Yesterday I found myself a little frustrated and grumpy most of the day. My mom left and went back home and my mother-in-law came. My kids are very excited to spend a couple of days with Amy (my MIL) here as it's been awhile since they've spend some quality time together. I think my frustration is coming from the use of my walker---it feels like it'll be a while before I won't need to use it. On a good note, I did get to shower (with Michael's assistance). It's a little strange to feel so vulnerable and to have Michael do so much of my own personal care (I will leave details out). On the other hand his grace, love, patience, and care is more evident in the last couple of days than any amount of flowers, fun dates, or gifts that have accumulated in our last 10 years.
Michael is gone for a couple of days to Tulsa for work and my MIL is here in his absence. I'm thankful for a supportive family network that is so helpful during these crazy times.
