All is well

Jesus said, “Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, because I am meek and lowly in heart, "and you will find rest to your souls." For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.” (Matthew 11:29, 30)

This was a week that started with concern about what was going to happen to Harold. Dwayne's Dad came through surgery very well. He was safely at the nursing home Tuesday evening with some pain medication and the realization that he was going to experience pain from surgery. It was a long day. One of the clearances didn’t make it to the hospital with his paper work so surgery was briefly delayed. We dropped him off, went and grabbed a bite to eat and got home around 9 pm.

I had a bug for a few days during the week that laid me low. It was cold, snowy and icy out so staying home was fine with me. Dwayne, on the other hand, had to drive bus in the blowing snow.

I spent the afternoon with all three of my kids on Friday. We ran errands and then ate lunch together at IHOP. We got to chat and be silly. It was a great afternoon. Becky and I grocery shopped yesterday afternoon. Joshua did not make it to church today because of the snow. Aaron had to drive to Albany in his new (to him) Blazer yesterday to fill out paperwork. All is well in the Durand family. We have plenty to keep us busy and we're healthy. I’m grateful for the restful week we’ve had.
