My job at the Welcome Center is practically just down the street from me and I like to walk there and back on my workdays. I even do paced walking with my phone tapping out a beat for me to walk to. Monday, on my way home from work, I tripped.

Sometimes, life just isn’t fair
One or two of you have mentioned that you’ve missed me writing this month. We’ve been trying to get Ashton through the Freshman year of high school. Ashton was way behind when we first picked Ashton up, but we pushed Ashton to catch up and Friday was the last day to turn assignments in. We’re just waiting to see the report card now, but we know that Ashton will be passing almost all of the classes, hopefully with a good margin.

First of all, in case I haven’t told some of you, my urology appointment that was scheduled for yesterday got canceled because my doctor’s office sent her referral to the wrong place. We are trying to get that straightened out so I can set up another appointment.

I called the urologist’s office this morning and set an appointment for 1:00 next Monday. That’s all the news I have for now, but I’ll keep you posted!
Health update
Thank you to so many of you who wrote and said you are praying for me. I wanted to give a quick update to those who are reading but didn’t write. Last night, twenty-four hours after it started, the bleeding stopped. I still plan to get an appointment with the urologist, but I am encouraged that there was nothing visible in the CT scan that might have been serious and the bleeding stopped as quickly as it started. Your prayers were a great comfort to me! I will let you know if my urologist has any ideas about what happened.
Another trip to the ER
Last night, I went to the bathroom before going to bed and I came out to ask Mark if he’d thrown some old coffee out in the toilet. He said “No” and I kind of laughed. I wasn’t laughing this morning when it happened again.

I got a headache on December 30th, two days before we left Oregon, and I’ve had a headache at some point during every day since. This morning, I went to see a chiropractor. He worked really hard to try to loosen me up, but I just about went through the ceiling in pain before I got looser. I’m still not entirely loose, but I only had a brief headache this afternoon that went away without medicine.

Several of you have asked how Mark and I are feeling today. We are both a little sore but doing much better than yesterday. Thank you for asking!

There are a couple of things I need to mention as background for what I’m about to write: 1) I had been fighting a migraine headache for the last two days and 2) yesterday Mark tried to climb into the RV from the driver’s side door in the rain and slipped and hurt his thumb. This morning, he noticed that it was stiff.

I hope you all had a good Christmas in spite of COVID! We had a very small family Christmas this year.
