Continued patience.....

Yesterday lady doc took care of me and was just as gentle as she had been previously. Now, her hubby is a “gentle” giant but simplicity is not his forte!! I am up to 350 cc’s and I have a semblance of a cleavage. I am feeling a little “womanly” teeheehee.......

So as my kids’ transition to summer activities I too continue to transition. Lately, I am feeling more discomfort and lady doc told me yesterday that it is to be expected. The more you stretch the muscle the more the body will resist and thus the source of the discomfort. Puberty wasn’t cute at 13 and it’s certainly not cute now…..but this time around it’s a necessary evil. She did try to tell me to skip a week if it gets to be too much but compared to the actual healing from the surgery this is a piece of cake!! In addition, it will put me back for my last surgery and that is not an option. As long as Percocet is available I will continue my weekly appointments….Forge ahead is what I told her!!

Lately I have been reflective of the treasures and trash in my life. Of course treasures include family and friends and I am finding the trash includes anger, disappointment and frustration. It also includes s@*t that just annoys me!! Like the song says….be patient with me, GOD is not through with me yet!! At the urging of my sister friend and coach Gina I am creating collages to remove the trash and keep the treasures in the spotlight…..

I read James 1:2-4 today and it teaches me that patience will show itself in everything you do; with patience you will have everything you need……and patience is SAVING MY LIFE…..
