Good day today, all the way around. It started out with Jason and I getting up early, so he could get to his formation and before we left Stacy and Jackie showed up and went with us. After we got done with Jason's appointments we headed back to the house, with Stacy (Jackie went to her day care and Stacy's "new" one has closed this week), and kind of just laid back for a bit. Jason had his shower and Stacy played with some of her toys. Then at about 12:30 the three of us (Jason, Stacy and me) were off to the airport to pick up Linda. She came in at about 12:30, so the timing would have been close to right on, if it hadn't been for all the traffic at the airport.

With Linda in the car we went over to have lunch, at the house and Stacy was really happy about Grandma making her sandwich. A short while after lunch we went to go pick up Jackie (Jason stayed back this time) and boy was she surprised to see Grandma there. We did a little bit of shopping, and then headed back to the house. Grandma and the girls spent a little time getting the first of the Christmas decorations up and they all had a great time. Even Joselyn (home health aid) got into the act and helped with the placement of some of the decorations on the little tree the girls have.  It was just nice all around.

Tonight, after dinner, Linda bathed the girls and then they went to bed, and then Linda and I had some alone time. The Monday Night Football game was done with the first 3 quarters, and the Niners looked to be in good shape, so I was confident when I told her I would turn the game off. We sat and watched a Robert Redford movie and simply enjoyed each other's company. It was a very nice evening. Tomorrow is going to be another very nice day, only this time it will begin with breakfast and then off to get family pictures. Thank you, for all the continued support and all the prayers being sent our way. Take care and stay positive.

    So glad you're all together!
    Praying for you right now!
    Romans 8:15-18 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

10 Alive Day (10 Years after the blast)

 Wow! It has been 10 years today, that Jason was injured and despite all the expectations from the medical folks, he's still alive and as positive and active as ever. Most of you are aware that he is into sled-hockey and that we haven't been able to get out and play for over a year now. There is a positive side to all this, though, as the timing of the shut downs and the length of the pandemic. It began just as Jason's team (the Ducks) was getting ready to go to the championship tournament, in Philadelphia, when everything was shut down. This meant that because they were defending champions they simply maintained the title. Then the following season was cancelled so the third year they have kept the title as well... trouble is that no- body wants to keep it that way. They would rather be out there on the ice and having some real games and doing what they do best... PLAY HOCKEY! We do understand now, that the games are very likely to begin again soon, so everybody is doing t

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

 First - Happy Easter to you all!! We attended the 11:00am services and it was packed. This was a much happier and more "normal" Easter than last year, and I'm glad. I want to apologize that I didn't get any pictures, but I do know that Linda has taken a few these past several days, so it is just a matter of me getting time with her 'droid and then I can pull a few over here. It has been an amazing last several days... yet it all began a little over three (3) years ago. You see, Amber H. (I forgot to ask her if I could put her name in this blog) attempted to reach out to me, to ask if I was Jason's dad, and if he had lost his military dog tags. Well, as it turned out I didn't see this outreach until just a couple of weeks ago. When I did see it my first reaction was - "Is this some kind'a scam?" I decided to cautiously respond back to Amber, now 3-years later, just to see what kind of response I would get. As it turned out she got back to me
