Road to Recovery

It's the Lord's Day! We just got done listening to Pastor Keith's online sermon from July 8. We are both encouraged in the Lord. Yumi's gotten to see the horse pictures and of course she wants more! She can't wait to get home to meet her new horse, TJ.

Yumi got her Foley taken out this morning and has gotten up to use the restroom. She sat up for awhile on the rocking chair and finally got back into bed. The docs upped her dose on the Dilautid and were also going to give her IV ibuprofen. She's been kind of sleepy for the last hour. Her breathing and oxygen is doing well, she has the nose prongs instead of a mask. They want her to work on taking off the tape and gauze that is over her scar and steri-strips. We made the goal of starting to work on that around lunchtime.

Praise God that He answered our prayer about staying in our room! I actually had a full night's sleep. I am still tired, but I don't remember waking every hour or so like I usually do. I even had a dream! Was a stress dream, but a dream nonetheless!

Wow, Yumi, that incision is mighty impressive! You and Uncle Steve both sport spiffy marks on your bellies. What is the story on the horse? Is it for real?

Yumi, I'm so sorry that Mrs. Davison had to copy my joke. It is so sad that she can't come up with her own. Ha Ha! I hope she reads this! I couldn't help but notice that she told you the same joke on Saturday the 21st that I had told you on Thursday the 19th. I guess she needs to keep up on the blog comments a bit better, don't you think? Anyway, I sure hope you're feeling better and that your recovery is quick. I'm glad you got to keep your private room too. That's nice! Limit your Disney Channel viewing. We don't want your brain to turn to mush while you're there. The travel channel, food channel, learning channel, anything but Hannah Montana!! We miss you and we'll see you soon.
Yuki, I already told David, but I'll tell you too...we have childcare for Tuesday through Friday this week. These people are ready and planning on the kiddos so please call me or have David call me ahead of time if he doesn't need one of those days. I think he should use them all! I know he has dinners coming Tues and Thurs as well. Don't you wish you were home for all the childcare and all the meals. Hee hee! Miss you! Talk to you soon.

Okay, Yuki, I had that weird thing again where i can't tell if my message sent or not. If this is the 2nd time then you can just ignore it. I forgot to include Yumi's joke. Here it goes:
A blonde is driving down the street and she sees a sign on a tree next to a mansion that says "$500,000." She reads the phone number on the sign and calls it right away and says, "I'd like to buy this item and I'll send the check in the mail tomorrow." A couple days later she received a package in the mail with keys in it. She called the phone number and asked what the keys were for. When they told her the keys were for the mansion she'd purchased she said, "Oh, I thought I bought that nice tree." Talk to you later.

Yumi, I'm so sorry that Mrs. Vincent seems to think that I read your blog to keep up on what jokes she has found rather than on how you are doing. It's so sad that she is so self absorbed. HAHA (Love you Ker!). Guess I should pay closer attention. I've been focusing on not repeating my OWN jokes, and that's enough for my little brain!

So Yumi, am I understanding right? You got a horse, like a real one? How cool is that?!? I always wanted a horse... but it never happened :( I guess you're parents are just way cooler than mine.

Ivy thinks your scare is pretty awesome. Makes the huge soccer bruise she's been showing off look like nothing. Good luck with the tape. That doesn't sound like a lot of fun.

Ok, going with the horse theme, here's your joke for today:

Falling Off The Horse

The old time pastor was galloping down the road, rushing to get to church on time. Suddenly his horse stumbled and pitched him to the ground. In the dirt with a broken leg, the pastor called out, "All you saints in Heaven, help me get up on my horse!"

Then, with superhuman effort, he leaped onto the horse's back and fell off the other side.

Once again on the ground, he called to Heaven, "All right, just half of you this time!"

I've read so many jokes as I search for new ones, they all start to blur together. I didn't go back and read all the jokes posted so far, so if this is a repeat... OOPS!

Still prayin',
Jodi
