Indeed, so much damage can be done in just a split second.😯 Falls on ice are especially scary.<br /><br />Elizabeth George's books are excellent, I agree. One thing I really appreciate is that there is very little of her own opinion in there. Just good solid Bible teaching.Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-90913865763704314932018-03-14T19:20:27.808-04:002018-03-14T19:20:27.808-04:00Thank you, Linda -- both for your visit and for th...Thank you, Linda -- both for your visit and for the encouragement! I hope that the book is a blessing to your friend. I've worked through the study several times and also did that study with my ladies' Sunday School class.

I'm usually so careful on ice, but this time I took a chance. Think I wasn't worrying about it since the car was right there.<br /><br />Yes, my dieting advice should be helpful. I don't linger over a meal, that's for sure! I could eat quite comfortably in the recliner, but I just refuse to go that route.<br /><br />Thanks so much for your prayers. They are felt and appreciated!😊Mrs.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00392321745556290343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-66747299406202010232018-03-14T12:04:33.161-04:002018-03-14T12:04:33.161-04:00Thanks, Sandy!

Perhaps this offers a bit of encouragement: I saw your photo of Elizabeth George's book and have ordered it from Amazon for a friend who is also recovering from a bad fall. So...your difficult experience may help someone in Kansas who is going through a similar trial! Will look forward to visiting your lovely blog again soon.

When I broke my ankle a few years ago, and had enforced inactivity for a few months, I found it to be a time of great blessing, doing many of the things you are doing now, that otherwise got neglected. I will pray it works that way for you, too.jgoltermann77https://www.blogger.com/profile/07115053491272379495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15265988.post-49930434660518839612018-03-13T21:10:38.527-04:002018-03-13T21:10:38.527-04:00Prayers lifted!!
