Busy, Busy, Busy..........


Busy, Busy, Busy.....If I just stay busy, I'll be able to keep my mind off of everything, right?  Right?  I'm going to get everything caught up and ahead at work, I even have the "junk food" drawer full of snacks so my co-workers won't get hungry while I'm gone.  I'll go at lunchtime and see if I can find a new book so I'll have plenty to read while I'm bored, I mean recuperating at home.  Tonight when I get home I'll make sure the laundry is all caught up and in good shape and make sure I have plenty of food and cokes in the refrigerator (I will be drinking cokes non-stop up until the clock strikes midnight tonight!) I'm trying to keep things as normal as possible because normal is what I thrive on.  Routine.  I don't like things messing up my routine.  But I know life isn't always about staying in your comfort zone and sometimes we are asked to step out of that place of comfort and have faith and trust.

"God I love You.  I don't love this situation.  But I love You.  Therefore, I have everything I need to keep putting one foot in front of the other and will walk through until I get to the other side of this.  I trust in You.  In Jesus' Name, Amen. - Lysa TerKeurst.

I am scheduled to be at the Women's Center tomorrow at 8:15AM for pre-op injections with surgery scheduled at 11:00AM.  I will try and blog each step of the way.  I thank you all again for your love, support, and prayers!

"I am your strength and your ever present help."  Psalm 36:1

  1. Although you don't know me, I've been following your blog since I read about what you are going through on your husband's Facebook page. And ever since then, you have been in my daily prayers. I have a friend that I work with who is going through this same thing and had her procedure last Friday. She opted for the 6 weeks of daily (except weekends) radiation and I guess will start that soon. But I believe she's doing very well and I truly believe you will too. Take care and keep us posted!!

  3. Ali, I will keep in special prayer tomorrow. Your faith is strong. God will bring you through this. He's got a plan. Just as he used Jim as such an inspiration to so many people, he will use you. Your faith is such a blessing. I pray for strength and courage, and as little fear and pain as possible. And I pray for wisdom & guidance for your doctors and caretakers. Love & Prayers.
