We have had a good week. Each day Phil seems to have gained a little, is stronger and speaking better. He's now transferring himself from the wheelchair to the chair without help. Makes me nervous, but wants to do as much as he can himself and I understand that.

We continue to add to our "home" in the garage. Phil is so proud of it, you just never know what will make a man happy. We now have a better TV and more seating space out there, so there's room for the whole family when the boys come.

Yesterday we went to Bell Buckle and enjoyed the beautiful scenery and weather. We had lunch from the Bell Buckle Cafe and ate out in the sun; it was just perfect.

Today was church with our friends at Estill Springs Nazarene, it was good to be there again.

We're thanking God for each day. Phil sits up at 5:30 AM and says "It's a beautiful day". And yes, it is.
