time

I feel like there isn't enough light in the day to get everything I want to get done. I have struggled to get up in the morning because the sun has been sleeping in too, Booy... I am looking forward to daylight saving. With a full time job it is crazy how fast the week goes by. I can remember when I was young when my mom told me to wait a week. Back then a week was a century, but now it is nothing. I feel like I have expressed this once before in my blog. It is funny at certain times in our lives, how the value of time changes. It is important to take the moments in our days to take a step back and analyzing ourselves in how we are doing, every once in a while. For me every week I begin to think about what I am going to write in my blog post I start analyzing myself on my actions of the past week. Sometimes I feel like what I am doing isn't my best and sometimes I think to myself, "you have done your best," but let me be completely honest this isn't common. If I continue to keep trying to do my best according to God's will. He will be cheering me along; being committed to Him is something that I am hoping to accomplish here on this earth.
I have been running up in the foothills on all the trails and it is a lot of fun to be out in nature. It is kind of tricky because sometimes I don't know where I am going, but with friendly and helpful people eventually I find my way. This weekend we went on a walking tour of Randolph and Robertson's area where there is a little pocket of mid-century homes. We meet some cool people that enjoy the architecture of mid-century homes just as much as we do or even more.

Chalk It Up as a Miracle.........

Some of you may know, but Ashley went through another Heart Transplant yesterday. After her first first new heart started to fail, we re-listed on the her on the transplant list immediately. We knew getting another heart would be a long shot, but we wanted the option to be there if a heart came available. Sure enough 18 hours on the list a second heart came available that was a perfect match for Ashley. Ironically, it took 4.5 months and then 2 hearts in the same week. We, including the doctors, are all chalking it up as a miracle. It was decided not to wait to see if the first heart would handle the load she would need but rather to move forward with the new donor heart. Going through a transplant a second time makes you really feel for the family who lost their daughter, sister, spouse and friend. We are grateful again for the family and the individual who choose to give life. We were in quite a predicament and feel only divine intervention could have provided a means out. Ashley is

Stinking Breathing Tube!!!! Actually they are out!!! YAYA

Anywho the stinking breathing tube is still in, which makes it more than miserable for Ashley. She is so frustrated, can't talk, can't get anyone to understand what she is trying to say.  It's difficult to see her suffer like she has. The Dr. just told us it's not all just up to her, her lungs may just be that full of fluid that the oxygen saturation may just be low. They have gotten lots of fluid off her which is helping and we are hoping later today will be the day. It's going to take getting that out to  get her up walking and making leaps and bounds of improvements. We are calling today day 2 post surgery, she was on bypass through the weekend which did not put her ahead any, she had fluid on board already from the first surgery so now the fluid has basically compounded. 8PM Update- Breathing tubes are out, still on oxygen, much less irritated, she has one of her favorite nurses on tonight and we think another one of her fav's  will be working with her

quarantine = self reflection

I was talking with my lovely mother on Facetime this morning and she suggested to post on my blog. I look at my blog and noticed I haven't posted since November! So here you go, during this crazy time I am no longer working and my day to day tasks have shifted drastically. I am sure all of you know what is going on all over the world. I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. I have been in this situation before. I was taken out of the game due to my heart, my life was soccer. Now my life was going to work and heading off to soccer practice, but COVID-19 has taken that away. I am reflecting on my response when my heart wasn't doing that well. At first I was frustrated and asking why? Now I am doing the same thing. WHY? Because I am HUMAN I know!!! This time I caught myself and decided to choose another route.  My alternate route has been getting outside every darn day, no matter the weather and enjoying the beauties of this earth, sun, clouds, rain, breeze, nature, the s
