Just stopping in to say that “no news is good news.” The last couple of weeks have been pretty much back to normal life. Well, except for the renovations to the house, but that’s another story, deserving of its own book. Or stand up comedy routine, I’m not sure which………

We went to a great concert last weekend, at Shaker Town. What a beautiful night it turned out to be, and what a fun time to be out with friends. It was glorious. And then lunch with “the church group” on Sunday. And a great shower that afternoon and a chance to see friends. Life is good, isn’t it? We appreciate everything a lot more now.

I continue to feel pretty good most of the time. Life is definitely different. When you see me walking at the Mall I won’t be racing or “on a mission” like I used to be. But, hey, I’m moving and getting around without the limp. I’ve started trying to walk at least a mile every day or so. Yesterday I did 2! WHEEE!!! Driving is and always will be an issue, I think, as the right leg is the one that’s affected. But I have picked up a few tricks to cope with it.

I go back this week for my “treatment”–the monthly IV and shot. Time to REALLY start drinking water to plump up those veins, boys and girls. Shouldn’t be too bad, though. The folks at GGC are so nice and caring. They really try not to hurt you. And I really try not to punch them (JUST KIDDING!).

I will try to post notices every couple of weeks, unless something unforeseen comes along. Meanwhile, I have to leave you with some new song lyrics that a friend told me about. They are both humorous and true! Don’t we all know folks like this? Thanks, Manon!!!!

Meanwhile, before I forget, everyone continue to pray for our friend Ron, who is getting closer to his stem cell transplant. And for our friends in VA, Gene & Wendy. They have both been recently diagnosed with cancer, his in the tongue and hers in the stomach, ovaries, etc. Thanks, all.

And now:

Legacy Five Lyrics

“Legacy Five The Right Side Of The Dirt lyrics”

Verse 1
I’ve got a friend or two, they’re always complaining
The sun’s too hot and, would you look, it’s still raining
The Lord’s never willing, the creek is gonna rise
Nothing ever pleases, nothing satisfies
The sky’s always falling, so I thought I’d tell them all a little news
Chorus
Jesus still saves, heaven’s still real, the Bible’s still true and God can still heal
When you wake up in the morning, no matter how it hurts
Be glad you’re still alive and on the right side of the dirt
Verse 2
God can bring a smile in troubled conditions
He can bring a song when you’re locked up in prison
No matter what the trouble you might be going through
God is still your Father, His promises are true
Just think about the good things, He’s made an overcomer out of you
Chorus
Chorus
Tag
Until He comes to takes us, remember what it’s worth
To live your lives in victory on the right side of the dirt
On the right side of the dirt (living on the right side)
Living on the right side of the dirt

Ain’t it the truth, folks, ain’t it the truth? Have a wonderful day and week. Keep looking up and thanking God for all we’ve got! God is good, all the time!
