Dear Family,
Some weeks are harder than others. This week Oregon is scared of COVID which
means they are ordering online more than shopping in the store. I worked a lot of overtime this week. Through all of this Bobby has been
supportive. My body, not so much. My muscles are sore but my heart is
warm. I am blessed to have a husband
that is understanding and loving.
Bobby also made several dinners
this week; steak and potatoes, grilled cheese, and BBQ chicken. He continues to do that hard work even though
I have not been home to eat the initial meal.
Leftovers are fabulous.
Bobby heard me when I came home
from work around 5 PM one day. I said, “I
want to crawl in a hole and die.” I hadn’t
said that since Adriel was born at 3:30 AM 20 years ago. That’s how tired I was on Thursday. I took a “nap” at 6:00 PM and woke up at 1 AM
to work again at 5 AM. I did miss the home
group. Pray for people working in
Grocery stores, please.
I did have a day off and was
able to have a great conversation with Seth.
He asked, “How did I get diagnosed with Asthma anyway?” My story was, “When you were a baby you and
Adriel had a cold for two months. I
brought you both to the Dr. and said, ‘I haven’t gone to church, the park, or the
library for two months and I am going crazy!’
He said, ‘OK, they have asthma, here’s a prescription for inhalers.’” Seth was not impressed. “I have had that diagnosis follow me all my life
because you had cabin fever?”
I had a great lunch with Adriel
and mentioned Asthma to her. She
remembers having to use inhalers all throughout grade school for coughing fits
and that Seth needed them to. I am sad
they really did need the diagnosis but glad it wasn’t just for me. Now they have grown out of it so that is wonderful.
Adriel has now experienced
mucking out stalls and gotten to know some horse personalities. She is experiencing horse life because her
boyfriend loves horses and has begun a job working with them. How fun.
I also like horses. They are so
beautiful, feel amazing and I love rubbing that spot that makes them
happy.
May you also find joy in giving
it. May you find life is wonderful! May you feel blessed and may you enjoy every
breath God has given you.
Much love,
Cristy
PS My
brother-in-law had a hemorrhagic stroke on the right side of his brain. Please pray for healing and his family as
this is a hard time for all of them.
