One day at a time...

Evan and I are doing better with every passing day. We are still saddened by the events of this past week but we know that God has a reason for everything. We are slowly taking it one day at a time and letting our hearts heal. I absolutely love that song...One Day at a Time. My mom and us girls used to sing it all the time.

I have a friend named Deidre who also has a blog. I wrote her and email letting her know what had happened. She wrote a poem for me and if you go to her blog you can read it. www.justawhisper.blogspot.com

I went to the doctor today to get some blood work done. They have to make sure my hcg levels are going down and/or gone. Evan and I are going to wait a while before even thinking about trying again. We both know that we can't put ourselves through the same heartache as we have experienced. Everything hit Evan harder on Monday because he had to tell his students what had happened. To my surprise many students actually cried. Some of these kids really love Evan.

My parents came over on Saturday and spent the night. They were here to pick up their rototiller. We had borrowed it in July to till up the back top yard. I told them if they wanted to have it back they needed to help us use it. I had forgotten how to start the darn thing. Evan and I are going to try and grow some vegetables. Here in Kearny the vegetables at the store are not very tasty and are very expensive. We need to till the ground one more time before we can start to plant. I haven't had a garden since I was in high school. We had a great garden. It had mustard and collared greens, okra, corn, yellow squash, and zucchini. I loved going into the garden to pick the vegetables and then cooking them for dinner. In high school since I didn't have an after school activity I did most of the cooking. I loved cooking. I miss having that time to myself to pick the vegetables fresh from the garden and then prepare them with the meal. I hope we can get the garden started before to long. At least that will give me something to keep my mind on.
