Some things posted on FB today…
“Stay away from negative people. They have a problem for every solution.”
“Being cremated is my last hope for a smoking hot body.”
And my personal favorite of the day…
“The more you weigh, the harder you are to kidnap. Stay safe. Eat tamales.”
I’ll be sharing these with Ryan tomorrow when I get to watch him. I’m sure he’ll chuckle. At least I hope he does!
Please allow me some leeway for this follow-up to my last post…
Psalm 89: 8,9 & 11 Who is like you, Lord God Almighty? You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you. You rule over the surging sea; when its waves mount up, you still them. The heavens are yours, and yours also the earth; you founded the world and all that is in it.
You get it, right? About surfing?? Alright, it’s a stretch, but I did ask for some leeway…
As you know, Ryan likes to surf. Janine showed him this picture that I bought for his room.
Ryan’s reaction…PRICELESS!!
And, YES! I’ll be hanging it up soon.
LAUGHTER noun: the activity of laughing; the manifestation of joy
Yesterday, Bob and I witnessed what we think was the sound of laughter from Ryan. He was smiling and a sound came out of his trache. I heard this one other time about a month or so ago when I was watching him. I’m not sure what it actually was/is, but I’m going to consider it a laugh until someone tells me otherwise…and even then, I may decide to still consider it laughter…
Thank you Lord for taking care of my son. Please give him back to us completely whole and restored. Thank you. Amen
The giant in front of you is never bigger than the God inside of you…
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
From one of my favorite authors of all time…
“There are far better things ahead than any we leave behind.”
C. S. Lewis
My favorite time while watching Ryan is while he’s getting his vest treatment. He seems so relaxed and happy. Must feel like he’s getting a good massage. I took a picture of him smiling and tried sending it to myself so I could post it tonight. But, I made a mistake by deleting the picture before I sent it, so it’s lost forever…or is it? It’s in my mind’s eye and heart. And, it looked a lot like this one…
Ryan says “Thank you for praying for me.”
It’s nice coming home to a smile from Ryan. He looks good tonight; like he’s been well taken care of. Thank you Grandma Sue and Papa…and nurses for taking care of my boy while I was away.
I can’t wait until I get to watch him tomorrow. Mom’s away, so we’re going to have some real fun!
Left on a business trip this morning. Went in to say bye-for-now to Ryan but he was asleep. So, I kissed his face and left…
So I got my concealed gun permit yesterday and went over to the local Bass Pro Shop to get a .357 Magnum for home protection. When I was ready to pay for the gun and bullets, the clerk said “Strip down, facing me.”
Making a mental note to complain to the NRA about the gun control wackos running amok, I did as she had instructed. When the hysterical shrieking and alarms finally subsided, I found out she was referring to how I should place my credit card into the card reader.
I’ve been asked to shop elsewhere in the future. They need to make their instructions to seniors a little clearer.
I still don’t think I looked that bad…
Well, another day has passed and I didn’t use Trigonometry once…
Ryan and I are just chillin’ tonight. Just finishing up his vest treatment (something he gets 4 times a day) that helps clear his lungs. I can tell he enjoys it, because he’s relaxed and has a smile on his face. the vibration of the vest feels like a massage. Who doesn’t like a good massage now and then, huh? I wish he could enjoy a massage for a massage’s sake, though, and not because he needs it…if you know what I mean…
Thank you all for your continued prayers for my boy…
