Thanks again for prayers for me and my family and friends and all of our pets. Please particularly pray for my sister's dog friend, Buddy, who is suffering with chronic pain that keeps getting worse. Please pray for him to heal, and especially that he will respond to the painkillers.

Please pray for my year to get better. Please pray that my husband's health will improve and that we will be able to replace his electric bike that someone stole from our porch. When he had his bike, it was easy for him to ride the 3 blocks down the hill to the convenience store and then back up. Now, even with my little bit of a balance problem remaining, I can walk better than he can, so yesterday I went to the store. Downhill was no problem, but I hope not to have to walk back up the hill too often.

I am grateful that I have mostly recovered from my major anger. There is still something wrong with my computer, but for now I am able to do my usual things. I have pretty much given up following politics, and now i am putting in time listening to music instead, which relieves a lot of my stress.
