Home Sweet Home

Mark is being discharged from the hospital this morning. The Drs. and nursing staff have been excellent. As always the noise level has been loud so Mark is pretty tired. The good news is we can take care of that at home.

Whatever experience I go through in life I learn or relearn important truths for myself. Never take your family or friends for granted. I seriously have no idea how people get through the hard times without God and supportive family and friends. Thank you so much for your good wishes and prayer, which we still need to get through the healing process. We love you all and look forward to seeing you soon.





Goodbye to fourth floor.




Aren't they the cutest?

God Bless

He's Awake

So day two at Sutter Memorial Hospital.




This is the device that the Hospital is using to transport their postoperative patients from Recovery to ICU. Mark was too drugged up to enjoy the ride.





The floor where Mark now resides.





A room with a view.




Pedicure please?...




Yum-Yum. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner!!!


And here's our boy.

Mark is doing great this morning. He will be saying goodbye to ICU and hello to the telemetry unit on the fourth floor. We are continuing to pray for low to no pain and a speedy recovery.

Hugs and Kisses to you!

Healing Touch for Mark

I must say it was very comforting to walk into Sutter this morning and see the quilts on display, knowing they were made with loving and caring hearts and hands. So today is our big day of surgery. The Lord promises us he will never leave us or forsake us. That is my promise for today. It's so hard when your best friend, love of your life, and mate is going thru hard stuff. So the best comfort is our heavenly father, family and friends who love and encourage. Thank you.

Wake-Up

So we survived our shop hop. Numbers seemed to be down from last year but we sure had a good time. It's always such a treat to have the store full of happy customers and friends. But I must tell you I feel exhausted. I think shop hops just do that to you. When the alarm went off this morning in my sleep I kept saying "wake up, wake up," No way did I want to wake-up!

The store is full of great new fabric lines. Here's a few pics of some of our favorites.

So, on a personal note please remember to keep us in your prayers. Mark will be having major surgery this Thursday. We are praying for steady hands, wisdom, peace, strength, and a speedy recovery.

God Bless,

Party on the River

Well today was day one of River Run Shop Hop. We survived the hoards of quilters and had a splendid time while doing it. We served up sloppy joes (homemade by the way), chips, rice crispy treats, and water. Your waiter if you choose to come is one hunk of a man. Now of course there are prizes to be won when all is said and done. So please come, enjoy, have fun and of course we would be delighted if you choose to shop. Your tour guides for the day will be the MorningStar team of life guards.

Halloween and Fall!

The "Oroville Bus" made quite a showing. You go girls!!! We hope to see ya'll in Paradise Friday or Saturday from 9 - 7.

God Bless,

Marsha

Insomnia

So what do you do when you can't sleep? I usually think about my quilt shop and what new and different things we can do. So tonight I'm thinking about my husbands upcoming surgery and praying all will go well. I am confident that all will go well I just hope he won't have much pain. Last time he had surgery he had a reaction from his pain med passed out and broke His leg. We are praying that another broken bone is not in his future. We would be very thankful if you would remember Mark in your prayers. His surgery is Sept. 15. He will have his pancreas, liver, spleen, and gallbladder operated on. Whew!

I have been reminded so many times in the past few days that God has a perfect plan for our lives. We may not always like His plan but He will carry us and give us the strength we need to make it through the tough times. Thank you Jesus.

Here's some more Hawaii pictures.
