This is for tomorrow, Tuesday

TERRY
I have not been able to talk to Terry more than a few minutes today.  BUT I did talk to a social worker twice and the latest is this.  Her name was submitted to the acute rehab place at the U of MN.  They will know tomorrow morning if there is a bed.  IF so she will be moved early afternoon.  I will have my phone on airplane mode in the morning as I will be flying to Naples and that is the time of the day they usually make those decisions.  I gave them permission to move Terry if there is an opening and they can not get in touch with me in the morning.  I, for sure, will turn my phone on as soon as I land in FL.  I was relieved that they did say she needed an acute rehab center.  I could not think of a reason they would say no knowing that Terry has been bed ridden for 6+ weeks but one never knows. They called me to say they would make a decision later and then I got a call about an hour later with the OK.  
For those of you who may read about Terry daily I am sure there are many prayers.  AND I am thinking many of those prayers are said for me as well.  I just want to say "thank you" from the bottom of my being.  There are times I talk to Terry and I just feel so helpless and the feeling tends to linger for a while.  There are times Terry will say something and I just get twisted inside as I want so much to be of help and there is nothing I can do.  I know prayers are always needed and helpful but there is also that voice in the background that sometimes says, "Carmen from a worldly view you can just not do anything.  
Enough of that for now.  If I am not careful I can sometimes get into a"poor me" kind of attitude.  

I am finished for now and I may not be able to get on the blog again until Wednesday or later.  The next couple of days will be busy.  I know I need to bring that darn darn mask on the plane and I do NOT like it.

I experienced a bit of heaven today.  I actually plugged my table saw in and made TWO cuts on a piece of plywood.  The aroma was wonderful.  AND the cuts were clean as I put a piece of tape on the line that I was to cut.  I just did a little something to make the microwave in the kitchen a tiny bit nicer.  
That is all for now.
