I am sure the title seems a little odd but I have been thinking about prayers in action. One of the really easy ones is simply to do a project. You pick something, put in a few hours, and "check it off." My daughter has taken to saying, "check it off." Apparently, I say it a little too much. My husband is worried that her hair might turn red too.
Last week, my sister came to visit for a day and we had a little bit of time left after our regular Target visit and taking our girls to the "beauty shop." We sat in what we call the baby room and sorted through the baby clothes. The bins are starting to take over. There is a difference between being sentimental and being overrun by baby clothes. We sorted and piled some for my niece and some for an upcoming sale. In the end, it looked like we tried. I might not have felt physically better but my mind felt better and the space looked better too.
The rest of this week is a little unknown. I still have a few tests at the U tomorrow but I am trying to get one moved around so I won't be there all the day. The other nasty test got postponed until Friday. My blood is too thin right now so the cardiologist won't touch me. It is a standard test but I am not really too excited about the whole matter. I know they do them all the time but I don't do them all the time and I would like it to be over.
We might get brave today and venture out to the grocery store. Maybe just the gas station. I think it is a good day for crafts.
Blessings,
Cindy
Yay, I figured out how to comment! I had to dig up my old bloggy google account which I've not used in ages. Michelle put me in touch with your blog Cindy, and I'm so glad you're writing. I love "gratitude journaling" and you embrace that concept in a such a lovely way over here. Say, by any chance are you looking forward to a TEE with the cardio once your INR is in check? I've had many cardiac proceedures, and I have a feeling this may be the sucktastic one you're talking about. If it is...I want to offer you this...I've had several of these tests, and while the notion of a scope descending down your esophagus to get a look at your heart sounds barbaric- it's really not so bad. I say this because they knock you out so well that I have absolutely no memory of any of the TEE exams I've had. The only complaint I can recall is a slightly sore throat after, which is easily treated. If this isn't what you're having done..pardon the details. Keep writing girl!
