Nice day today, with a formation in the morning and a very relaxed evening. Miss the girls, though they will be back, so we'll just have to deal with that. After formation, Jason and I came back to the house and picked up Linda so we could head over to the Original Pancake House. It isn't too far away and we all like the food there. Once that was done we headed back to the house so that Jason could get his shower in and I could change the dressings, and then Linda and I were to head off to Wal-Mart (actually about the first time I've been to a Wal-Mart this year). Another thing that I didn't mention was that prior to heading out to do some shopping, we took down a bunch, almost all, of the Christmas decorations that were left.

Tonight we ate Linda's stew, and it was great! Jason had a big bowl and Linda and I used two slightly smaller bowls. Of course we also had seconds, so we made up the difference... ;-) One thing that I like to do is to spice it up a bit, and added some hot sauce to the mix, and I think it was a great flavor enhancer. No one else seems to think the same way as I do, but heck, that's nothing new. The rest of the evening was spent just sitting back and relaxing. Tomorrow we will be getting up and I'll be fixing some French Toast. After breakfast we plan on going out and taking a look at some property. Linda has only seen pictures and she would like to see just what it is that Jason is looking at, and possibly wanting to settle down with. Thank you, for all the continued support and prayers. Take care and stay positive.

    Hope the property hunt went well today.
    Continuing to lift up prayer!
    Psalms 139:4-6 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O LORD, thou knowest it altogether. Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

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...
