Let’s
get July started with a rousing rendition of my latest colorful dream. This one happened inside our house. A strange noise caught my attention. I glanced to my left and saw a tiny
hummingbird smacking itself against the window like a june bug trying to get
outside. What in the world was a
hummingbird doing inside? Ever the
helpful one, I went over to be of assistance.
I opened the window and removed the screen. As I sat the screen on the floor, I noticed a
second creature lurking around. This one
was furry and about Freddy’s size. It
was white and brown and had a face that looked like a weasel’s. It was timid, but came right up to me when I
bent down. Even let me pick it up and
snuggle a bit. I sat it back down and
finished replacing the screen and closing the window. It was gone when I turned my attention back to
it, though. Intrigued, I called out
“Here, kitty, kitty, kitty.” Hey, I
didn’t know what it was, and it kind of looked a little like a cat. Sure enough the beast peeked its head out
from around a corner. Again it came
right up to me and I picked it up. This
time I took it to the bedroom where Chris was still sleeping. Freddy was in the bed with her. I put our new little friend down on the bed
to see Freddy’s reaction. She looked up,
yawned, and went back to sleep. Chris
did pretty much the same thing. The
creature meanwhile slowly disappeared into the folds under Chris’ pillow. Good morning, world!
Quick
Chris update. She is still sore. Partly from the surgery itself. Still some soreness from before the
shot. Well, not the same soreness. She can detect the throb that was there, but
now it’s not as starkly painful as it was.
Guess that’s a good thing. She
has also had a headache since the surgery.
Well, she had that before the procedure.
Probably something to do with the spike in her blood pressure. Her other doctor is watching that with
us. We have to take it once a day at
different times and keep a record. She doesn’t
have nearly as fabulous a nurse as I have when I am down, but I’m doing my best
to hover.

Corinthians 8:6 says, “There is but one
God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is
but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we
live.”
Father,
thanks for dream critters. And please awaken
the pain-reducing power in this shot Chris had.
Amen.
