Still Here!

Sorry everyone. I came back on here and promptly went away again. My M-I-L went home to be with the Lord on May 19th and we had to drop everything and go to Michigan for that. Long drive with 4 children... darn minivan's aren't big enough for that kind of a trip. lol  We got back this weekend. Today is my first day back to work. UGH, I barely remembered how to turn on my computer and of course my passwords expired while I was gone.  But all in all, things went well the past few weeks.  I really feel convicted that I need to be an even better wife to my poor husband as I am the ONLY family he now has (except for a brother who is too self absorbed to even take the time to go to dinner together after his mothers funeral). This has really given me an opportunity to reflect on how to take care of my husband and be what he needs me to be.  I ate well, maybe "well" isnt the right word, but I did pretty good considering that I ate out four meals per day for the past two weeks, (yes, I pretty much eat four small meals per day now).  So what's up with you all????? I want to hear something GOOD!!!!

Something good?  I was sleeved last Wednesday, May 28 and I'm thrilled!  And I only have 8 more days on liquids!!!!  Halfway home, almost! Glad you have you back! Kim

Congrats!!!!!  Liquids get old quick, but it is soooo worth it. This is going to be a great summer for you. Mark those changes as they happen so you can look back on them during your "why'd I do this moments". lol 

I am so sorry to hear about your mil. I am glad you had a safe trip. I agree.. no vech is big enough for that long of a trip with 4 kids. I am sure your more than a great wife for you husband but its so sweet of you to take the extra care to make him feel better. After meeting you the one time I can not imagine you being less than the best wife you can be, your so sweet and possitive and you have God on your side.

I missed you at the Tusla Eat Meet and Greet! I was looking forward to seeing you again.

My good news is that My daughter graduated votech and hs last month and is moving out  really soon.. ok thats not great news.. but it will be nice not to hear the kids bickering all the time.

Well now that is great news.  My son will graduate from hs this Sunday. GREAT NEWS!!!!!  But he's in Michigan and there's no way I can get back there for his graduation - BAD NEWS!!!  I have to let it go, but it's killing me to know I can't be there for HIS day!  We're practically BEGGING him to move down here with us now. There are no jobs in Michigan and he doesn't want to go to college this fall. I tried to tell him that there are jobs everywhere down here. I'm still praying that he'll come.  You're just too nice to me Sherrie. I so wanted to see you guys again. I'm working afternoons now though so I'm not available for dinner get togethers unless its Saturday.  HUGS

it doesnt have to be a meeting to get together some of us could meet up someitme and hang out. oh there is a kewl website i found.. thought you might like it. www.wishuponahero.com

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I will be keeping your family in my prayers. Bless you for wanting to be an excellent wife to your husband. I'm glad your family made it back home safely.

So, for some good news... several have had successful surgeries and have joined us on the bench, walking groups have started all over the place, exercise seems to be catching on, and some of us have had stalls finally break (me included).That sounds pretty good, right?
