Prayers Please

Dad is having surgery on Tuesday. They are going to drain the psuedocyst into his stomach and possibly remove the gallbladder. The doctor explained that sometimes the cyst has to be drained more than once but we are hoping and praying that one time will do it. Please pray for my Dad that the surgery will be successful. He weighs 152 pounds. He used to weigh 174. He has not eaten since Jan. 12 when he had the pancreatic attack. His spirits were good today, I think he is so ready to get well and back on his feet. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers. I will post after Tuesday.

I Painted furniture today!

I got up early and did some much needed house cleaning! I have been neglecting my house keeping chores for several weeks. I've been so busy with coaching and on the road that I had fallen behind. So this morning I mopped and vacuumed the house. I'm still not done with all the cleaning but I'm getting there. Today was such a beautiful day that I couldn't resist painting a few pieces of furniture. After church, we had lunch with a good friend and then I came home and got busy with my painting projects. I finished two more dining room chairs and I put the first coat on of black paint on a small desk that I bought. I painted the dining room chairs black also. I have two more left to paint and I'll be finished with that project. I plan to paint the pedestal and the underneath part of my dining room table and then later on the hutch. I will post pictures of before and after when I get time. Please continue to pray for my Dad. He is still in a special care facility trying to get stronger. He is still not eating so therefore he is very weak. Also, pray for my Mom as she goes each day and takes care of him and encourages him to try and get stronger. Often times, we forget those that are the caregivers in our prayers and thoughts. Have a great week.
