Just another day in paradise?

5 days and counting ...

Dad is staying (mostly) comfortable with the help of his morphine and has enjoyed visits from ALL of his grandkiddos ... 8 in all! Miss and Bill and their crew came down Wednesday night late and on Thursday the older boys and Bapo enjoyed watching Mall Cop - Will "snuggled" next to Dad in bed. My kiddos have had quick visits (thank goodness ... Cale has been a handful at the hospital) before heading over to VBS this week. All three were able to participate this year and will be singing at Mass tomorrow.

Appreciate your prayers and well wishes. Not sure how long of a stay we are looking at. Need to control the pain and get everything in order to come back to our digs.

In the building/housing news ... there are two pieces of large machinery (no clue WHAT they are ... Dad told me the name of one of them - they are BIG and yellow) just waiting to be used! I know Dad is excited about getting that going. I will post pictures as we move forward - proof too for Dad that dirt is getting moved.

God Bless -

Howard's Arizona friends, Ev and Mary, would like the address of the hospital he'll be in for a few days as well as the address of the daughter doing this blog, please. Tell him we said Hi and are thinking about him.
