Today Ms. Kate and I celebrate our 58th wedding anniversary. I find that simply amazing because that is something that old people do, isn’t it? Yes we are a bit worn and tattered but I don’t feel that we are “old’ and most days we don’t even look or feel particularly old. A few years ago our “older generation” of parishioners began celebrating 60th anniversaries and we attended their parties, and I remember remarking how wonderful that it was. Now, Ms, Kate and I are only two years away from that! Wow. So Lord, if you are listening —- I’m laying out a goal to go maybe a few years even beyond 60 years. If we can just get Ms. Kate well, and up and running again. 

When Doctor Roberts did Ms. Kate’s surgery he said he anticipated that he would be able to do the “resection” in five or six weeks. Wednesday will be two weeks  so hopefully it will only be four more weeks until we take her back to the hospital and have her “put back together”. Unfortunately my job of handling her wound care has not gone smoothly. But, —- it it is a learning process and you just clean up the messes as you go. On the bright side, I did get her hair washed today which Mae her feel a lot better. 

Yesterday I made a crockpot of vegetable soup and if I may say so —- it is delicious and Ms. Kate says so too. I also baked an Angel Food cake and put an orange glaze on it. It’s our 58th anniversary cake. It’s pretty darn tasty too. 

We sat in the sunporch for quite awhile today watching the birds and enjoying  the fresh air and sunshine. It sure doesn’t feel like a February day and I’m very grateful for that. It’s a spirit lifter kind of day for sure. 

That’s it, Got to tend to0 my bride. Have a blessed day. Peace.
