JUST HODGE PODGE

Hi everyone... Sorry not to have written yesterday, but we weren't here for most of the day. We decided to do a bit of household shopping early, so out we went yesterday. We also picked up a few groceries just to hold us over until we get paid again next week. I also finally used a gift card that I... Sign in to see full entry.

QUIET ONCE MORE

Belle and the kids have gone home. We didn't want them to go, but they had to. Poor Margaret actually cried after they left. She'll finally be going to Belle's house next month for Toby's birthday-unless we choose to have them come back here-and then Belle and the kids will come back in June so we...

GRATEFUL

Our little Christmas celebration went well. I received many very nice gifts from the girls. Belle gave me a coffee mug that says "IF YOU DON'T LIKE MY ATTITUDE QUIT TALKING TO ME!" That definitely gave me a good laugh. At first, she was worried that it would insult me, but I find it very funny! From... Sign in to see full entry.

NOT REALLY IN THE MOOD, BUT...

I'm still so numb and sad. Not to say that I haven't smiled or laughed. I have. But it just hurts so badly that I almost can't stand the pain. It is okay to laugh and be happy, I know that, and I don't want to tarnish his memory by being sad all the time. That's the last thing he would want. It will... Sign in to see full entry.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

I hate having to give people bad news in a letter or over the phone. Most of all though, I hate giving it via the computer. This time though, there's no choice. The trick is, knowing when to give her the news. If she doesn't already know. Which I'm not sure whether she does. I know she has to work... Sign in to see full entry.

MORE SAD NEWS FROM MUM

Hi everyone... Please may I ask for your prayers for my cousin Vicky? I spoke to Mum last night on the phone and she informed me that last month Vicky was diagnosed with MS. At the moment, she's receiving injection treatments. Thank you all and God bless. Sign in to see full entry.

STILL REELING

I still can't believe it. I'm still so numb. I still can't cry. Well, not really. I know the time to grieve will come, and I know when it does it won't be pretty. I guess the thing that makes me saddest is that Peter and I drifted apart after we broke up. I did try to stay in touch with him... Sign in to see full entry.

A NEW CHERUB FOR JESUS

Please pray for Laurie and her family... I just found out from Mum that baby Amaya has gone to be with Jesus. We are all very sad. Lord Jesus, I pray that you have saved the precious soul of Amaya that she may join you and her sisters Lexis and Elena in the kingdom of Heaven. Amen. Sign in to see full entry.

TEARS ON EARTH, JOY IN HEAVEN

I am in shock. I'm just absolutely dumbfounded...I'm utterly heartbroken, but can't cry. At least, not yet. The tears will flow, I have no doubt, but they just aren't ready yet...I guess... Just this morning, I was on facebook looking at some old pictures from the many years I spent going to a... Sign in to see full entry.

A HEAVENLY OCCASION

Happy anniversary, Nana and Grandpa... I hope the weather in Heaven is just perfect for your special day. I can see you sitting together in your lawn chairs holding hands and whispers words of love to each other. What happy times I had with you, especially on your anniversary when you always wanted...

YET ANOTHER ASAULT ON NORMANDY

It's such a beautiful day outside! A bit of a chill, but nothing horrible and the sun is nice and bright today. I wish it had been this nice on Tuesday when we went off to see the wizard! Oh, well. I'm actually planning to take Margaret out again at the end of the month. Hopefully to see THE CROODS... Sign in to see full entry.

A LION, A TIGER, AND A BEAR OH MY!

I swear, people should try to act more like animals sometimes! There are no lessons we human beings can teach wild animals...after all, God planted them on this earth long before we came along and screwed everything up! So they know everything they need to know. They, on the other hand, have a great... Sign in to see full entry.

THE WIZARD IS INDEED WONDERFUL!

Hi everyone... As I promised, here is my review of OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL. There are some things about this film that I didn't care for, but over all, it's a fantastic film and a great treat. I'm not at all surprised or shocked, but no less saddened by the fact that Disney has yet again produced... Sign in to see full entry.

LIGHT A CANDLE

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. I pray for ALL the victims...Not only the Jewish people who were lost, but those who were challenged in some way, the political prisoners, the Gypsies, the homosexuals, and the countless Christians who bore witness to the unspeakable atrocities. I give my thanks... Sign in to see full entry.
