Mom woke up today feeling great- she hasn't taken a thing for pain all day, not even Tylenol! We canned a few tomatoes this morning (they are overtaking the garden!) and kind of just bummed around the house. We were going to make our first post-surgery public appearance to Target, but mom wanted to take a 'little' nap first- over an hour later I decided to go for a run and I guess mom slept for over 2 hours! She still hasn't mastered 'laying low' and I think it has caught up with her a bit!
The only bad thing today was that Andi and Tay had to leave :( Tay starts his junior year at UW-Madison on Wednesday and Andrea moves into a new apartment in the Wicker Park area of Chicago tomorrow. We were all very blessed and glad to have them here these last few days, I know I'm really going to miss having them to lean on. Andrea will be back soon for a couple weddings and hopefully we'll be able to make it to Madison for a Badger football game or two this fall.
Thanks again for the flowers that just keep coming (McClures, Jensens, Chuck & boys, Heather & Frank)- our house looks and smells like a flower shop, it's so uplifting! All the cards too have brought many smiles to our faces day after day.
That's about it for now- one quick prayer request though...my friend Steph was diagnosed with breast cancer a week or so before mom and she has to have a second surgery tomorrow and an infusion port placed for chemo- please keep her in your thoughts and prayers, she really needs strength and peace during this difficult time. Thanks again everyone, we love you! Until next time...
