A little different format today -
Jason spent most of the day in bed, again, and that is a good thing, as his wounds are really making some positive healing. It seems the more he is down the better the wounds close up. My guess is that there is going to be only one area left in about a week, though that one area has been particularly stubborn. This coming week is going to be different, and fun, as we should be able to start making some headway with the selection and possible purchase of his OWN vehicle. Still a couple of things to work on, but it all looks good.
The PackRat storage container, that is currently sitting in the driveway is now empty. I spent a few hours working on it, and even had the help of the girls for a little while. I let them "move" a couple of the very light pieces, and so much of it was different, that it kept them quite entertained. After lunch and they went down for their naps, I was able to finish unloading everything else, mostly because one of the Marines came by and he helped me move some of the heavier pieces. Without his help it would have taken me two to three hours more, so I was very happy to see him. I also set up the donations that we are giving to Father Joe's Village. When all that stuff is gone we will, again, be able to move around easily.
Tonight we had a nice ham dinner, prepared by Serving Spoons, a group of young women who want to help out with preparing meals for the Wounded Warrior families. The food was quite good and the girls enjoyed having something different. The amount of food they brought would have feed a family of 8, so needless to say, we have some left overs. That's okay, I'm already planning on how to have the rest of it, over the next two days. Thank you, for all the continued support and prayers. Take care and stay positive.

So glad the wounds are finally healing better!
ReplyDeleteNice that you had help. That's always such a hard thing to do!
There are such comforting passages in Isaiah! Praying!
Isaiah 25:8-9 He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.

ReplyDeleteIsaiah 12:2-5 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation. And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted. Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth.
