It is a beautiful, warm October day here in northern Iowa. Our large maple tree down on the end of the cul-de-sac has not even change color yet. So strange.
Joel spent another couple weeks working on the garage windows. Now he's out mowing the grass. He has ridden his bike only a couple of times as between outdoor work, indoor work and taking care of me, he's kind of busy.
I have been staying close to home.Having gone only one time in ten days to the park to sit and look at the beauty around me. I don't like where I find myself.But rest seems to be the name of the game until we find out exactly what's going on. I apologize for not writing more on facebook or my blog.But I just haven't had it in me. I'm dealing with a lot of fatigue in an annoying tickle type cough that came about a month ago. Yesterday I spent quite a bit of time on the phone with mayo clinic.Trying to get the necessary MRI set up for next Monday. With God's help, it is done.And I will have an MRI Monday morning, a blood draw, and then see the Sarcoma specialist.. This journey has been a roller coaster ride in body, soul and spirit.And I hope to write about it soon. There have been times that God has been silent.There have been times he has shut doors and there have been times where he has told me to be still because He's got this.
Today, I am grateful for Joel and all that he does to support me, to care for me, to maintain our home and to pray for me. Grateful God intervened and I have a test on Monday.That will help the doctors. Grateful for a warm Fall day. Gradeful, for encouraging phone calls, emails and texts with pictures thrown in that brightened our days. Grateful for all this and so much more.
Enjoy your weekend.
