Bluebonnets on the way~ Lake House Retreat

TEXAS BLUEBONNETS! Nothing Better..........


Our Lake House Retreat. It is my favorite place to go and rest. AJ loves it too. We splurged and put fancy adjustable beds up there just like we have a home for AJ and I. Now we never want to go home. Red wine, moon, stars, peace and quite. God's beautiful nature.
Today is a good day, I am driving! Blood counts keep climbing, not going to do the whole chart thing, but here are the new numbers.

WBC 4/12 5.0, 4/14 7.6, 4/16 10.3, 4/19 9.0 (normal 4.5-10.5)
RBC 4.68 4.62 4.56 5.02 (normal 3.80-5.20)
HGB 14.1 13.7 13.5 15.1 (normal 12.0-16.0)
PLT 235 210 207 139 (normal 150-400)

As you can see, they continue to rise. These are amazing numbers for day 28, these are God’s numbers! Amen.

GVHD seems to be splinting hairs over here. Can’t quite decide, but knows that it is NOT full GVHD, it is still engrafting syndrome and they have to watch it. As far as I am concerned, I have claimed the victory and I don’t plan to be getting any more of that stuff. It can be wicked.

Went up to the lake a few weekends ago and the weather was beautiful on Saturday, not so much on Sunday but it was just great to get away. The flowers were beginning to bloom and AJ finally got to show me my Christmas gift?! Well he had to order it before the EOY, but it finally came, the NEV tax credit. Neighborhood Electric Vehicle! Basically, it is a 6 passenger golf cart. It can be driven on any road in Texas as long as the speed limit does not exceed 45 miles an hour. The only thing about the NEV that is my Christmas present is its color….RED! (he could have ordered blue his favorite color, but got RED for me~smart guy!)I do think it is fun, and it will be nice to run to the Happy Cooker this summer for pancakes! My goal is to sell it to someone in Horse Shoe Bay that really needs a cart….but maybe not…it is PRETTY CUTE!

AJ & I have always wanted a family get-a-way place.

God is good!
