ALL KINDS OF STUFF HAPPENING

Denis has been recuperating from the flu and has recovered nicely. Thankfully, I avoided catching it by boosting my immune system and getting plenty of sleep.  I've been unable to walk my 10,000 steps a day because of heel pain. Then Denis had a nasty flareup of arthritis in his wrist which took another three days to go away.  January 2015 was not a very fun month for us especially when you top it off with Denis' losing his mom.

We did catch up with friends Hilton and Karen and Al and Wendy which was nice.  Watched the Super Bowl with Hilton, a Seattle fan.  I'm a Pats fan and was happy with the last few minutes of the game.

Feeling much better, it was time for our annual detox.  We're on our 4th day of a 8-day cleanse and looking forward to a nice bowl of rice today.  We like to detox in California because of all the mineral springs located in this area.  I lucked out and found a chiropractor adjustment with two massage sessions on Groupon for $76 for the two of us.  Great deal.  I also found a Groupon for a 30-minute foot detox for $10 each and we're going there today.

I forgot to tell you all that we're going on a tour with our friends Kurt and Diane to the Holy Land. This was a spur of the moment decision because our friends had a cancellation and a spot became available.  It's funny how things happen because I was just reading Messages from the Blessed Virgin Mary by Yasuaki Kikutani about his pilgrimage to the places where Mary was reported seen and was telling Denis how interesting it would be to visit and the next thing we know, we're going.  We're very excited about this trip and need your prayers that we'll be safe in those troubled areas.  I'm not superstitious but we are leaving on Friday the 13th.

I won't be posting on my blog while we are in Israel but will certainly share when we return.

Thanks for stopping in to say hi.
