The Bussell Clan: July 2009

Nana smiled :)

We visited Nana and fed her last night. She was happy to see us! She is doing well.

I think she smiled bigger with III than me, that's ok, she smiled!

We also visited Aunt Mary, she was thrilled!

Here is the storm we drove through to get to Arcadia.

Here is the result of all of the rain! That is about 8" deep!

Brief view of my weekend

We went to the Ocala truck show this weekend! Or lack there of. I was not invited for the Sunday event, way too much excitement on Saturday. My big brothers wouldn't let me go!

Michael's Promotion to Lieutenant

Hey Michael you need to come in here!

Wow, why are all of the white shirts here? "I did not do it, honest!"

Mike, sorry we have a problem, you can not be promoted until the new chief comes in.

That's fine Chief, can I have a glass of tea? Sure Mike not a problem.

So why is Chief Suarez here?

Hi Mike, how are you?

I am great Chief and you?

You can not have your uniform now but maybe this will do until later, your badge. Gee thanks Chief, yes that will be great!

Ok Mike, enough, congratulations you can be a lieutenant. Thanks chief!

Thank you too Chief Suarez!

And again at a different angle.

And thank you too Chief Jane!

Chief Dezzi so glad to see you too!

Congratulations honey hope you enjoy your new blanket!

Omaw Bussell

Please continue to pray for Omaw as she was nauseated all day yesterday, which means no pain meds which = no pain relief. For those of you who may not know she had a total knee replacement last Monday, June 29, 2009. Her thigh is also swollen. Yes, they called the doctor which said it is ok if there are no sore spots, that is to be expected. She is progressing well and the PT guy is happy with her progress. Doctors visit on Wednesday. Stay tuned for an update.
