SWEET SEPTEMBER??

Wow! Is it really the nineth month of 2012 already?? Well, happy first of September my friends! I actually have a lot going on for myself over the next couple of months. One of the biggest of which is that I want to start my drawing lessons again on the very first day of Fall! Rather symbolic I... Sign in to see full entry.

THANKS MUM!

Mum came for coffee earlier and brought a present for Margaret and me. We are now the very proud and very happy owners of a popcorn popper! Hooray! Now we can make our own popcorn and top it just the way we like it! My favourite toppings are melted butter and parmaesan cheese. Tasty! When Grammy was... Sign in to see full entry.

A SUNNY LITTLE FELLOW

Its been decided. Margaret did in fact get her way, and our brand new fuzzy baby boy has been given the name Sunny. The name truly suits him. He's very friendly and loveable. Just like my Meeko! Margaret went upstairs last night to feed and cuddle and play with him for a while, and she says he likes... Sign in to see full entry.

A BRAND NEW FUZZY BUNDLE OF JOY

We have a brand new baby boy in the house! He hasn't been officially named yet, since Margaret and I still can't settle on a name, but he's just about the sweetest little critter I've ever met! (Next to my little Meeko, of course. Don't you worry, Boo...You'll always be my favourite kitty. Mummy... Sign in to see full entry.

SHOCK AND SORROW

Hi everyone... Please, may I ask you to pray for Margaret and her family? Margaret's Dad, Earl, rang her earlier this afternoon to inform her that her oldest sister, Ruthie, died suddenly sometime this morning. Clara is also in need of urgent prayer. She was found cold and unresponsive in her bed... Sign in to see full entry.

THINKING OF AN OLD BLOGIT FRIEND

Hi everyone... I'm just wondering-since I'm probably well out of the loop-has anyone heard from our dear friend Rumor or know how he's doing? If anyone has any news they could share with me, I'd truly appreciate it! Thanks and God bless. Sign in to see full entry.

MAY YOU COUNT ALL THE STARS IN THE HEAVENS

I'm so sad today. I just heard the news that Jerry Nelson, an actor who voiced several SESAME STREET characters, including one of my favourites, Count Von Count, has died. Mr. Nelson was an active and valued member of the SESAME STREET family for forty years. What a rich gift of love, learning and... Sign in to see full entry.

A SALUTE TO ONE LESS RECOGNISED

It happened on Sunday morning. A gentleman I never knew passed away at his home with his loving wife by his side. His name is Mr. George Hickman, and he was eighty eight years old. As I say, I didn't know this gentleman personally, but I'll be forever grateful to him and to all the gentlemen who... Sign in to see full entry.

THEY NEVER FORGET

I was so heartbroken and angry a couple of weeks ago when I read and heard about some elephants who were orphaned because of heartless poachers in Chad. Those poor, sweet babies probably watched in horror while their mothers-and perhaps even their whole herd-was savagely killed before their very... Sign in to see full entry.

BAD NEWS ON THE FRONT

Sigh... I'm afraid I have some very bad news regarding the MRI scan of yesterday. It did not go at all well. The reason being is that, as I knew it would, the inevitible happened. I tried to explain this to all three ladies-including Patsy-but none of them seem to be able to wrap their heads round... Sign in to see full entry.

REST IN PEACE

Hi everyone... Just a couple of weeks ago, I asked for prayers for my friends Bill and his best friend Angela. Angela was in hospital with an infection caused by her cancer. I just received word from Bill that Angela passed away today. Thank you all so much for the prayers. Sign in to see full entry.

TOMORROW

I just received a call back from the lady at the MRI centre. We did my pre-test questions over the phone this morning, so all set there. Now if only tomorrow would hurry up and get over with! Sign in to see full entry.

PRAYERS AND SILENT SORROW

Please, please join me in prayer for the victims of the shooting outside Texas A and M University this morning. My heart goes out to the families and friends and to the victims and the family of the shooter, too. Sign in to see full entry.

ANOTHER MONDAY?

Wow! The weekend went by waaay too fast! I hope you all had a fantastic one, my friends. But is it really Monday again already??!! We did have some badly needed rain over the weekend, but not nearly enough to satisfy our poor dried up planet. Once again, it is muggy, sticky and altogether miserable... Sign in to see full entry.

CHANGE OF PLAN

So... I spoke to Patsy very late yesterday afternoon. Like me, she is very worried about the fact that this wound seems to be refusing to heal itself. However, she is not going to prescribe antibiotics. Instead, I've been scheduled for an MRI late next Wednesday afternoon. The reason being that... Sign in to see full entry.

NO END IN SIGHT...BUT AT LEAST I'M GETTING SOME COMIC RELIEF!

This blasted wound is driving me to the brink. It refuses to start closing itself together and now I think I may have a slight infection. Now, please don't worry. This is pretty common stuff give the type of wound and the location of it. Tendon wounds are always one of the hardest to heal. At my... Sign in to see full entry.

WITH GREAT SORROW

Some of you may remember that toward the end of last year, I posted that my friend John's father Slavko was very ill and battling cancer. I asked for prayers for the family at that time. I spoke to John earlier this afternoon and it is with great sorrow I must report that Slavko passed away on 2... Sign in to see full entry.

POSITIVELY MELTING!

Happy Monday afternoon everyone! Phew! It has been hot, hot, hot here! All I can say at this point is praise the Lord for the invention of air conditioners and fans! Thankfully I still have plenty of ice cream to keep me happy as well. The girls and I are going to have some lunch soon and then... Sign in to see full entry.

SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO MORALS WHATSOEVER

It just happened AGAIN! The person who has been emailing me using our dear Offy's email address(or should I say, her former address) has just sent me another one. I'm going to block the sender and I strongly suggest that if any of you receive a suspicious looking message you do the same. Sign in to see full entry.

AN ENEMY IN OUR MIDST?

Hello dear ones... I'm writing this post because I'm very worried about some of my fellow bloggers. And frankly, I am disgusted. I'm NOT going to accuse ANYONE here of doing anything wrong, I just want you all to be aware of a possible situation, if in fact there is one. For those of you who knew... Sign in to see full entry.
