Its Friday, again...the end of another week. Mid July! Where has the year gone?? Just a few things that have happened this week.

• Monday has come and gone and my memory has faded
• Tuesday and Thursday were Therapy days and my PT thinks I am doing great
• Tom also had an appt with a surgeon about removal of an umbilical hernia. That will take place on Monday AM.
• Wednesday was church and there was an interesting event that happened there. Carter, the asso. pastor had the Bible study and made mention that there was ONLY ONE SPOT open on the Peru Mission trip...Tom poked me and said "YOU KNOW you wanna go" (since I am passionate about trying to speak Spanish). I reminded him that financially it would be an impossibility (especially NOW that we found out we have to pay the hosp $1000 deduct before the surgery :-() But I took the chance and went to the pastor telling him of my deep desire to go and how I am very communicable in Spanish etc. He saw my passion, put his hand on my shoulder and said "YOU ARE GOING--we will work this out!" Praise God I will pray that it really does work out.
• Thursday I called my mom to ask for her Apt. # to mail her birthday present and in the conversation I decided to mention about the Peru trip - SHE IS A PRAYER WARRIOR and I knew I could count on her to pray...When I told her, she said "Are you serious, I have cold chills because when I saw your church newsletter and it mentioned Peru, I said Diane is going on this!" What great confirmation! I am going to trust God for his provision. As my mom said "Who owns the cattle on a thousand hills~!"
• Friday will be our day to grocery shop, go to the $ Tree and fill up the propane tank!
