NEW POST


I can't believe I haven't written anything on here since April! A lot has happened this summer...well, maybe not so much.

I joined Statewood Baptist Church the week after Tammy was baptized...and I love it. For the first time in 30 years, I feel like I have a church home. Our congregation is small, but we are constantly praying for it to grow and I have no doubt that God will answer our prayers.

This was the hottest summer I can remember since the summer of '59 when I was expecting Buddy. That was a summer I'll never forget. We lived in Battle Creek in half of a house. Our bedrooms were upstairs and very little breeze came through the stingy windows. Of course we had no air-conditioning...hardly anybody did back then. Many nights that summer I'd take a pillow and blanket and sleep on the front porch.

I was in the hospital in July with pneumonia for 5 days. Tammy was in a month later with symptoms of a stroke. She's still not recovered from it. There was no lasting effects other than she is tired, weak and feels sick to her stomach all the time. The doctor says he doesn't know what caused it...blames it on the meds she was taking. Personally, I blame it on the Vitamin B-12 shots she was NOT taking. In researching a lack of B12 that's one of the things it can cause..stroke.

My computer went out on me and I bought a new laptop...even though I got the desktop computer fixed. Now I have a back-up!! The picture with this post was taken today with the built-in laptop camera when Tammy stopped by here with Teri's baby, Wyatt.
