Kathy,

If you were here I would give you a big squeeze, and a cup of coffee which
I'm about to go down stairs now and start.

We want to hear all about your vacation and what you did.

We're so glad you are back so we can hear about the house.

Thanks for the love and prayers. I think the quick steps might be getting
better.

Just curious, though why does water make it worst? lol.

I'm praying for your Church situation and for your house project which I'm
so excited about.

They got the foundation for Dean's garage poured last Friday afternoon.
Neither Vernon nor I were able to be there because we were on a business
tech support call. lol. We didn't want to miss it, but we did.

We're trying to get the north side completely done so we can get the air
conditioner back installed and the attic fan in the attic. The weather is
not cooperating though. It might rain again this morning, then if it does
rain, they will not be able to work until this afternoon.

I'm praying for you, Kathy. You are loving! <squeeze> lol.

Love and Blessings,
Pat Ferguson
