Yesterday I had the last drain taken out of my chest. It hurt some, but I’m glad it is out. I still slept last night in the recliner, but might try the bed tonight. I did take pain pills last night, but not today. I won’t drive while on pain pills. I also began the reconstruction yesterday. It is more painful than I expected. I will go back weekly for that procedure. It should take a few weeks I think.
I drove Erik to the airport this morning. Then stopped for a Big Mac and went on to work. There were no parking places there so I came home. Can you believe there aren’t enough parking places at my work place for employees!? I don’t usually arrive at lunch hour and there are several eateries in our shopping center. Folks must come from miles around to eat at Primo Hoagies, Pizza Hut, Nudy’s, TJ’s Restaurant and Drinkery or just drop off their mail at the Post Office.
I will go back in a little while and begin to catch up on the work of the kingdom.
I have a couple of doctors’ appointments next week and my sister comes for a short visit the next week. I hope the weather will be nice.
And my prayers are with Arnie and Mary Jane Trope. Love you both.
Psalm 46:1
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
