I just read Terrys post and i know everyone is praying so hard for her and Lyn so i thought we could call today miracle Monday for them.
Terry stay strong  and take care of yourself cause  Lyn he is gonna need you when he goes home and we love you and want you both to be well.
Sherry ,Brenda ,Gail and Christie hope you all are feeling better.
Leah sweetie i hope your dad and daughter get well soon.
Kimmy hope your fever stays down and you get your strength back soon.
Well everyone take care and stay safe im off to bed nothing to drink til after cat scan and test tomorrow so if im sleeping im not wanting to drink.
Huggs and kisses to you

Terry and Lyn are in my prayers too.

Today is another Monday for my family. Mike has to work at North Vigo HS. It was kind of neat. They asked for him specifically for the job. He must be doing a good job.

The kids have school. I believe today is report cards day for them. Either today or tomorrow. Tomorrow Maggie's going to be present a grades award with some other students at an assembly. Of course I arranged work so that I could be there!

I work at VR today. We're having a staff meeting. Ugh. I dislike meetings. It's hard for me to sit in one place for so long. And we usually don't get our lunches on time either, . But, I guess they're important, so we can all touch base. Just not my favorite work activity.

 

 

Good morning everyone! Lisa...I think it was a terrific, positive thing to call today's post 'Miracle Monday'!

I have sent out an email to those on the Directory regarding Terry & Lyn. I'll be heading there to see them every weekend when I'm off (Friday-Sunday). I will bring with me any cards, etc that anyone would like to send for them. Please address it to:
Sherri Johnson

Or..you can check the directory and send it to Melissa H. instead & she can bring it/them when she goes to work. If you don't have her address or aren't on the directory, contact me/Melissa so we can send it to you. Sorry, but only people who are on the Directory gets a copy of the directory (Jenny...I'll send it to you when I get home tonight since I don't have a copy of it here at work).

Well..did my last shot last night. I really don’t see any difference at all. So…we’re on a wait & see….again.

I had met with a woman a few weeks ago to get some new file cabinets, etc for here in the lab. We’re suppose to get them today. I’ll be happy to see them! I have about 6-8 boxes of books that I couldn’t unpack from our move over here because they are suppose to be ‘secure’ and we didn’t have any locked cabinets space for them. Yes..that has become part of my job since I’m on desk duty. Instead of being able to do my labwork, I’ve become more of an admin/IT person.

 
Bill told me yesterday that when they started taking me off the coma-inducing meds that it took ~24  hours for me to start opening my eyes and another 24 hours or so before I could speak and actually understand what I was saying or what was being said to me. So…Lyn being able to open his eyes already, Bill thought was a very good sign. I plan to give Terry a call in a few hours. I don’t want to wake her up if she is resting.

 
Well..guess I better get busy. You all have a terrific day today!

God bless...
Sherri

I agree, we will claim today as miracle day for Lyn.   I pray that each day show marked improvement for him and a day closer to going home.

With working Saturday the weekend sure flew by.  This week will be a busy one, have something going every night,  and with working late too, the time will surely go by just as fast.  I'm going to work this Saturday too, but plan on taking off next Friday and Saturday the 13th and 14th.  That will make a nice break because we have a holiday the 16th. 

Had a good day yesterday.  Went to church and after the family had lunch with the Pastor's family, then the daddies to all the little girls sledding.  Or as we women said "all the kids went sledding"  Joe (my son) and the Pastor are just big kids at heart.  They were so pumped when they got back.  I am glad they had such a good time.  Times like this with their daddies are things the girls will remember when they are grown I'm sure.

I am anxious to hear how Lyn is doing today.  Melissa thank you so much for being such support for Terry and keeping us informed.  Sherri, I'm sure you were a comfort to Terry.

May everyone have a great day.

I will definately see them when I'm there at work on the weekend, but will most likely go up during the week also. So feel free to send things on to me if you want. I'd be happy to deliver.

good morning all. 

I am trying to type some replies this morning with a minpin under my left arm and a 10 week old kitten on my right arm.  LOL  I suddenly remember what it was like to have extra baggage to weigh me down.  Maybe I can make a sling carrier to put them in when I walk to treadmill.  LOL

I start my Support Group Training today.  I am excited about that.  I am hoping by the end of the week I will have found a place to hold the meetings and all will be on track for getting started in Marion.

I am feeling very positive about Lyn's progress.  I truly believe that God is providing a miracle and Lisa's Title for today's thread just makes me smile.  I am already claiming Lyn as a miracle!  Terry is incredibly strong and I can see she is holding together much better than I ever could.  Let's all keep the prayers going their way.

I guess I am in the market for a new microwave since mine decided to "retire" yesterday. 
So after my training today we were gonna head south to Indy to see Terry and Lyn and shop for a microwave. 

That's about all I am up to today... oh and of course, waiting on the phone call from the Job interview.... I am starting to get nervous about it now.  Tomorrow will be a week, and he said it would probably be around the second week of February.  I am trying to be patient though.

Huge hugs,
Tracy

Good Morning to all.  Not much going on here, as always any more.  Just sat down to figure out what I could work this month.  I REALLY REALLY need to work.  Since the dh totalled our truck right before 2 days before christmas, we are down to one vehicle. With his work schedule and being able to get the kids to school and stuff there hasn't been much room for me to go in.  So let's hope I still have a job. My checking account is really screaming at me to work lol. Of course I have made him mad about my schedule aready, cuz the only one day he could go see his daughter in TerreHaute is when I scheduled myself to work.  He isn't happy cuz i'm not working much but then when I squeeze myself in some days then he is never happy about that either. **Sigh** Its a long story but I nor my kids have ever met her. She is ok with meeting us but its the mother that is not ok with it, not sure if she thinks I'm gonna try to take her place or what.  I'm not found of his ex but I can be nice to her if I need to be ;) I guess I cant say much I rememeber when my ex re married and I wasn't fond of my kids being with his new wife but I adjusted and did what was best for them.  I guess one day she will come around.

I actually managed to choke down some breakfast (well yogurt) I decided that I need to try and start getting my breakfast in.  I'm not very found of eating in the morning, but i really need to start doing this.  I feel as though I have derailed from the tracks quite a bit lately.   Even have supper in the Crock Pot already.  New recipe for garlic and rosemary chicken so I hope its good!!!

Glad to see that things are sounding positive for teri and lyn. I pray that things continue to go in that path.

Hope everybody has a great day, I believe I have rambled long enough.

In spite of everything that's going on here, I'm very relieved to have my power back on.  It was restored at 10:00 yesterday and was very welcome.  I got the refrigerator and freezers cleaned out last night.  All of my veggies I had put up from the garden were thawing so I made about 10 gallons of vegetable soup.  Baked up all of my chicken breasts.  Fried up a bunch of pork chops for Troy to take in his lunch (can't do fried foods anymore and pork chops don't pass well anyway).  I had about 15 lbs of ground sirloin too so I cooked it up and threw it in the soup with some onions and cabbage.  Wish everyone was closer so I could share.  Lord knows I have enough to feed an army!

I'm really saddened to hear about Terry and Lyn.  I've been praying this morning for them.  I wish I lived closer so I could help out but I'm sending something through Sherri.  At least I can help a little and cover them in prayers.

These are really strange times huh?  My pastor mentioned all of the wierd occurances of the past year:  Earthquake, hurricane, flooding, ice storm.  It's all very strange.  Makes me wonder how close we are to the end of times.  Sometimes I just want to throw my hands up in the air and scream, "Come Lord Jesus!" 

I'll try to keep updated on all of the situations here.  Know I love you!
Smooches,
Jacqui

I think it is a wonderful idea in calling this Miracle Monday.  I am still keeping Terry and Lyn in my prayers, that everything will be OK with Lyn and that Terry keeps her strength up. 

Hope everyone starts feeling better, I know a awful bug is going around.  I am lucky so far that I have not gotten it. 

Busy here today, working and then I have a Tea to go to tonight, a friend of mine oldest son is having his art projection judged tight for the county, and all project no matter if they place here or not will go to state, and he requested to have his adopted aunt their.  How can I turn down such a wonderful invitation.

I also found out today that they are starting a MBA program here in Marion on site starting the end of this month, I am trying to push all my paperwork through to get approved.  I am wanting to do my MBA on site and these are few and far between here in Marion.  I do not want to have to commit to traveling to Ft Wayne or Indy every week and then for team projects also.  That is just to much for me right now. 

Tracy, I know that Brad is waiting on the background checks to come back.  I know he asked Susan about them on Friday when I was in the office, because they had gotten back back so soon.  She said that mine was the only one they had gotten back at that time, I believe it is just a matter of time.  I am hoping that we will be working in the same area.  I am still doing the same job, I was just will have added responsibilities. 

Tracy,  I also have a call into the YMCA about the meeting room.  We may be able to get the meeting room there for our support group. I will let you know as soon as I hear something.

Guess I better get off here, my lunch break is almost over, and I need to make another trip down the hallway to the bathroom, all these liquids are running right through me. 

Have a wonderful Miracle Monday

God Bless to all.

Good Day Everyone!!!

Terry and Lyn are deep in my prayers and thoughts. As well as a few others on here. 

I had hoped and prayed that after all my health problems last year that the good LORD would bless me with compassion this year. Apparently, I'm still in need of a lesson to be learned in his actions because I'm still having health issues. While we have finally found a medication for my bladder and I don't have to wear a depends anymore, I've now developed a severe (as in cramping) bladder infection. I'm also passing noticeable size blood clots from my rectum again. All because of my radiation treatments a year ago. It's very frustrating and it adds to my already deep depression. Please don't think I'm whinning.... just venting. I know that this to shall pass, so I do what I'm suppose to do, try to learn my "life" lesson, and work at getting back to being me. 

I finally got a fill last week, though albeit small one, but I'm back to loosing weight again. The restriction is helping to remind me easly to stay on track a little bit better. My RSD is working it's self out of the flare up I've had for over a month. Enough swelling is gone so I can put socks on and walk without limping. The hyperskin sensetivity is still a big issue though, though usually is during the winter months from the constant wearing of long pants (pants rub on my shins irratating them). I'm so looking forward to Spring. I don't care what that dang ground hog said, I vote for NO MORE SNOW, hahaha!

I hope every has a blessed day. Many of you are in my thoughts and prayers. Maybe I can come to Indy one night soon and a bunch of us can meet up for dinner? Well have to see. 

Blessings
Jodi
