Tuesday evening, love my life!

     Sorry for going awol but Saturday morning the neighbor woke us up to inform us that a large Ponderosa Pine that is on our property had split during a storm the day before and had landed on his house.  Yes we are responsible.  Hubby was able to spend all day removing the 1/2 on his house and really very little damage.  But the tree is leaning and has to come down.  $1000.00 to tree service.  Just as we were coming in the phone rang and my mother was in the emergency room with heart failure again.  So I have spent the last 4 days in Missoula at the hospital which is just a long 4 days of pain and frustration.  I am home as I have another cataract surgery tomorrow.  Mom is stable but weak.  I think I feel the need to wear my crown again but then I think of all those poor people in Colorado and I am ashamed.  I think we all need to just pray for a better world and realize how blessed we really are, still day to day problems do take their tole.

God Bless

Kim

  1. I'm so sorry Kim. When it rains it pours :( Can somebody from the ward help you with a tree? I hope your Mom feels better. And good luck tomorrow with your surgery!

  2. Your mom and your family are in my prayer(every night per usual). There will be no crown wearing for any of us for awhile I think. And thank the Lord the tree did not do a lot of damage.

  3. Wow, Kim, you've had your share. It's time for you to have a break! Hopefully your Mom recovers soon and is back up and around. Good luck with your eye surgery. I'll be thinking about you. Sending {{hugs}}.

  4. Oh Kim....I am so sorry. July certainly hasn't been your month. I hope Mom is getting stronger everyday, and your surgery goes well.

  5. Ugh, it sucks to hear about the storm and tree problem, but glad to hear your mother is improving. That's a bit nerve wrecking and overwhelming when it all comes at the same time. Best wishes.
