\"Loose<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Excuse the ambiguous title, but it seems there are loose ends all over the place here at Finding direction, so I’m going to tie a few up.  Thanks to Ken<\/a> for the reminder.<\/p>\n

First, I already mentioned this but Hannah and Nathanael are fine after the fevers of the last week or two.  Shari was sick but is starting to feel better.  As for me… well, I’m supposed to take some drugs and talk to my doctor again in about 10 days.  So I’m making as much progress toward health as is possible at the moment (I’m even writing this lying in bed – a rare tip of the hat toward recovery for me).<\/p>\n

I mentioned Toby in the last audio post.  Marilyn (his wife) emailed from Houston on the 14th to say that he’s fine!  They’re playing with his meds a bit, but it sounds like he’s doing ok.  So praise the Lord and thank you for your prayers!<\/p>\n

We had a good visit with the Fry family<\/a> on Sunday.  In an effort to check out what’s going on in other parts of Mexico, we’ve visited with the Frys and the Williams<\/a>.  They were good visits, and we look forward to more, including a trip to Texcoco next week to visit the Smiths.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, we’re doing school – ours and the kids’.  And as always we appreciate your prayers for that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
