CALLING

I GOT A CALLING/VOLUNTEER JOB AT CHURCH TODAY! I WORK W/TARA COLLINS ON ACHIEVEMENT DAYS. TARA IS A CLOSE FRIEND WHO HAS LEARNED MY ASL, & R GIRLS, FAITH & JESS, R BEST FRIENDS. R HUSBANDS HOME TEACH EACH OTHER’S FAMILIES TOO!

Sept 6, 2005

I was prepared to appoligize for not writing here, but appearantly Jenny has been active in writing. As for her last entry, I want to clearify that “hitting” her muscle involved tapping the muscle to produce a response. Her daily wife beating occurs after the tapping. I am excited about her new movements on her left side. I feel that the best thing that I did was to keep exercising the left arm as much as the right- and always trying new things. Jenny works so hard in her therapies, so I am glad she has seen new movements.

Jenny gave me a compliment (I think) the other day that I did not know how to take. After a series of completed daily tasks, Jenny told me that of all the men she knows, I would make the best woman. I guess it does not help that I am a whiz at braiding hair, or that I know too much about scrapbooking, or that I plan activities and outfits around menstral periods (not mine- just in case anyone wondered). Yes, I know and do many more things that I wish not to incriminate myself with anymore. Perhaps this is a compliment, but I am feeling a bit demasculated since then. I’m thinking about just making Jenny wear ball caps rather than doing her hair in order to balance things out- but her hair just looks too cute when it is done up right. Oops, there I go again.

LEFT SIDE AGAIN

I STRAIGHTENED MY LT. ARM UP TODAY. I ONLY COULD DO IT BECAUSE MARK HIT THE MUSCLE 1ST. IF ONLY MY LT. SIDE FELT LIKE MY RT. WHEN IT MOVED-TINGLED LESS-IT WORRIES ME! MIND U, ALL EXERCISES I DO ON MY LT., I HAVE TO BE LYING DOWN OR THEY R MOTIONLESS.

DONATE TO HELP US FIGHT STROKE!!

Here’s a little something I was asked to post to this blog, so here goes:

I am Jenny?s sister, Melissa, and am participating in the LA Triathlon on September 11th, 2005 to honor Jenny and her accomplishments as well as to raise money to donate to the American Stroke Association. You can help by clicking on this link to donate to the cause: www.melissacondren.com/donate/

OK, everyone, time to step up to the table and pitch in!
