It's a Good Day :-D

I woke up this morning for the first time in 17 months without pain or discomfort in my rear-end. I awoke an hour early and, after letting in a meowing cat from outdoors, I just lay in bed revelling in my pain-free euphoria.

I got notified that I'm getting a merit raise pay increase...1st one in five years.

My oldest son Frank, his wife and step-son came over last evening to show us ultra-sound pictures of the baby developing in Jeni's tummy. (My first genetic grandchild and my seventh grandchild all together...I love grandchildren...they're so much fun to tease :-D )

I get to spend time this afternoon with my granddaughter McKenzie.

I'm madly and passionately in love with my wife Kari. (We celebrate our 8th anniversary Oct. 26)

But most important of all, Kari loves me as much as I love her.

My life is good...even when I forget for a moment about all the blessings the Lord gives me.
