We had a very good day today, mostly because just about everything that we did today, went smoothly, and without any problems. The girls got up and off to school; we were able to get up to Jason's new house build site; we had a great family dinner, with Jason at the table this time; and, we seem to be working towards an organized effort to get our stuff in order, so that we can move when we need to. On top of that, Kojak seems to be getting more used to the family, and is showing some signs that he is learning his name. There is one other things, as I said earlier, "... just about everything..." There was one item that hasn't gone too smoothly, and it is rather puzzling.

I attempted to load some pictures from my camera on to the computer and the computer just doesn't seem to want them. I have hooked it up, same as I have done many times before, and there is more than adequate disk space, and both devices indicate there is communication going on. Just that when I attempt to down load the pictures the system just sits. Heck, I'd be happy if I'd at least get an error or something, but it doesn't do anything. I guess this is going to be another one of those things I'm going to have to trouble shoot.

Jason and I will be heading out to Balboa Naval Hospital tomorrow morning, after the girls get off to school. I don't suspect the visit will take too long, as I think it is a regular Wound Care Visit. Then we have to take the dogs to the vet, and get them to their regularly scheduled office visit. Joselyn's son, Robert, will be coming over to help me move some heavy items, and I don't believe there is much else to get done. Thank you, for all the continued support and prayers. Take care and stay positive.

    Always praying!
    Psalms 139:1-3 O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

    Know that I'm praying in Seattle.
    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...
