It's been awhile...

I know, I know. I haven't posted a blog in quite a few weeks. And lots of interesting ups and downs have occurred since the last time I posted. I have several blog entries that have been started and just haven't posted because they either haven't been finished or I have pics to upload and included with them. But rather than try and catch up before posting again, I'll just have to include them as they're completed and continue on blogging, just as life continues on.

My grandmother is in the hospital right now. I covet any prayers you can send up for her. She's in the ICU up in Pennsylvania at Holy Spirit Hospital. As of today, she's been there for two weeks. She's on a respirator and is basically needing a miracle right now to be able to go back home. Tomorrow the drs are doing a tracheotomy, which is a good thing for her at this point. I just hope that her body will be able to start getting stronger and stronger but the realistic side of me knows that she's got to be so tired and ready for it to be over.

I visited her last week; went up on Weds and left this past Monday. I had some awesome visits with her; told her I loved her, let her know that I know she loves me, told her about the goofy stuff the kids were up to, how much they love and miss her, etc. I hope to go back up there in the next weeks to see her and bring the kids, too. I know she'd love that.

There have been a lot of ups and downs in my marriage since the last time I posted, too. I'll post more on that later tonight but let me just say that if you haven't seen the movie Fireproof, go see it immediately. It's an awesome movie but even more so when you're married.

Can't wait to catch up on everyone else's blogs tonight as I'm getting mine up-to-date!
