A few days ago, Capability Savage and I met for a quiet one - while we were in yonder hostelry, the bridge decided to the turn and allow a three masted sailing vessel up the Liffey. The light was awful, but I did the best I could with my phone.
In the meantime, I've been working away on my Dutch musketeer. This has been a slow process, particularly choosing colours that didn't look out of place, but also went well together. Slow, but steady I think is the watch word here.
To be honest, I haven't been up to much in the hobby line of late as Mrs Kinch is in hospital. We had hoped that she would be home the day before yesterday, but that sadly wasn't possible. She is being very well looked after and is receiving the best of care, unfortunately there have been some post surgery complications which we are hoping will clear themselves up in the next day or two.
Until then, all I do really is visit, hope and pray.

O Lord our God, Who by word alone did heal all diseases, Who did cure the kinswoman of Peter, You Who chastise with pity and heal according to Your goodness; Who are able to put aside every malady and infirmity, do You Yourself, the same Lord, grant aid to Your servant and cure her of every sickness of which she is grieved; lift her up from her bed of pain, and send down upon her Your great mercy, and if it be Your Will, give to her health and a complete recovery; for You are the Physician of our souls and bodies, and to You do we send up Glory: to Father, and to Son, and to Holy Spirit, both now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.
ReplyDeleteHope Mrs. K is on the road to recovery and home soon.
ReplyDeleteAs someone who recently spent 20 days in hospital after surgery (when 7 to 10 was considered normal), I very much sympathize with your dear bride.
ReplyDeleteOne of the things that did help however was the simple fact of my wife being able to visit me. Just knowing that she was there made a big deal of difference . . . so even if there isn't much conversation, your just being there for your lady wife will count for a lot.
My wishes and prayers for her quick and complete recovery are solidly in place . . . as I'm sure that yours are.
Best wishes,
-- Jeff
