Well if you haven’t herd, there has been some excitement with the Bayless family lately. First of all, Granton got sick. He temp stayed normal so we did not have to take him to the hospital but he got a very bad case of the stomach crud. He puked all night and into the next morning. He also had it running out of the other end as well. I was concerned because he couldn’t even keep down water and I did not want him to dehydrate. This was keeping Jenni and me pretty busy and concerned when I had my little accident.
I have had the same truck since college. Her name is or was Penny because she had a bronze paint job. I have so many good memories with Penny. She took Jenni and me on our first date. I used her to teach the track kids how to change a tire because I want the girls on the team to be able to rely on themselves and not a stranger when they have a flat on the side of the rode. However, Penny never left me stranded. She faithfully worked hard for every time I asked her for anything. In over 11 years I have spent less then $200 on any repairs for her. She was a great truck and I will miss her. As you can see from the pictures she is gone. Penny slid on some ice and we did an upside down Dukes of Hazard off the side of a bridge and crashed onto a rock bank twenty feet below. I will miss Penny very much but I am very grateful to be alive. I walked away from the accident. Countless people have pointed out that I should have died. I would like to point out that God in charge of that and he still wants me on this earth. Anyway, I did have to go the emergency room after some strong arm twisting. They put me in a neck brace, and prescribed some x-rays, a cat scan and some stitches but I am basically fine. As you can imagine I was pretty bummed on my way home. But my day brightened when I saw Granton run to the door calling “Daddy, Daddy, hold you [which means pick me up].” He was better and that made my day much better. That was about a week ago. Since then Granton is back to feeling great and eating anything he can get his hands on. The pukes and the runs are gone. I feel much better; in fact I just had a fellow teacher help me cut some of the stitches out. Penny is gone but my family in intact. We are well and God is great. The G man has a big test on March 17th. Please pray for him and his donor B cells. Thanks and God Bless you
