Almost a week and we're still okay...

Well, mama (or Joyce) has been gone for 4 days now and we've not had any emergency room visits, no one has been restricted to sit in the chair in the corner, and no bad reports from school. But that doesn't mean we  all don't miss her greatly. After the kids have to endure my cooking over the weekend there will be a heightened state of longing!

Joyce is taking advantage of the opportunity to visit with our daughter, Nicole, in Plant City, FL. It's a great time of refreshing and renewing for her and she's already been able to catch up with some long time friends whom we haven't seen in years.

No major occurrences here...our truck is in the garage for a problem with the brakes, the drill rig is at a diesel repair shop to get the rpm's up to speed, I have an appointment for the van to have its' 20,000 kilometer check-up on Tues...but no big roadblocks, thus far. Thank you, Jesus.

Fabi's been battling a cold all week, but we think she's about over now, and the rest of the kids are all in good health. Joyce sent me a monetary gift to buy a stationary bike (recommended by our physician) and it is now assembled and on the porch. I keep looking at it with a coke and bag of chips in my hand trying to determine the best time to climb on it!  Maybe tomorrow...

Please pray for Joyce to have a great time and for us to stay out of trouble until she returns.
