Oh those achs and pains

I'm currently battling the back spasms. I get them Oh once a year or so. Any way I'm on the mend but it occurred to me that I haven't kept up my blogging. So here's whats been happening. Susan has had some good news about her career she really has a heart for these folks who struggle with mental health issues and is currently taking some counseling courses to help her in this endeavor.
It really has been a god directed path. She has been struggling with the new computer medication program at the Hospital to the point that she handed in her resignation as a part time nurse. The hospital had to close down the Psych ward last year because of the lack of Drs to staff it. They have recently hired a Dr. so the 20 bed facility is going to reopen. Susan's heart has always been in helping these patient. So the very day the she handed in her resignation the head nurse ask her if she would like to be her part time person. What a God thing here she went for discouragement to a feeling of belonging in just one day. So she in in the process of getting some further training to prepare her for this new challenge.
Me I've been asked to help lead a Great Banquet team this March so for the past 8 weeks I been meeting one night a week with the rest of the team in preparation for this upcoming week end retreat. As well as leading a small group at our Men's fraternity. This is a weekly gathering of about 18 men in our church and community on the Quest for Authentic Manhood.
Plus going back to the prison for a monthly reunion wiht those guys. So life is busy and fulfilling with family and friends. I have to go now but I'll be back.
