I MISS YOU ALL!

Hello my dear bloggie friends!  I've missed you all so much and I've missed reading what all's been going on in your lives!  Thought I'd just check in and make sure you're all still there, and give you a little update on our goings-on around here.  Wedding is 3 weeks away, lots of last minute details to take care of, still getting things cleaned out of the house, a few lookers at the house, working on the garden - looking good so far. 

In other news, I'd like you keep my dear MIL in your prayers.  Since I posted last, she suffered a stroke and is mostly paralyzed on her right side.  She can still swallow a little bit, and she is getting nutrition (for which we are thankful) but trying to rehab her broken leg/hip on the left side while the right side is immobile is going to be next to impossible if some of the feeling in her right leg doesn't come back.  I don't see her ever getting out of a wheelchair.  She seems depressed and maybe has given up.  We're not sure what she's thinking since she has Alzheimers.  Our prayer is that God will do whatever's best for her.  We are not at the point of making life/death decisions right now, but her prognosis is not good.

My cat, Jasper, has disappeared, too, from the farm.  I don't know if he's gone visitin' or if a coyote got him. He was such a GREAT cat, good mouser, and he followed us around like a puppy dog.  He'd even taken to riding on the Mule with me - just hopped right in and sat next to me while I drove around the farm.  I miss him already - I hope he shows up.  We may not be able to keep a cat out there - I don't know.

Take care my friends - love you all - I'll be back soon!!
