Today is Saturday. I haven't written on here in a couple days. I haven't wanted to. I don't think I would be able to relax before and after surgery knowing that my clients didn't have their hair done! LOL:) So, I am working again on Monday morning to tie up some loose ends.

Mema is at a nursing home now. She is soon to be going to her party. The kids understand that Mema has a party to go to. In Heaven. Jesus hasn't quite finished all the decorations and the guests are being told she's coming. Her mommy and daddy are going to be there. God is almost ready. Meanwhile she is being comforted with medicine. She's agitated. She's not in her right mind and it wears her body out to have company, even us. So we have all said our goodbyes. We will miss her dearly. My mother and aunt have done an amazing job during this. How hard this must be.

I am nervous about surgery. Even still. So much is going through my mind. I am ready to get it over with though. I won't know surgery details until the day before (Tuesday). Meanwhile I have to go to the store and pack my bags.

Miracle. I don't know how to explain this. I want to expect a miracle. But what is a miracle? We are so human. I might not even recognize a miracle if I saw one or even experienced it. I will know when I get to my party one day. He'll explain everything. Meanwhile I am just going to ride, not really thinking about what tomorrow will bring. I think I am going to enjoy the ride, regardless.
