Sunday Night

I am so sick and tired of reruns people! I miss all of my shows that I torture Gary with each week. The poor guy is forced to watch everything from Dancing With the Stars, The Bachelor, Grey's, Brothers & Sisters and Real Housewives of OC to Biggest Loser, Desperate Housewives and Big Shots! I keep telling him that he can only watch so many hours on The History Channel and only so many football games! At least we have moved on from Ice Truckers! Thank the good Lord for Tivo!

I really do not want to sleep on the couch tonight but at the rate that Gary is snoring I will be heading that direction very soon. Darnit - I love our bed but Gary's sleep is much more important right now.

Gary has been playing lots of online poker with play money. It seems to be a great distraction for him for a little while each day. It also helps having his friends over to hang with him! Yes, he has some friends.

I think he was in better spirits today overall. I can't even imagine being in his shoes right now. As close as we are I am not the one facing possible metastic disease. He is so strong and he doesn't even realize it! When I grow up I want to be just like Gary! He is my hero!

A word on circumstances we face. Once again, we can only do what we can do. There are things like Gary's pending tests, that we have NO control over. We are trying to focus on the things we do have control over. Prayer and reading God's Word in various texts is one thing we can control. I have been reading a book by Philip Yancy called Disappointment with God. It is such a great book for anyone to read. I am sure many of us have been disappointed with God at one time or another.
Spending time with friends and family is another thing we can control. We have loved all of the time we spend each day with everyone who has wanted to go on this journey with our family.

I am watching Extreme Home Makeover and I always cry. There are so many people who face struggles and it is so great to see these people smiling! I wish I could hear the TV! The volume is up to 12 and Gary is still winning! :)

I am signing off and will let everyone know when the tests will be as soon as I hear from UCI.

Pray specifically for peace, love, positive spirits, guidance, protection and HEALING! If it is the Lord's will to heal Gary there is no doubt in my mind that He will do just that! Remember, He can do absolutely anything and He doesn't even have to twitch his nose like Samantha!

Love and Hugs!
Good Night Everyone

Pay no attention to my typos! I don't feel like checking the spelling right now.
