Sorry for me not being around much.............

[Teresa Heilevang]

Just popping in to chat a bit and tell you all that I miss you. It has been so crazy this summer that I feel like I have had no time to even stop and do anything. TT calls often and I exchange text with Shooter and his wife Jody..talk on the phone to Blackwolfe..and deepwater and Haz hollers at me on occasion.. but dang it.. I miss cracking the whip at all of you..  
Right now and for the next few weeks I am living back in my old house ( which I forgot how big it is to maintain) with my ex husband ( and still wonderful friend, Mark)
***And yes.. Marshal is the most tolerant, patient loving kind husband in the whole world*** Definetely a keeper.. and I believe I"ll do that!".. LOL

 Mark has had a full knee replacement on his right leg..and I am here being what I call "Nurse Hatchett".. . so I am not home where I do actually have my big computer and kinda sorta keep an eye on you hooligans. I have my laptop , but am so busy I don't get a chance to get on it much.  I haven't been on hardly at all since daddy died.. as I've been also busy with Mama and family and just what seems to be a plate that is piled high with things that have to be taken care of by me.

 Now... Mark has had this first leg done.( has to have the other knee replaced as soon as he heals from this one.)   but he keeps me hopping with therapy ( which I am doing all of it instead of us having to drive 90 miles to Wichita 4 times a week. ) and 4X a day exercise on his knee and up from bed and and down to bed and in the chair and out of the chair and cooking meals, and cleaning, and laundry.. and mowing this huge yard and still doing bookwork for 5 entity's..  ..etc..  ( have I whined enough that you feel a teeny bit sorry for me?? huh?? have I?)  
 I am going to need a month vacation just to rest up when this is over..
Kjell is taking care of everything at our house ( which is just 4 blocks away) and is being a jewel. I could never find a more tolerant, patient and good man in the whole world ..and I publically thank him..  

I DO get to go to Gunsite 3rd week of August and go through one of their 3 day training courses.. I'm nervous about it but excited to learn.
Anyway.. just wanted to let you know why I wasn't in here harassing you all ..Hopefully in a few months I will be back to some semblance of normalcy..( scratch that.. its a lie.. I will never be or do anything normal)  
but maybe I will be back in here on more of a "normal" basis...
and I'll try to pop in every now and then between all my slave hours..   Now its time for me to get to bed. 2:00 is the next medication time and rotation of the knee.. Only takes about 10 minutes..but interrupted sleep every 3-4 hrs at night is hateful! (((Sorry.. more whining..)))  

Actually I have a wonderful outlook and generally I'm in good spirits with smiles.. and I don't mind doing all that I do at all. Just glad I am here and can do it.  and just hope his knee heals perfect and he is without pain.
Have a good remaining summer everyone and BEHAVE in here!!

Missed you bunches!  I guess we'll just have to cope until you get back.

We miss you around here... that's for sure. We DO tend to just send ourselves to the corner though, so you're still very effective at ridin' herd.
Your recent life-load has been heavy and it's admirable how you push ahead. We'll be here waiting.

Not to contradict Jay, but your lifeload is a gift from God - it is called a real life of helping, of service to Him and others. You continue to be a blessing for your family, and - whining aside  - a blessing and example to the rest of us as well.

God bless you Teresa, the last time I called you were at the hospital waiting for info for Mark, and as impeccable as my timing always is, they called you within 30 seconds of me calling you, so go's life, good luck to Mark on his recovery. He has a good therapist.
