Family

The call came at 4:30am this morning, my brother-in-law was moved to CCU and not doing well...the conversation between me and God became pretty serious. After a routine colonoscopy 2 days earlier and removong 1 pollup turned into a nightmare on Sunday afternoon. Rick collasped in the front lawn bleeding from you know where...lots of bleeding. The nasty culprit "blood thinners" he was taking from the heart attack he had several months earlier. He is now holding steady and the docs are trying to get his blood pressure to get back to normal. Prayers are needed, so if you feel led, lift him up. My first day back to work was pretty good, although I really like being at home. About 3p I started getting a headache and still have one...so after I finish this I am going to bed. My neighbor called to see if I wanted to watch Ella...ella is a 3 year old cutie pie who lovingly calles me Nana. She tells her parents that I'm her nana...on my desk I have a picture they gave me of little Ella with the title underneath "my little cupcake" and she is! She is precious and sweet. I am looking forward to this weekend...it will be fun and she loves going to church. :D Speaking of sweet, I want to share a great "little" dessert for one. ENJOY!
