Rainy day

Good Morning Friends, All is well so far today. Erin had a good day yesterday until bedtime and then she returned her pills to the bucket! You know what I mean? Boo nausea!! So we are spending today hanging out like yesterday. Good job on the peer pressure though, Erin did walk on the treadmill for a bit last night. She frowned the whole time, but she did it. I really couldn't tell if she was walking like an Egyptian though. No hand movements anyway. Let's hope she walks on it again today. She really looks forward to hearing from you all on the blog, e-mail, or facebook. So, keep up the encouraging words. Thanks and God bless you for the prayers!! love, janet

"But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord's love is with those who fear him. and his righteousness with their children's children - with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts." Psalm 103:17-18

I love this verse because it reminds me of the heritage of faith we have from our families. Praising God for obedient parents and grandparents who taught us how to love God. Without our hope is Jesus, how would we bear this time of trouble?

Erin, I have found that if I call my kids while I am on the treadmill they will sometimes get on theirs at the same tiem and we can all have fun together :). I try to get on the treadmill everynight after work. Maybe we can talk on the cell and I can push you, and you can push me past my "I'm tired from working all day" excuse. Keep up the good work, we all have faith in you. We all know you are a tough cookie.

I think the next thing on your list of things to get, now that you got the cable, should be a wii. Aunt Janet, I think Erin would smile a little more and frown a little less if she was getting her walking/exercise in with a wii instead of the treadmill. :-)

Erin, you go girl on the treadmill!!! So proud of you. I think the wii is a good idea too : )

Is the treadmill facing a TV? This is a must. You can then combine the cable exploring with the walking. Otherwise, treading is so boring, fatigued or not! You could plan to walk one episode of Friends. If you need a loaner TV for your treadmill area, just let me know. I mean it!

Hi Erin,

I read the blog everyday for updates, and continually keep you in my prayers. I know that people always say this, but God never gives us more than we can handle. Waiting on the Lord is what gives you strength. Keep hanging on.

Hi, Erin,
I think it's just fine that you frown on the treadmill. that seems to me to be a VERY normal response. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen anyone smile or laugh or toss their heads back in joyful ecstasy on a treadmill. so you go, girl, keep on truckin', and frownin'.
I remain, faithfully, your Aunt JoEllen's bFF from high school, Linda

Treadmills. Bah, humbug. But it is a fact of my life that I must walk to stay fit and sometimes that includes the stinking treadmill. But it really helps me to watch a movie or especially "What Not to Wear."

Never tried walking like an Egyptian... I'm too uncoordinated and would probably break a leg.

We pray for you (and your donor) every night!!

walking on the treadmill like and Egyptian....you could be starting a new fad! Kinda cool. Now I am wondering how your mom is going to incorporate that into the next Christmas poem? Praying everyday for you Erin!!

Love, The Stahls
