Hello July! I love you July. I love July 4th! I look forward to this weekend filled with good food, fireworks, laughter and family. I give thanks for my health, for the opportunities to improve life and grateful for the love of family.
Our year is half over. Although, I have accomplished some goals, the big rocks are out of the jar and nothing has been done. My foot is a big problem and must be improved. Will that improvement happen in Billings or in Tennessee?
Am I happy and healthy today? Yes and no. I scheduled an appointment with a highly recommended surgeon for an additional opinion regarding my foot. The acquired deformity gets worse each day.
My appointment with the surgeon is Tuesday, July 7th. His opinion will be the third one. It may confirm what two other Doctors have said and lead me back to the South for the surgery. It may contain a message of hope and success here.
I have an appointment scheduled at Duke in North Carolina for August 2nd. The happy news is I am being proactive to search for help! God tells us to seek and we shall find.
Where would I stay if I have surgery here? I want to return to full time in Real Estate. Some important choices are visible.
There is an apartment in Billings that would be a perfect recovery space. It is new, affordable,and 7 minutes from my son’s home. I stopped by there today and let the manager know it will be next Wednesday when I can confirm or decline her offer.
Preparing to Go Home to Tennessee
Next, I completed an online class for Real Estate in Tennessee. In the month of June I did 15 continuing education hours and will do 6 more in the next week. My heart beats with Joy when I think of being home in Tennessee and helping others find home.
One More Incident for today
With scattered thoughts stretching from the East to the West, I drove toward my Sons house. On the way, I received a call from Kentucky. My Brother is listed in critical care in the University of Kentucky Medical Center.
He has stage 4 Cancer. I want to see him! The onset appeared to be sudden and the cancer is very aggressive.
This week will continue to be busy. Several things must be completed within the next two weeks in preparation for the trip to Tennessee or staying here. Prayers for my brother and the desire to see him tops the list.
Finally The Day’s Activities End…
The day wasn’t over. I stopped at the Wells Fargo ATM and it said: “You haven’t finished your last transaction, would you like to continue?” I pushed No…and the previous customers card popped half way out. I waited..and the ATM read: Please remove your card or it will return to the ATM in 20 seconds. I waited and the ATM sucked it up!
I had almost finished my transaction when a cool looking guy on a motorcycle whirled up beside my car. I asked him if he had visited this ATM in the last few minutes. He was the Owner of that Card! He laughed and said, no problem I will come by tomorrow and get another one.
