Praise the LORD!!! James found a place that sells orthopedic braces and such. He bought a "Tennis Belt" for me to wear (at the recommendation of a new acquaintance whose husband is an orthopedic surgeon!). We were studying up on Bursitis and Tendonitis to find relief from the pain I have been experiencing. James even went so far as to restrict my "computer time." :D Turns out, I am suffering from a mild case of Tendonitis and so thankful for that little belt! I can wear it for just a while and it takes the edge off the pain and allows me to go about my day normally for days afterwards! Such a blessing!! Did I mention what a wonderful MAN I married??
In other news, my Grandma is doing better. We thought we were going to lose her last week. She was not responding to anything and then all of a sudden she became alert and ate TWO bowls of chicken noodle soup and started bossing my Mom around! We are so thankful for this added time.
A facebook friend shared two wonderful blogs w/ me and they are so good! Lots of great reading material to encourage and uplift as well as at times admonish us in our daily walk with our Savior. They are proverbs14verese1 and Passionate Homemaking.
I really miss this time of year in the Northeast. The wonderful Fall colors and smells bring back such good memories for me. We are trying our hand at growing pumpkins this year, so maybe we will get some "Brazilian Fall" pics and have the mouthwatering smells that go along with baking pumpkins!
Please continue to pray for us. We are seeking God's guidance as to furlough and the sale of our house. There are pros and cons to everything and we keep going back and forth. I am sure we are not the only ones....... :D
Have a wonderful night Friends!
