weary

Yes – home is a good place to be.

The past three weeks with Amanda in the hospital were not fun at all. They were exhausting. It’s like being gone on a vacation out-of-town for three weeks and then coming home to play catch-up on the bills, laundry, and house cleaning. Only it wasn’t a vacation. And Amanda is still on the mend. She wants to go back to her apartment (which is a good thing) but she is still a bit weak and her staff has to be made aware of what to look for in regards to Amanda’s health, and of the new meds and treatments she has now.

Our next step is to get her evaluated at Children’s Hospital, so we are resting up for that. We are going on Wednesday.

I get to go to work tomorrow – I like my job! Ted and I are taking Amanda to her apartment for the day. We’ll see how it goes. She just seems a bit weary. We all are weary.

Isaiah 40:31 But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.

Hope all is well.

    Glad to hear you are back home finally. Hope Wednesday goes well and is informational. Prayers continue for God’s will.
