A New Day and a Crashing Update

Thank God for bright (though cold), sun-shiny mornings. 

I am feeling much better this morning.  I didn't sleep all that well, but that just seems to be part of the deal now.

But my hip hurts much less than it did yesterday, thankfully.  It bothers me when I'm walking around, but not too much.

Thank you for all of your prayers .... I feel more at peace today.  

And I'm glad that this "one more thing" is done.

My hate abated to seething, which has now abated to a mix of a little frustration, a little confusion, and a little trepidation.  Much better than hate.

I think my self-induced "time out" with God is coming to an end, just not quite yet.  The timer is still ticking away.  

And yet I feel at peace because I know, that while my time-out timer is still ticking, so many of you are still praying.

And God, Who's shoulders are broad and Who's back is strong, is perfectly fine with my time-out because He knows I'll be stronger for it.

And He loves that all of you are praying for me.

And so do I.

UPDATE:

Please read and learn .....

If you happen to have a biopsy and it requires deep probing and 4 times the "regular" dose of sedation ..... do not leave your house the next day.  Not even for a meeting that was scheduled a month ago.  And then do NOT go to your office to get a bit of work done.

And then NEVER, EVER go to the grocery store on the way home.  

Because you will crash ...... quite quickly and quite hard.

And, if you're like me (and will totally ignore this advice because, dadgummit, you can prove to yourself that you can keep going) you will find that you can barely crawl back into your house and on the couch with a heating pad.  Barely.  And your groceries will still be sitting in your car until who-knows-when.

And you will TOTALLY feel like crap.

Read ..... and learn.
