The past few days have been great ones for Karen.  On Saturday she had a visit from the former neighbors across the street (Priscilla & Dave) and was emotional at first then very happy to see them.  They provided Karen the encouragement she needed at that moment.  The potted flowers they brought were beautiful and were the icing on the cake.  On Sunday Anne came by with delicious food from the Mecca Restaurant near her home in Pittsburg.  Karen was able to enjoy taquitos and guacamoto.  That's right she asked for guacamoto and no hot chipoto sauce for her taquitios. I think she has been watching way too much "..Ninja..." on the G4 channel or she is learning the Japanese that is spoken on the show.  Either way, it was a great laugh for us.  She let out the biggest belly laugh once she realized what she had said.  As for today she full of energy and hungry, kinda took on her "bossy in control" attitude, which has me jumping to all of her demands. LOL.  Her nephew Jeff stopped by today on his way back to Utah.  Again she enjoyed the time spent with him.  She received another hilarious card from Joanne, which had us all in stitches.  Joanne has the best sense of picking a card and adding to the verses or theme of the card.  Each one received is a bright spot and forever cherished.  Thanks to all for your continued prayers and thoughts.  Keep the comments coming on the blog, Karen treasures all of them.  XOXO :o)
