Hi everyone, I hope all of you are welll. I am at Cheryl and Kevin's watching the dogs and cat and 4 lizzards. I thought there was going to be a storm earlier but thank God it passed over. They lose their electric a lot here and when it started to thunder I ran and got the storm kit thing. It is a flashlight, radio, alarm thing that they keep plugged in for when the electric goes off. I didn't need it so I am happy. But I am not going to put it away yet. There are times when they have been in the dark for hours.
Ryan called about 15 mintues ago to say that they will be home around 9:00 pm. They went to Michigan. They left Thursday morning and I got here Thursday afternoon. Everyone has behaved so far. Before I left for work on Friday Morning I got both dogs together and warned them both not to poop in the cage or in the house, I was very stern. Well, it worked because the house was just as I left it when I got home.
I am feeling better everyday. It has been a much slower recovery then I expected. The last surgery I had was 18 or 19 years ago and I went back sooner to work then the doctor thought I would because I bounced back so quickly. I guess I expected that kind of recovery but I am about 19 years older and about 50 lbs heavier then I was then. The surgery was 4 weeks ago Thursday so I should start running around here like a crazy woman soon. I haven't done a thing and I do mean not a thing. The doctor told me not to lift anything or do anything. He said not to push a vaccum or do any housework or lift anything and I haven't. (Please don't visit my apartment until AFTER I am fully recovered.) I just went to the grocery store for the first time on Thursday and was very careful not to carry too much. There was actually no need to go except for perishables, Sonya really hooked me up with groceries. Well, I am almost at the end of those groceries so I bought just a few on Thursday. And until I am comfortable with lifting that is how I am going to buy them.

I start back to work for the shcool year on August 11th. The students start back to school on August 19th. The teachers and other employees start back on August 18th. August 18th is when the REAL work starts. I have to be 100% by then. My job during the school year is very busy and intense. I have just a few weeks to get myself together. I will do it, I am getting there.
My main problem is that I tire out so easily. I have been going home from work and doing nothing but getting ready to go to bed. I can't wait until I get my energy back.

Well, it is almost 9:00 and the Weidenwebers just got home so I need to go talk to them.
Keep me in your prayers and I will pray for all of you.
