Kindnesses During Recuperation

If there's one thing good about surgery, it's being able to enjoy the kindness of others during the recuperation process. We had friends and neighbors bringing in delicious dinners every night for a week--except Sunday when Glen fixed us his delicious trademark roast beef dinner. Just wish I'd taken pictures of all the meals and everyone who brought them.


I even got spoiled during a few of the days when people would bring in lunch. Kathy and Roger Jacketta bought food from Paradise Bakery (aaaahhhh, always brings back fond memories of Benjamin working there...) and stayed to eat it with me.


Mom and Dad came out one day to fix me lunch and eat it with me and stayed to visit for a while.



My Activity Day girls made me a cute poster and some cookies.


G&K Services sent this beautiful bouquet of flowers. I asked Glen if he was the one who told someone to send them to me and he said NO! G&K just barely sent me flowers a couple of months ago when I had my heart procedure and that was plenty!


Good thing the HR person at work has a little bit more of a compassionate spirit about him than my husband apparently does because I have enjoyed these beautiful flowers for the whole 2 weeks now since surgery. Thanks to everyone at G&K (except my husband, I guess...) for sending me these beautiful flowers. I LOVE THEM!!

All kidding aside, I want to thank my wonderful husband for taking good care of me during both of my recovery periods. Thanks, Glen. I LOVE YOU!!

Happy Birthday to Nani!

Happy Birthday to Luke

Have a great birthday and keep smiling. We love you!!!

Should a Wife Be Worried...?

...when her husband comes home from work carrying all his personal belongings from his office in a cardboard box?



Fortunately, he had a good reason to be doing so. They have begun construction on the remodel job at G&K Services and he brought those things home for safekeeping until his new office is finished. WHEW!! In the movies this scenario means a definite loss of a job.

We have been blessed that during these tough economic times, Glen has kept his job and his location has been doing extremely well. And just think, if Glen quit working for G&K, we might have to change the name of our blog because I like the dual meaning--his job and us. I really like that he works for a company with our initials.
