I've Got Mail And A Health Update

It's funny how some things in life never change.
I am 38 almost 29, and I still get excited when I receive a package in the mail.
Thursday, Matthew brought the mail in (since I am unable to even walk to the mailbox like a normal person right now), and he was carrying a BOX!



And that BOX had my name on it!

I was very thrilled inside!

I saw on the box that it was from Yvette.

Yvette is one of my blogging buddies. Her posts always make me laugh out loud. She has an incredible sense of humor. If you have not met Yvette, then you must do so immediately. As a matter of fact, click here to read about a recent family meal at her home; you will love it.

So, back to my BOX.....Once I ripped it open, I saw that there was a note inside.
Take a look.



Yvette has the best sense of humor. She knows I hate how I feel about frogs, so when I saw this "hoppy" note, I knew that she was up to something funny.

Before I left for my trip, she did a "Goodbye" post to me. Click here to see it. Then when I returned, she did a "Welcome Back" post for me. Click here to see it.

If you looked at both of these posts I just told you about, then you would have definitely noticed a THEME.....

A FROG THEME!

So back to my BOX!

I removed all of the newspaper from the BOX to find out what she had sent me.

Imagine my surprise and laughter as I saw this.....



I loved it!

Of course these frogs are safe I think. I am not afraid of them hardly at all. I don't have to worry very much about accidentally peeing using the bathroom on them; they can't jump across the room and scare me to death, I hope. They can just sit there and look disgusting cute, and hold my candy and my drinks.

Yvette, thank you, friend. You absolutely made my day.
You are a treasure; you made me feel so special with your thoughtfulness.

Last but not least, I wanted to thank all of you for your prayers for me.
I found out yesterday that I have degenerative arthritis of the spine, and the disc between L4 and L5 has popped out. The doctor has given me more medicine to help with the swelling and muscle cramps, and he is sending me to a physiotherapist (I think that is how you spell it) next week. They will fit me with some kind of Lumbar Traction device to wear at home for about a month. Then I go back to see the doctor in three weeks. His hope is that this treatment will work....if not, he said he would have to send me to a neurosurgeon.
I'm obviously going to pray for the treatment to work.
Anyway, thanks again for all of your prayers; I appreciate each of you so much.
God Bless,
Amy:)
