SOMETHING TO HOLD ON TO

Some time ago, I asked my friend who's been so ill lately if he had any old shirts he didn't wear much anymore, and if so, would he be willing to send one on to me. We hadn't known each other for very long, so he found it a rather strange request. To be honest, I didn't-and still don't-blame him one... Sign in to see full entry.

THE NEXT SECTION OF THE HOUSE OF GLASS

She stands in the pet food aisle of the grocery, trying to decide which flavour her Sweetpea will like most. She’s never been a picky cat, but she likes it when mummy changes flavours now and then. She decides on the chicken and seafood flavour. Canned, along with a bag of organic dry. Then she goes... Sign in to see full entry.

I SALUTE YOU, COLONEL POTTER

Harry Morgan, who was best known for his role as Colonel Sherman T. Potter on MASH, has died at the age of ninety six. Mr. Morgan passed away at his home this morning. MASH has always been and will always be one of my absolute favourite television shows. I love the show's ability to make fun of a... Sign in to see full entry.

IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE!

Earlier this afternoon, Tricia's Mum organised a surprise birthday party for us. Unfortunately, (and none of us are going to cofess-we don't want to hurt Mary's feelings!) Margaret had to let the cat out of the bag so to speak. The reason being that both Tricia and I sometimes have anxiety issues,... Sign in to see full entry.

WHERE HAS MY VOICE GONE??!

I haven't lost my voice completely, but yesterday I made a horrible discovery...I CAN'T SING! I keep trying, but I sound funny! Please don't worry, I'm not straining my chords at all. But I just don't understand it. I just can't sing! Perhaps my voice hath offended the Gods? Heaven forbid! I think... Sign in to see full entry.

AN ANGEL TO COMFORT HIM

I am more than worried now...I'm actually starting to get really frightened. And I pray daily to ask God to ease this horrible fear. There's only one other thing I know to do, so I'll do it. My friend is still so sick. He is diabetic, and on top of that, he had a heart attack nearly eight months... Sign in to see full entry.

PRAYERS NEEDED FOR AN OLD FRIEND

Hi everyone... Please may I ask for prayers for an old school friend? He goes into hospital tomorrow to have two hernias repaired in his stomach area. He will be there for five to six days, so he won't be able to have Thanksgiving at home. Thank you all and God bless. Sign in to see full entry.

A LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD ME

I'm feeling so blessed today. I think too often, we do so much complaining about the things God doesn't give us that sometimes we forget to focus on what we DO have. There is a reason God doesn't always give us what we may ask Him for, and yes, I am thankful for that, too. The Father whispered in my... Sign in to see full entry.
