1-5-21 I don’t have much to say except we have a bat now. I can’t tell you guys things because then you send Amazon packages with bat exterminators in them…but it is the most exciting thing right now. We will conquer…I hope. The bird feeders are working beautifully. Thank you! I also would like to report that driving over an …

January 1st 2022 Happy New Year. It was the most uneventful one yet and I do not care at all. I won’t go through the long list of what 2021 brought us…I’m sure you are all aware at this point. I did get a message from my Zyia upline….and she asked for one moment or event that stood out in …

Dec 27th Its like Mark just knows when I’m about to update you all…he sent me over another “devotional” to share with you today. You can skip right to it if you want. Or you can get an update first. Christmas was good. Even though the kids are much older this was the first year they slept past 6:30am to …

First or Last Christmas It’s the eve of Christmas Eve and I cannot sleep again.  However, its not from pain—I don’t know necessarily why, I just can’t sleep. My thoughts have been running around the last couple of weeks as Dusty and a team of volunteers have been working feverishly to get us moved to the new house,  The final …

December 21. An unbelievable thing happened. Unbelievable. We were hoping to get the last of our belongings out of the KC house this weekend so as soon as Pastor Chris finished online, I grabbed my coat and headed out. Gas station first and then to the house. But when you get there….you realize you still have a TON of stuff …

December 17th (unedited version…running out the door!) Its quiet and dark and no one is up. I don’t often get time to just sit and type like Mark does. I’m often just coming in on 3 wheels (bald and low on air) to do a quick “report” to keep you guys updated and feel slightly out of my head. I …

Its late. I’m tired. But I did promise an update. Mark’s intense pain is gone but there is always pain. Now his back muscles just feel very sore and achey. Bending over is still super hard. He just feels…sick…all the time and maybe this is just what it will feel like to have an illness and be under treatment. I …

Post Surgery

dec 9 Right after the surgery he no longer felt the tingly numbness feeling in his legs. They told him he would be in alot of pain for 2-3 days. One NP gave us a different impression but I think from the ablation…he will feel more pain. They literally burned the tumor out. They inserted a coil for height and …

December 6th It really is remarkable how much better Mark has felt (in his back) since last Monday. I could say it is because he is not wearing that brace or it could just be a bit miraculous! Tonight he lays on his back in our room with some really tight back muscles and a feeling of being “sore” but …
