Yesterday the highlight of my day was spending time with Liz Pieniasek! She came for a visit and then I drove to her house and we had a girls sleepover. It's such a gift to feel well enough to just be able to drive and go to a friends!
Then today I enjoyed the company of two special friends that I have not seen in a very long time! Amanda from church and her little joy, Elias, and then Matty, my previous co-worker came up for a visit on his day off! I love the company and feel especially loved as friends show they care enough to take time out of their busy days and visit me.
Other than than, these past couple days are just nice feeling normal! Tonight I have a date planned with my man and we will go see Casablanca at Victoria Theatre. I need to do as many 'fun' things between now and Monday when I begin my weekly chemo sessions, because I have no idea what the rebound time with that will be.
I will say that it's been refreshing to remember the truth of understanding my circumstances in light of God's purposes. It's so much different than how I could be approaching it. I believe that all my friends, family, patients, and even folks I hardly know who have been praying, have much to do with my attitude, strength, and God's ability to use me to glorify Him. He is trustworthy, not matter what happens. For that, I am thankful. By the way, I bought 6 copies of Dr. Mary Neal's book, To Heaven and Back, if anyone wants to borrow one. It truly changed my life!
