A Bounteous Afternoon

Wednesday, August 8 - Late afternoon:

The mailman brings a stack of get well cards.
Friends send me the CD set of the new Harry Potter.
UPS brings a gift box full of teas and cookies.
Dayton arrives home after his meetings with a bouquet of flowers, chai, and a small CD/MP3 player/radio. I can enjoy the flowers now, sip the chai tomorrow, and listen to Harry Potter & NPR in the comfort of my bed after surgery.

Truly I am blessed.

The mailman also brings the first of the official bills from the clinic. We've already received a flurry of paperwork from Blue Cross - "Your health care plan does not cover these services."

But we will make it through. Flowers, tea, good stories, and wonderful friends. Life is good.
