Well, am going to do it! May 30th - surgery date to fix back! Actually it is in much better shape than in previous years - but areas where nerves are impinged are severe. It is time. Should be home by 31st....sister is coming to take me over - - and bring me back. Chuck and dogs will wait for me. Concerned over all my "kingdom" and all that needs me - guess it will manage for two-three weeks while I recuperate. Looking back - to time of pulmonary embolism - I asked God for enough years to see last grandchild raised - and look what has happened: A new grandchild. A girl. Fallyn Arianna. I am madly in love with this new little person. Will post a pic later, my camera has disappeared and I had photos in phone, which crashed, so the new phone is now barren and I hope i have somewhere saved the photos of the little darling. She's about two weeks old.
Soooo - It's been a weird and tough in it own way year - not only challenges, but in that I wanted to keep doing things the same way as a marvelous previous few years - and no, nope, not allowed - so put on the new - but how? Trial and error - listening to what is inside - - - ready, ready to embrace the new, and learn its mysterious paths until they are well worn and then time to come up another notch again.
