I just wanted everyone to know that Sierra has now moved to University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond. Rick, Johnathan and I moved her into the dorm Saturday the 9th. Classes start the 18th. She will be majoring in criminal justice. Not sure where she will go with it but at least it is a start. Please keep her in your prayers. Her phone number is 580-591-2106.

For My Dad
I have been slowly adding songs to our playlist. I have received a few requests from Venius and Uncle Russell. (THANK YOU!) I also added a song that represents each of the adventure days we have had. Plus a few I just think are good ones to have on.
Today I added one in honor of my dad. It is one of his favorites, "I Love You Too" by Tom T. Hall. My kids think it is funny and talk about Grandpa's favorite every time we hear it.
So, just for fun. What do you love? This is going to require participation. Leave you loves in the comment section below by clicking on the comments below. You can read everyone else's there too.

Kenneth Update 7/26/2008
Hi Ho Love Ones!!
Pop is out of the hospital & at home now. Talked to him this am when I went over & took them either supper or lunch, when ever they choose to eat it and ran some errands for them. Saw his leg, the area stretches from his ankle almost to his knee. It is a very dusky bluish red, the knot is still very present in the back (doc seems to think swollen lymph node from the infection). Now they are saying that they don't know what has caused this, not for sure it was the Round Up. He still has pain when walking but not so much that he can't walk which was the story for the last week. He goes back to doc on Tuesday, will let you all know more than. Mom is fine but very tired. Everyone else doing fine.
Love ya,
Lisa

Prayer Request for Kenneth and Update
I want to apologize for not putting this on sooner. I thought I had posted it but guess I never did. Here is what Aunt Lisa wrote last Friday, then an update from today.
From Lisa, July 18
Well Loved Ones, here is another quick update on the happenings in Marlow town. Seems that Kenneth hadn't been real truthful w/me about feeling ok. Right after I sent out the last email mom started telling about a spot on Pop's foot that looked almost like a spider bite but not really. Was blood red and almost went completely around his ankle. Not an open wound but it really itched & hurt a lot. Advised dear old Pop to go to the doctor Monday. He declined. Oh by the way did I mention his toes also had a bluish cast to them (he is a diabetic!!). He wasn't going to let me bully him around like mom lets me!! So finally Tuesday night I gave him the choice of seeking his own medical care or I was calling his sons, all 3 of them. It worked, he went to the doctor on Wednesday, they put him on a very, very strong antibiotic and told him to come back this am. The doc seemed to think that it may have had something to do with the Round-Up that Pop had sprayed on the yard, chemical burn. Anyway needless to say it was worse this am even with the anitibiotics so guess who is in the hospital!! Yep, already told him that "I told you so". He will be in Grady Memorial in Chickasha for the next 3 to 4 days on very strong IV antibiotics & has been diagnosed with severe cellulitis for now. I am sure there will be more diagnosis' added. So put Pop on the prayer list and call him if you can.
Love to you all,
Lisa
Update: July 24
Hello Loved Ones,
Just a quick update on Pop, he is still in the hospital, they have now found a lump on the back of his leg in the calf area, about 2" or 3" long & the doctor is uneasy about it. He has decided to keep him at least another day. Pop was really disappointed b/c he had been told he could go home today. He walked yesterday for the 1st time on his leg (had to use a walker) and was able to go down the hall to the nurses station, which is a good thing. Mom has been staying every other night due to gas prices & she is really tired & worn out from it all.
Aunt Martha has a colonoscopy this Friday, will let you all know the results when I do and then has also scheduled herself for cataract surgery next month.
I am having more good days than bad. My appt w/the specialist is in October.
Well think I have caught you all up to date on everything that I know which isn't a lot.
Love to you all,
Lisa
