Here we are….12.5 weeks later and it is time to return to the real world. What I thought would be a 6 week recovery doubled itself quickly. I don’t think anyone starts a journey and thinks “it will be over before you know it”. It seemed in the beginning it was going to take forever. Now, tonight looking back, it was no time. 

     In three months time I have fought for my life. I completed physical therapy. I took two trips, one to Pennsylvania and one to Florida. I finished two quilts. I completed two tops and have another started. I have almost completed one that was started by my daughter in love’s Mamaw. I read three books. I have seen more doctors than I thought I would see in a lifetime. I have watched more Netflix than allowed. I have spent some time at the pool. I have had more tests that I never even studied for and passed! LOL  We have gotten to bring mom to the house and I’ve gotten to cook for her. I have had visitors in the house almost weekly and so many offers for help that it was overwhelming. This weekend I got back on the motorcycle and put in over 400 miles. To say I’m a completely satisfied woman is an understatement. At one point it started to rain, Ryan asked if I was ok. My response was “I’m so happy, rain doesn’t bother me!” 

     If you are reading this, I am sure if you weren’t here or offering to help, you were praying. For ALL those things I am appreciative. Friends are mostly definitely a hot commodity and I believe mine are the hottest! You each mean so much to me. My sisters were in constant contact either in person or on the phone. How do people live without sisters? How do people live without their BFF? How do people live without their dogs? One thing I know beyond a doubt….I don’t wanna find out!

     On that note, this little blog is finished for the evening. It is time to roll it all up, get the dog taken care of, situate the things needed for tomorrow and call it a night. After having very few alarms the last 3 months I’m sure the one set for the morning will scare the begeezies out of me, but not as much as a possum!  

     Good Night my friends. Thank you for sharing your world with me. I am proud to say you’re mine.
