Happy Easter everyone! Jesus has risen and our sins are forgiven! What a wonderful day I had a with family. I did something I couldn't do a year ago too, I jump-roped. I hope you all day a terrific day and will have a great week.

Thank you for all of your support.

Movies that were Books

Just like Twilight I am disappointed in the movie makers who made The Hunger Games. I don't know if anyone else felt this way, but I felt the movie was just a summary of the book (which was disappointing, I was looking for the details that the book had). It really made me upset with how they had Katniss buy the pin for her sister, when it was given to Katniss by the mayor's daughter in the book. It seems that if I want the movies made right I will just have to become a film maker, or at least be the one to write the screenplays.

Now after finishing The Hunger Games series I am reading "The Lucky One," which is also being made into a movie...lol...maybe I should stay away from the movies that I have read as books to avoid disappointment.

Books

I finally found a good book to read. The Hunger Games. The idea behind the whole book is gruesome, but the way in which the main character handles the situation makes the book not as dark. Having read the first two books within a week I decided to by the Nook Tablet. I thought I would fall in love with it and love using it to read and look things up on the internet, but I was wrong. Turns out I miss using the actual book; I don't like looking at a screen all the time. I guess I am old fashioned in that way.

Three Months Out

Three months ago today my father and sister were both on the operating table, as was I, while my mom waited patiently in the waiting room with family and friends. Today I am doing well; I walk almost 2 miles the majority of the week, and I have been working with a physical therapist to help improve my strength, endurance, and flexibility.

I want to thank everyone who has kept my family in their thoughts and prayers; God has truly been doing a great work in our lives.

OH, I have graduated to seeing the doctor only every other week instead of the original twice a week and then once a week. I am on the fast track to full recovery. : )
