Productive Saturday


Today was pleasantly busy.  Woke up around 8:00 and loved on some kitty (a few of them are all about morning attention after our sleeping all night.  The nerve of us!) for awhile.  Once everyone was showered and dressed, we went to breakfast and then to Lowes for some torches and a backdoor mat for our deck. 

Aaron and I then had a rehearsal at the church for our Good Friday service.  We're doing dramatic readings and a play at the end which is very moving and intense.  When we got home, The Brit and JJ had gone out to play a round of golf, so I did some work on the front porch and finished up dinner.  After dinner, I cleaned out the shed and worked in the yard while The Brit and Aaron installed an electrical outlet for the deck.  Once darkness fell, we fired up the pit and relaxed on the deck.  It's so wonderful when the weather cooperates! 

The Brit's mum is doing fairly well.  They believe they got all of the mass, though it seems where was a small spot on her liver.  Once she is out of ICU and has regained some strength, she will see the cancer specialist and they will determine what to do next.  Technically, they are still waiting for the pathology results, but it sounds to me like cancer is the strong suspicion.  My FIL said she was much better today thankfully, so we'll keep praying and hope she continues to improve and that they are able to cure her.

Thanks for the prayers.  Keep 'em coming.  For prayer purposes, her name is Daphne.

  1. I saw the FB post. I'm so sorry to hear of Chris' mom. What happened?? She seemed to be doing so well last night!

  2. I'm so sorry to be reading this post in backwards order - it's so strange to know that you had hope for her just a few hours before she passed. I'm sure that happens often, but it's certainly painful.
