Julie and Greg

"Yet those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength: they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary."

Finally wrote it...

This evening I finally wrote my official retirement letter to the school district. It isn't a surprise to them of course, but writing the letter was a formality I had to take care of and I've been procrastinating for several months. I've enjoyed many years of teaching music for the Coeur d' Alene School District and it's still hard to think that I'm really not going back.

Yesterday was a long day of chemo. But I had my favorite nurse and I had my new bag that Kathy made filled with lots of things to occupy my time. My nurse gave me the option of having a good chair or a little room with a hospital bed...I chose the bed and it was so comfortable!

It's been very quiet today. No chemo, no company. But Greg surprised me and came home to eat lunch! And I feel pretty good, just tired.

Thank you for your friendship and prayers. I love reading the comments you write. You are so encouraging to me. Love, Julie

Oh, Julie, I am praying for you today! I am hanging out with Zoë and there isn't much else going on. I wish we lived closer. :-) I would pop over to watch a movie with you. Hopefully I will be able to see you this summer. :-)
