Trying to Rejoin Civilization |
I'm going to try to rejoin civilization a little this week. The recovery period has been harder than I anticipated. I was supposed to get back into the doctor 7 days after surgery to have the splint removed, stitches taken out, and to be casted. However, they were booked, so I was scheduled for today. Then on Friday the office called and moved it to tomorrow. I'm scared to death that my stitches will permanently be a part of my leg. My nerve damage is still very present and I'm a little nervous about the pain it will inflict when removing ingrown stitches! :-)
We've had quite a week- five out of six kids have been sick and on antibiotics this past week: 3 cases of strep, one sinus infection, and one round of brochial spasms resulting in the need for an inhaler. (Update: Number 6 came home from school sick today.) My mom and dad stayed last week to help out. They were super help. D has also been incredible. Saturday I got cabin fever and decided to go to Z's gym. meet and ended up regretting it. A three hour event turned into a seven hour nightmare. I was bushed when I got home and my foot was swollen pretty badly again.
I realized last night that I needed to get back on track with my Lent postings also, so here are some verses for today. These are all found in Galatians 3.
"Does the God who lavishly provides you with His own presence, His Holy Spirit, working things in your lives you could never do for yourselves, does He do these things because of your strenuous moral striving or because you trust Him to do them in you?"
"And that means that anyone who tries to live by his own effort, independent of God, is doomed to failure."
"The person who lives in right relationship with God does it by embracing what God arranges for him." |
