Back in the Saddle

Hey everybody!!! Sorry it's been a while since I have blogged here. I just got off the worst call week I have ever had....L-O-N-G hours and not much sleep.....but I survivied, and then had a long 4-day weekend up here in Ruidoso. YEAH! I will work another full week this next week, Monday through Friday and then we will have a 5-day weekend up here again. Up here they say.......Change of Altitude = Change of Attitude........and I have to whole-heartedly agree. This place up here is such a haven of peace for us. We are making new friends and getting some much needed rest. GO GOD! Clay & I are both doing really well, as all our kiddos are too. Understand that we got some rain at home while we've been gone......YEAH!......and it has rained off and on up here too, which they have really needed too. We have a covered deck, and are still able to go outside, Praise the Lord, and enjoy the beauty that God created.
Guess I better go, gotta get ready for church (we have found a church we attend when we are up here, and not with our church family, Lamesa Christian Fellowship, when we are back home).

God's love & mine,
Nonnie

P.S. ~ Please keep my mom, Kathy, in your prayers. She had some repeat eye exams this past week, and the doc told her that she has had a stroke sometime in the past. She is really worrying over this, so keep her in your prayers for healing and PEACE! Thanks!!! Also, my sis-in-law, Allison, who lives in Lubbock (married to my brother) was scheduled for a much needed hernia repair tomorrow, Monday, but another doctor reported Friday to her that "something is wrong with her blood and her immune system", and the surgery is put on hold. Keep them in your prayers while they continue testing (and that the hernia will not continue to grow). Thanks!
