I put Richard's picture on this morning. Richard has a very serious disc problem in his neck. He is going to be having surgery on the 27th. The doctor can't really fix it. All he can do is stabilize it so it hopefully won't get worse. Unfortunately he will still have a lot of pain. Please keep him in your prayers.

Diane will be seeing her surgeon tomorrow for her breast cancer. She will know about what is going on tomorrow. Please keep her in your prayers too.

This month is flying by. It seems all of the months go so quickly. Just 8 more days and I will be going to Ketchikan to visit David and Debby and family. I have only been to Ketchikan one other time. That was in May of 1995 when Clayton and I were first married. Years ago I did a lot of counted cross-stitch work. I only have one left now. It has Alaska in large letters in the middle and on the top and bottom it shows an image representing the different cities in Alaska.
When I bought the kit, the clerk said this particular kit was only sold in Alaska.

I haven't done any counted cross-stitch for awhile. I may see something I like when I am there. I have kind of lost my passion for crocheting lately. I have a lot of yarn and a pattern to make an afghan I thought I will like but haven't started it yet.
