A note from MJ herself....


Today was a good day. Reasonable energy, cleaning my office - which is a herculean task. Things pile up faster than imaginable. My friend Kristin and I made it .78 miles on our “endurance walk”. She and brother Tim are my personal trainers who don’t seem to fall for any of my excuses for not walking. Guess I picked the right two. We were also pleased with today’s progress on the culinary front - we baked an apple pie to go with J’s delicious dinner.

As Jonathan mentioned in yesterday’s blog- we are so grateful for the Wheel Deliver meals, and (of course) those which have been dropped off by you. Unfortunately they won’t tell us who contributed. Thank you all, but please let us know so we can send you a note. Can’t promise a hand-written one, but we’d like to express our gratitude to you.

Here is a favor we need - if at all possible on such short notice. On this Wednesday August 18th we have a live webcast for our Navy client scheduled from 1-3pm. Trial Run partners Warren and Dave will be hosting and my role is very limited. We would greatly appreciate it if someone can host Zoe from about 10 or 10:30 to 3:15. She is leaving for New Hampshire later that afternoon but the webcast demands are so urgent that it would be easier for us if she was occupied elsewhere. I just don’t have consistent energy to entertain her while Jonathan is tied up with the webcast. Let us know if you can help.

Again, thanks for your prayers, all your kindnesses, the wonderful cards, comments and emails. They truly sustain us.

Much love

MJ

  3. How delightful to hear from Yourself! And what an impressive post.
    I'd sure love a taste of that pie! (Or more of Kristin's tres leches cake!)
    I know from Jonathan's post- I guess I read out of order - that you got Zoe situated; hooray! And good luck with the webcast!
    Keep up the great work!
    XOXOXO,
    Your cousin-in-awe,
    Susie

  4. Hey MJ,
    Happy to hear you've got your Walk ON!! Tackle the office one small section at a time, or 15 minutes at a time..it DOES require energy to create a more productive workspace, so take it EASY!!

    Sending you love, laughter and good vibes,

    Cheryl

    P.S. Thought you'd enjoy this pic of my dearly beloved Dools (who is now happily frolicking on a farm instead of being subjected to "dress up day", lol!)
