We are in the city today for my lung CT scan, scheduled for
an hour from now. I don’t relish “starting afresh” with a new doctor, but it is
unavoidable, as he will need to go over the radiologist’s findings. We are not
expecting any startling news.
Hard to believe July is over. We have had a glorious summer
of cool nights and warm days, but rarely over 75. We appreciate the moderation!
My progress with my muscles continues to be so so slow.
Some days I don’t think it is worth continuing to try to improve. Dick
reassures me that even if it takes a year to return to normal, it is worth it.
Tell that to my sore muscles from lifting leg weights.
On a positive note, my hair has finally begun to grow in.
Sam was the one who noticed it on July 1. It is unfortunately coming in mainly
white and very thin and wispy. My sister-in-law had the good fortune to have
her hair come back in black and curly. I was not that lucky. I had read that
many women have the coming-back-in-white issue. I don’t really like myself in
white yet. When I am able and have enough hair, I WILL color it!!
I am meeting with my two dear friends Lee and Penny every
Wednesday for concentrated prayer and intercession and it has fed my soul. I so
love these women.
The deer population is way down and we have not had one
deer walk thru our yard this summer. It used to be a near daily occurrence
which we have loved. A mass of hummingbirds has taken up residence on Dick’s
two hummingbird feeders and their frenzied activity fighting for a straw is comical.
I hope all of you are having a wonderful summer.
