FESTIVAL TIME

September 15, 2008

The 40th Annual Bluegrass Festival was a lot of fun for all who attended. There were a lot of new people and we are glad of that. Bring your friends and family next time for the Memorial Day Festival.

I felt so good every day, even though I had to make a trip first thing to Jefferson City for my antibiotic shot. I felt like playing and I did get to play with Wild Rose Band and then with the "Open Stage" group. I did sing a coule of songs, but I was so rusty. I felt it so strongly. I had not played my bass for a year and it had been almost that long since I sang publicly. I feel really blessed and I thank you for praying for me. God has truly answered prayers, because I feel good. Some heart recipients spend most of their time in the hospital waiting, but I have been able to be out....able to do for myself.....walk to regain my strength.....and enjoy my little babies.

Thanks to all of you who came to visit me at the ticket shack. I certainly enjoyed you and the special times we had together.

As of the 20th of August, I am back on the heart recipient list and my treatments for now are over. Now the waiting again. I pray for my miracle and I thank God for it every day.

Because He Lives
we have blessings,
Bessie
