Yesterday, Sunday, Kelan's mother, Andi, stayed in B.L.A.S.T. to help out. We talked about Christmas and the meaning of it. I had some yellow card stock at home that I made a circle and blue-green card stock to use for the ribbons. We were sitting at the table making a name tag with their name in the center of the circle, B.L.A.S.T. on one ribbon and SAN ANGELO FIRST ASSEMBLY OF GOD on the other ribbon. Andi wrote everything on each of the ribbons and while she was doing that we were talking about Christmas and what it was about. There was some extra ribbon so we made a chain. We would ask them a question and if they got the answer right (What is Christmas about - Jesus birthday) we would add to the chain. While Andi was finishing writing everything on the name tags Kelan, Josh and I were playing our game with the ball, (we bounce it to each other and tell them "Jesus, loves _______________" as we bounce it back and forth to each other. We talk about who gave us the balls, whose house this is, church. They both tell you that God gave us the balls, and that this is God's house. It is so wonderful and rewarding in so many ways being with them on Sunday.
I thank you God for blessing me with the opportunity to work with them. They are your Special Angels sent from above, and I get a blessing being with them every week. Just seeing the excitement and look on their face when we finish working on something, and how hard they work is such a blessing in more than one way.

WOW, Jr. just walked up and handed me a check for $200.00 and told me Merry Christmas. That was totally unexpected.

3 Weeks and counting

Well, it was 3 weeks Saturday since the accident. I am so ready to get my shoe back on and do things with Missy and Richard. I really do miss the time we spend together, even though it may be working most of the time. She has been asking me to go to Wal Mart with her but we haven't gone yet.
I did make it to church Sunday. Little Josh is such a sweetheart. He was so concerned about me and wanted to know what happened. He told me that he had been praying for me while I was out.
I got to put my shoe on this morning just long enough to go from the garage to the car and from the car to the front door of my office (you touch the front of Missy's car standing at the garage door if that gives you an idea of how long it was on) and then it came off fast.
Missy and I went to get her letter jacket fixed, again, yesterday and it will be at lease 2 to 3 weeks before it is ready. Hope they will have it done before Christmas since it was going to be her gift from us to her.
Well, guess I better get back to work.

This has been a really long week and am I glad it is Friday. Ever feel like you are nothing but a problem. Right now that is how I feel. I'm sitting here at work right now trying to file folders, and the morning usual and not bump my foot. It is really hard. I am so thankful for my job and the people that I work with. Everyone here has been such a big help. They all are so helpful. I feel like I haven't done anything but be a burden to everyone.
Missy and Richard are so wonderful. I don't know what I could do without them. By the time I get off of work I am really exhausted and in pain, it is hard to walk some days my whole foot is hurting so bad. The two of them try so hard to keep me off my foot, it is really hard to keep from going straight to bed when I get home off of work with my foot propped up. But I try to keep going.
Thank you Missy and Richard for everything you do.

The last 2 weeks have been long. I am so tired of not being able to do things. Missy has asked me to go to Wal-Mart with her several times but I couldn't. I haven't been to church in 2 weeks and do I ever miss the boys. Hopefully, I will be able to go Sunday even if it will be hard to move around. I am so thankful for such a wonderful family. Richard and Missy have been such a blessing.
Work has really been a chore. It is really hard to sit with your foot on a stool with a heating pad under one part of your desk and work at another area of your desk but I am doing it along with other things. Sr, Jr and Robin are keep telling me to go sit down and stay off my foot. They don't even want me to stand up, but that doesn't happen.
Well, guess I better go and get to work (seems like I'm slow as a turtle, but I keep going).
