Milestones

Well, we have reached a few milestones around here and I thought I would catch everyone up. First.....The GuitarMan got the pins out today! Yes! Still in the custom brace, still healing, but no pins to contend with now. Therapy still for a while. However the therapist mentioned if his range of motion continues to improve, he may be able to cut it back to once a week.

He and Z had a concert Sunday night at a church over in the next county. It was pretty freaky to see him play with the pins. But the thing that took the cake was on the last song when he went all out and put the electric guitar behind his head and played it! There were some pictures made at the concert. His doctor is hoping there might be a good shot of him playing that shows his pins. He wants to use it when he does seminars and presentations!

Second.....In other news, I am officially hip now. Well, probably not since I just used the term hip but anyway...up to date....cool....whatever. I'm on Facebook now. The only thing on there is my name, birthday and that I'm married. I cracked up at that. I've been married 25 years and I look on there and it says so-and-s0 (otherwise known as me) is now married. I looked at filling in the rest. Do you know how hard it is to say exactly what your interests, favorite music, books, etc are when you are as busy as I am LOL? Favorite music? Um, anything from son's band! Interests? Um......Oh, my I really am feeling like a boring person. :o)

Everyone tells me I am going to be totally addicted to this Facebook thing though. Now I did think it was neat that I could look up everyone from high school to see if they had Facebook. There were some I recognized. I could Friend them I guess. But then that would mean they would be in touch with me too. Can I be truthful here? I would really rather see THEIR pictures of how THEY look after all these years of life rather than THEM looking at ME! I'm used to the blogging world where you can lurk anonymously! How weird to go all these years and suddenly be able to see all about their life now.

I suppose I'll get son to help me with it when he comes home again. Maybe he can make it look good enough to where I won't care LOL!

The Season of Pregnancy (updated)

I know. I have been neglecting this blog. Horribly. That's not the only thing that has been thrown by the wayside lately! It is only for a season though. Pregnancy means you must be patient with yourself and accept that sometimes you must let things slide. That also means that you have to plan in order to conserve your energy. I know if I am going somewhere later today then I don't need to rush around and try to get a lot done in the morning. Priorities must be in order. Although the morning sickness is better it isn't totally gone at this point. Whoever named it that anyway? The main thing I have been dealing with is fatigue. My blog shows it. My laundry shows it. My house shows it. Ack, everywhere shows it! I simply do not have the energy to do the bending up and down required to truly clean up, do laundry, and the vacuuming/sweeping etc. It's quite depressing actually! So I do a little here, do a little there. I manage the necessities such as homeschooling, cooking,

Need Prayers

Yesterday I went to my regular doctor's appt. They could not find the baby's heartbeat. Ultrasound showed that for reasons that are simply unknown right now, the baby has died. If I do not deliver on my own by Monday, then I will be induced. We know that God has a purpose in every life, no matter how short. Right now, there are a jumble of feelings. I'm sure the coming days will be no different. We went to my son and told him in person. He came on home as he wants to be here for all of us, particularly FlowerChild, as she leans on him so much. We haven't told the girls yet as we just aren't sure how to handle that at this point. Today in the South the snow is falling and they feel like it is Christmas. I would rather let them have that and watch their delight as they play. It's not important when they find out so much as it is that I find the right way to tell them. I will probably come at it from the direction of a premature birth or that the baby is sick. Th

Latest on GuitarMan

I haven't made a practice of sharing photos with a full facial view on here. However the GuitarMan isn't too worried about that LOL! With many of you praying for him I thought you might like to have an idea of who he is. He is still in a lot of pain. His fingers are all black and blue and his entire hand is swollen. His hand is cut straight across his fingers and across the bottom of his hand. Once again, very obvious what could have happened. He's blown away by everyone caring and checking in him and the prayers on his behalf. He says to thank you all!
