It's Jake's 28th birthday today and I'm so glad he's here in Coeur d' Alene to celebrate with us. (But I feel just awful that I forgot your birthday, Jerry. I thought of it as I was going to sleep last night at 11:00 and I thought about sending you a message but it would have been late anyway because you're an hour ahead of us.) We are real party animals around here--we'll probably go out to dinner then have cake and ice cream at the Russell's. Jake is shopping for his own present right now as I'm typing this. Pretty lame.
Yesterday was full of fun and excitement. I went with Emily and her kids and Jake to Micky D's for lunch--Matthew's favorite--then we went to Target and finally to Costco. I had fun riding the little scooters at Target and Costco and I'm getting pretty good at not running over people. I only knocked over a couple of items and pushed a big display of t-shirts out of place.
My friend, Roxy, has been the librarian at Fernan forever and she is retiring from the school district so I went with my friend, Sherma, to a party. It was great to see so many Fernan friends and to enjoy Polli's beautiful yard. I didn't cough very much at all at the party!
Susan, Dr. T's assistant, was so encouraging and great to talk to on Monday. I didn't ask her anything concerning my treatment because I could tell right away that her job was to explain the results of the morning's blood tests. And they were great! They were expecting that I might have to have a blood transfusion or an I-V of magnesium, but my test results were good! When I see Dr. Tezcan on July 6 I can ask him questions about my treatment.
I am enjoying the beautiful sun and breeze today and I made myself a delicious salad for lunch with lettuce and radishes from my friend, Carol's, garden. Life is good.
Thank you for continuing to pray for me and for my family. This is not an easy time and I'm so thankful for having such a loving family and caring friends. I appreciate you all and thank God for your faithfulness. Love, Julie

Yeah!! I am thankful for the good report on the blood. :)
I will be praying on the 6th, that is Zoë's 2 month check up so it will be easy to remember. Love you aunt Julie!
I had a great Birthday! We trimmed trees and cleaned out garage and back areas. Very proud of our place at the moment. We are heading to the doctors this morning to see about what to do with or to Darci. Maybe nothing, maybe something big :( We will decide shortly after our consultation. The weather has been great and the pool is worth the pain of keeping it up. I havent made it out to the sutdio much, but I am keeping my chops up on the guitar.
Have a great week!
Jerry
