I'll let you in on a little secret: lately, I have been selecting and updating the mood-o-meter. So, this morning as Jeannette left for work, I asked her how she was feeling. "I'm fine - why?" Since there just isn't a cute enough picture for "fine" in the mood library, I quickly replied, "Aren't you feeling a little curious today?" Silence fell over the house -- in fact, if it weren't for the hard, pounding rain against the windows, we could have heard dust falling on the coffee table. "Curious? Why?" More silence. Finally, from downstairs I hear, "Oh yeah, my appointment!"
Today marks the first of many appointments in the process of Jeannette's reconstruction. Guess what? It has almost become routine. Whereas last year was filled with concern, worry, and wonder, lately this entire process has become much like a Saturday errand list -- fairly easy to accomplish, as long as one remains organized. With our list, we are taking it one step at a time, one day at a time -- without fear or apprehension. We wish the same for all of you.
