Today, being the day off, I had the opportunity to mow our lawn, which, shouldn't even have the honor of being called a yard.  It really was a jungle.  Like...really!  I'm saying, like, I actually chased a lion out with a rake in the middle of it.  Seriously....our yard was a jungle.  The grass was mostly at my knees, but pieces to my waste.  This was some tall grass.  Our house is the one in Little Havannah that people walk by really fast because they are scared.  So today, I mowed it...with a weed-eater only!  It looks so good now...it really is an accomplishment.  

This was the only ounce of excitement around the house or my life today, as nothing else was scheduled.

During the evening, I went to the hospital for a few hours to be with JJ until the nurse finally came in around 8 o'clock with the news we had been praying for.  It was finally time to go back home and be a "family" again!  It seems kinda cheesy to be this excited about finally being all back together under a roof, but when living in a community, you care for others and you quickly become attached.  It just isn't the same without one of the members in the house.  Moral is back to normal around the DOOR Dwell house.  Thanks for the prayers and please continue to remember us as we all start our jobs on monday and start to experience the real thing!

  1. You have to be careful when your grass gets that high. You never know if there are snakes running around in there. And since you are in Florida they could have something worse out there like 'gators. Glad that JJ is back in the house.

  2. You could tell people that there is an endangered species of grass in the yard.
