I had another Ashley day today!  And her boyfriend Miles came with us.  A double blessing!

We mailed some letters including my daily letter to Jesse first thing this morning.  I’d appreciate it if you’d drop him a note of encouragement too.  He’s at Jesse Cummins, ID 9935 7554, Gwinnett County Detention, 2900 University Parkway, Lawrenceville, GA 30043.  Keep praying for him.  He needs a miracle and God is still in the miracle working business!

We went by FBC Doraville to check on the mail and make sure everything is ok at the office.

Then over to Peachford Hospital.  I’m trying to arrange it so he can be transferred over to their hospital from the detention center.  I need to figure out how much our insurance will cover this sort of situation.  I’m always scared that they’re going to pump him full of drugs and not really help him with his problem.  If he gets in there we can only see him four times a week for an hour each time, which I think is kind of weird.  Pray for that situation too.

We stopped by Guitar Center to pick up a Djembe for our church partners at Stone Mill church.  It’s just a small gift to help them with their ministry.  Lester Ruiz’ wife Nadia helps with the music and she’s been playing different percussion instruments.  A djembe is sort of like a small conga.  It’s got a great tone and I believe it will be used to give God glory!

I ran four miles today.  That’s the first time I’ve run in about 2 weeks since my burns and my cold.  My left knee hurts now.  That’s pretty normal for me when I’ve laid off exercise and jump straight back in.  I’ve lost about 15 pounds since the fire.  Not a great way to diet, but seems to be pretty effective.  Grief and pain is a powerful combination.

This evening we had some fun family time with the Lamb family.  I enjoyed shooting pool with Edwin and his son Kevin.  Kathy played cards with Debbie and the daughters and daughter in law.  She seemed like she had a good time.

I just caught up on my email and my blog.  Then I’ll watch the last of an episode of House with Kathy before I crash out.

We hope to be able to see Jesse tomorrow.  Please pray that that will be possible.

Sure love you guys!
