There is a Season

"Find me a place in the sunlight to sit and
think and listen to the sweet inner voice
that says so quietly, 'Peace, be still.'"
- Joyce Sequichie Hifler

Hi!  I am so behind on everything.  So behind and very tired.  I am going to post the winners of the "Weekly Sentence" game tomorrow morning when I post the six new letters.  I just can't stay on the computer any longer today.  I'm very sorry and I hope you all forgive me.

John and I were in the car most of the day yesterday.  We went out of town to his cardiologist.  He is doing very well!!  There is just a "sliver" of water around his heart that should be absorbed naturally.  We are both so relieved!!  The interesting thing about the fluid being drained is that John no longer has sleep apnea!!  The fluid was the obstruction that was causing this!  WOW!  I also realized that he has had this fluid for at least as long as we have been dating - almost 3 years - because he has had the sleep apnea that long, among other symptoms the doctor explained were caused by the fluid.  I am amazed it had gone undetected that long.

Matt's lizard passed away.  Poor Matt.  The lizard got some kind of patchy spots and died.  He passed away while Matt was out of town.  I don't like this because he was in my care.  ~sigh~  I really liked the lizard.  He was actually very sweet.

Okay, I am off of here.  I will return tomorrow morning to hand out Awards and post six new letters.  Thanks for understanding.  Have a good weekend, my friends!  Val =)

  Dearest Valerie: I thought I already answered this but guess I did  not as I am not down in your comment section. (Maybe I emailed you about it?)  I am so happy John got a good report, that has to be a very big relief.  I am so sorry you have other worries right now, you & I know what they are.  Thanks for the wonderful Anniversary wishes.  I always thought you have to be old to be married 46 years, but that can't be, as we certainly are NOT old. (LOL) Sorry Matt lost his pet.  Love, Merry

  Glad that John got good news. I have never heard that fluid on the heart could cause the sleep apnea. I can see why though as a person can't hardly breathe with that fluid buildup. Sorry about the lizard. Helen
