Change in plans! The surgeon cancelled his trip. All tests are go.
Surgery is now planned for tomorrow morning.
Will be transferring soon out of ICU to a regular room.
The chaplain stopped in for another prayer. Looks like we’re ready to go.
Pulse rate coming down. Prayers up!

PRAISE GOD!
Thank you, Lord!
God bless you, dearest Jim!
Thank you ALL for your prayers, and please continue praying!
Surgery for Jim tomorrow morning. We'll let y'all know as soon as Jim lets us know!
Our FReepathon got off to a great start yesterday with 18 Donations of $100 or more and 5 New Monthly Donors, including 1 New $1-A-Day Donor! I mention these Donations because of our Campaigns: Our 300 Club and Our New Monthly Donor Campaign, which I'll describe below.
Every quarter, FReeper I_be_tc, challenges 300 FReepers to match her $100 donation. Yesterday, I kicked-off I_be_tc's $100 challenge with my $100 donation to get things started, so please join me, if you possible can!
It was a big stretch for me, but I want to try to get this FReepathon done quickly for Jim's sake, and I know y'all do, too.
If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note (in Jim's temporary absence) and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club Roster! Now, please don't be shy about adding your name. We know you're humble, but seeing your names on the Roster often times inspires others to join you!
Our New Monthly Donor Campaign got off to a great start, too! We conduct this campaign because reliable Monthly Donations are an ideal way to support Free Republic. We already have 3 Very Generous FReeper Sponsors, Tijeras_Slim, upchuck and "somebody", for this Quarter's NMD Campaign! All three FReepers are donating $10.00 for each New Monthly Donor who signs up, so please consider Donating Monthly, if you can reliably do so! $15 a month is 50 cents a day. Please ask yourselves, "what is FR worth to you?"
Whether your donation is $5, $10, $20, $50 or $100 or more, it all helps keep FR alive and will be sincerely and truly appreciated!!
In closing, I know times are tough, unconscionably tough, but for Jim's sake, I'm asking you all to please dig deep and to please dig deep right away or as soon as you possibly can, so that Jim can spend as much time as he needs to recover after his successful surgery, instead of spending 2 months fundraising.
In Jim's temporary absence, Just Amy, (whom you all know and adore) is posting the incoming. She is Jim's life-long, close friend and also his business partner and FR's bookkeeper. So please, let's get those donations coming in! However, with Jim in his own room tonight, we might see him here again too!
We Can Do This, provided We ALL pitch in right away. Please always remember, $25 keeps FR ALIVE!!

Our rain hasn’t hit yet. I have over 50 bulbs I have to plant before it does rain.
We have a small shrub that we have to plant this week end. Other than that, as much weeding as I can bear and clean up, I’m not doing anything outdoors. It’s been a long year and a half, and I’m tired.
Yep. The public will probably also be angry with the enemedia for not reporting it or not reporting fairly.
I work with some very liberal people and they were upset that the Tea party rallys in DC and elsewhere were ignored by the media after I showed them my pictures.
“If you’re workin’ here and in the middle a’ the day you just stopped and said, ‘You know what? I wanna get somethin’, but I don’t know – I don’t know exactly what I’m gonna get, but I’m just gonna stop workin’ until I get somethin’;
I’m gonna shut down the whole plant until I get somethin’”~Barack Obama

Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.
Find a house with a big yard. Maybe a pond. Something picturesque.
Improvise. Put porta-potties on the driveway if necessary.
Hold the wedding at dusk there anyway.
Or at sunrise.
It’s private.
This is illegal.
Or...at church.
I really believe that the lib/commies aren’t getting away with this this time. Watch for them to do something drastic and desperate.
Maybe there is hope.

I’m not sure what the access is. It may go through federal land. But, yea, civil disobedience is needed in these cases.
I wonder how many ‘primaries’ she held.
My guess is is she held any very few attended.
Howdy everyone! Checking in! All is well.
