Trucking right along......

It has been so long since I have posted! I started back to school in January. I am attending Kaplan University to receive my Bachelor's of Science in Health and Wellness. Even if I can never go back to work again, I have always wanted to have my degree and I am so interested in Nutrition I thought it would be a great choice. Plus, I like to stay hopeful and if I can go back to work, then I will be able to have a job where I can be of help to others. Jesse and I are doing great. We are actually celebrating our 4 year anniversary tomorrow the 10th of July. My heart has been doing well. I saw my cardiologist in June. I have been retaining more fluid than usual so my cardiologist increased my diuretic and in just a couple of days I was down 10lbs. I can honestly say that I am feeling much better! I can honestly say that everything overall is going quite well. I have my good and bad days but mostly I am just blessed to have my life, faith, Jesse, my family and friends! 

“Most people, if they had really learned to look into their own hearts, would know that they do want, and want acutely, something that cannot be had in this world. There are all sorts of things in this world that offer to give it to you, but they never quite keep their promise.

“At present we are on the outside… the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the pleasures we see. But all the pages of the New Testament are rustling with the rumor that it will not always be so. Someday, God willing, we shall get “in”… We will put on glory… that greater glory of which Nature is only the first sketch.

We do not want to merely “see” beauty–though, God knows, even that is bounty enough. We want something else which can hardly be put into words–to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. - C.S. Lewis
