem more normal, and don't feel like there is much to update about. Then when there is something exciting going on, by the time I can get to the blog I'm pretty well worn out for the day and then I'm slow to get to it afterward. Well, I will continue to provide updates, as I can and we'll just have to see where it takes us. Jason's sled hockey season is over and he had a great time with it. He was not able to go to the final tournament, in Chicago, due to travel challenges. First challenge was simply getting there - there really isn't any way to get there, that doesn't simply totally wear him out, and then he needs the next day to recover. We think we may have figured out a way around this, though it actually means more travel time, rather than recovery time. We have found a van that can provide a ...

Again, I have no reasonable excuse other than to say I got side tracked. On the last post I mentioned that Jason had gotten injured, while playing in the hockey tournament. Well, as it turned out it was a more serious injury than either of us had suspected. The outcome was that he lost some soft tissue and a section of his pelvic bone was exposed (about the size of a quarter) and he is now required to have a wound-vac so that it can heal properly. This means that he has to spend most of his time in bed and can only be up in his chair for no more than 20 minutes at a time, and that followed by hours of rest time. The rest time is for the injury, and not necessarily for Jason, as he isn't tired. As you can imagine, he gets very board with this "life style" and wants to get up and go do something. We've been going in to wound-care frequently, once or twice each week, and they keep telling us, "...we'll take a look at it next week, to see what happens next....

Happy St. Patty's Day!

To day was a good day for Jason, as they removed the breathing tube from his mouth and throat, and his medications and pain meds were lowered. All this lead to him being able to begin talking to us, and have visitors, other than from family. On top of that, Bridgette came with the girls today (she went a short time ago to go pick them up), so he'll be able to see and speak with them as well. Of course tomorrow is Friday, and he is scheduled for another surgery (I'll talk more about that later) so we will need to go visit with him early in the morning, and then later tomorrow we will be able to visit with him again. He was visited by a bunch of different doctors with all of them asking him the same basic questions of, "How are you feeling? Where do you have pain? Can you tell me where you are?" etc., etc. Then came the psychiatrist, who wanted to be sure of his mental abilities and neurological issues. He began with those same questions then asked, "Do you know wh...
