He Is Always Faithful in Meeting Mr. Jesus Christ

CRANK IT UP!!!

The good Lord has smiled upon me, restoring my mind to an ever improving state of stability. I'm beginning to have emotions, creative thoughts and the desire and ability to function during the day. It is taking time but I'm getting the house back in order, business is tended to and I actually am enjoying being in the presence of others and talking. My smile has come back! I feel safe claiming these changes after five days of steady progress. I struggled through a little over three months with this mania/depression cycling like a yo-yo, Jesus carried me when I couldn't stand. When the medication changes were too much for me God gave me rest.

My reading comprehension is improving, so my study time is more productive. I do need to talk with a doctor about this dyslexia as it is becoming more problematic. I've noticed it when I'm on the computer and I make errors. I can correct that, it's just an irritation, but today I realized it is a larger problem and is extending outside my private experience. When I had my visit with the orthopedic doctor some paperwork had errors, all mine and all simple transposing of numbers and letters. No big deal until the nurse tried to arrange appointments and my information was wrong. So, enough is enough. I need to find out why this is happening.

And then the orthopedic doctor visit...that went well, my x-rays showed progress. Now on to an MRI to see what is going on. I'm walking a bit more with the help of the brace and it feels good to be outdoors wandering a bit. Will be sticking with the therapy exercises even though they are not as of yet achieving the goals the doctor had hoped for. I just keep plugging away at it, grateful to be up and able to walk fairly normal.

Rolling into the weekend and my only hopes are for a haircut and a desperate desire to make it to church. I haven't been since before Christmas and feel a deep need for fellowship, worship and time with people I feel somewhat familiar with. Lord, please bless me with a ride to church this week.

Yeah, yeah, crank it UP, again. Have a blessed day!
