top of the evening, friends....
i hope that this blog entry finds you all well! things are good here because God is good every day!
the above picture is of the car that hit mary and me on friday the 13th. a combined minimum speed of approximately 66 mph does a significant amount of damage, as you can see.
well, my new truck came in and i couldn't be more pleased with it. i still need to get seat covers installed so the hounds can once again ride with me. they sure don't appreciate being left behind. mary, trish and i broke it in last weekend and took it down to hocking hills to have lunch with raejean and nancy. we all had a great time, and what a beautiful day it was for a drive - although COLD!
i'm still anxiously awaiting the next dr's appointment to see if i can bear weight on my leg or if i have to have additional surgery. my plan was to return to work 2/4...but we'll see.
there is a pretrial (the 3rd thus far) in early february in wheeling for our case. we both plan to attend. this will be the first one we've been able to be there for.
quote for the day:
"Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true."

Hi, Lisa.
A new truck, eh? That old beater would have fit in too well in SE Ohio. Now they'll think you are putting on airs! Glad to see you continuing to make progress.
Mike & Connie
Wow! You and Mary shouldn't have KICKED that loser's car so darned hard! Man... just shows how amazing it truly is that you are both still with us when you look at all the energy you both absorbed with your bodies in that crash... I know none of us will ever forget being at work that day and hearing the awful news. It sure got quiet around GHQ in a hurry... you could FEEL the prayers going up.
Even though it was sounding bad, I couldn't help but have a good feeling deep down that both of you would be all right and come back to be with the rest of your OSP buddies. You know, how you just instinctively "know" something will happen? That's how I felt when I heard the news. Glad that feeling was right.
And so glad the army of prayer warriors did their stuff! You two are both truly amazing!!!!
I sure hope the judge puts that horse's butt away for a while to keep him from hurting others at least! He has no business driving a vehicle!
Please keep us informed and let us know what you hear at your doc's appointment, o.k.?
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
