Mark and I got up this morning and went to church. It was so nice to see all the familiar faces, along with the smiles and waves from the choir loft. I wish I could be up there with them! I sang along with some of the hymns - still a little breathless to do much. I stopped by Bob's and Bev's prayer station during communion. They said a beautiful prayer for healing on my behalf - it made me cry.
Mark, Matt, Courtney and I headed out for lunch and some shopping this afternoon. Believe it or not, Matt and Mark were the biggest purchasers today - and I didn't buy a thing!
Right now the kids are getting ready to head back to DesMoines. I spoke with Greg this morning, and he and his fraternity brothers were on their way home from Wisconsin. He sounded tired, but said it had been a good weekend. All are trying to get to their perspective homes in time for the Super Bowl this afternoon.
Tomorrow is the big day - back to work for half a day. My sub, Kathy, and I are going to do a transition day together - where she will be with me so we can go over all she has done in the last month and a half. I still have a little trepidation about my being able to do this - just the jitters I think. I know I can back off at any point, so this helps.
Enjoy the game this afternoon - or, if you are like me - the commercials! :-)

Jacque - I am so excited for your return tomorrow! Praise God for the blessings on your healing. Now you can focus your attention and energy on the battle against the cancer and we can enjoy your company again! I am so glad you are on your way back to well! You have had a busy few days, if you made it through that okay - I think you must be doing better. We'll see you in the morning!!! Oh - and I hope you'll plan on having lunch with us...don't make any other plans!
I cried this morning when I saw the back of your head in church. I was so glad to see you and be able to hug you! You look 'faboolus'! Good luck tomorrow. What a great day you will have!

Love you! Diane
Good luck on Monday. I'll be thinking about you and wishing you a superb day. I know the kids will be glad to see you and get caught up with you. They are lucky kids to have you and your substitute who both care so much about them.
I hope your Super Bowl team won.
