Ugh! I hate days like this! Though I have to confess, I am bsoooo glad it's Thursday! That means tomorrow is the official start of the weekend! Bring it on, I say! My back is once more being invaded by my "beloved" Gestapo and the neausea is back, BIG TIME. Not fun. Hopefully, it will bugger off... Sign in to see full entry.

PRAYERS NEEDED FOR JIM, BUT ALSO SOME GREAT NEWS
Hi everyone... Please may I ask you to keep my big Scottish brother Jim in your prayers? He's spending the night in Dundee because he has an interview for a new job tomorrow. He'll maintain his job as a care home facilitator, but this interview is for a new position. I'm so excited for him! If he is... Sign in to see full entry.
AN UPDATE ON WALTER
Hi everyone... I just wanted to thank you on behalf of Becky and Walter and their families for your prayers for them. Becky updated us last night via face book. She was able to speak to Walter briefly last night on the phone, and although he was a bit loopy from the medications, he is doing well for... Sign in to see full entry.

PRAYERS NEEDED FOR MY BECKY
Hi everyone... I'm sorry not to have written anything too substantial over the past day or two, but I just can't seem to get myself into it at the moment. Will try again as soon as my brain feels a bit more settled. Please may I ask you all to pray urgently for Becky? And most especially for Walter?... Sign in to see full entry.

MUNDANE MONDAY
Hi everyone... I hope you all had a blessed Sunday. I'm doing my best to leave my laptop turned off on Sundays again. At least, until November, when I'll have to start my maddening last second Christmas shopping! Yes, I'm already thinking ahead. I have no further updates on Katie's Mum at the...

SOME GOOD NEWS FOR KATIE'S MUM
Hi everyone... I just wanted to drop by and give you all an update on my friend Katie's Mum, Francine. It turns out that she was not septic, as the doctors first thought. She was extremely dehydrated. At the moment, her electrolites are still very high, but there are improving. Since there is no... Sign in to see full entry.

REST IN PEACE, BEAUTIFUL BOY
I'm so heartbroken. I knew this day would come, but I kept praying it would be a long way off yet. It wasn't. At around 12:30 this afternoon, Jerry and Joanne (our neighbours) knocked on the door. They never knock on our door to ask for anything, so Margaret knew something was wrong. She opened the... Sign in to see full entry.
PROBLEM SOLVED!
I got a repsonse to my email to amazon last night. I was very pleasantly surprised! The gentleman who responded to my request was very polite. He apologised several times throughout his email for the mix up with my order. So nice of him, but as I wrote yesterday, it's no big deal really since both... Sign in to see full entry.

A SLIGHT MIX UP
The strangest thing just happened to me! It doesn't bother me at all...Actually, I had to laugh! On Saturday, I placed an order with amazon for a couple of small household items. One of them was a twenty four pack of Green Mountain Mocha Nut Fudge k cups. Well, my box came in the post about half an... Sign in to see full entry.

BLUE
I haven't had a good day at all. It started early this morning with a really bad dream that I had about someone I still love very much. I know it's just a dream...but it makes me so sad. Then we got the news about Becky's step Dad. I've been having a physical issue for the past few days...It's not... Sign in to see full entry.
PRAYERS NEEDED

ANOTHER BITTERLY COLD NIGHT
Wow! It is COLD outside! I am so thankful I am able to stay indoors and not have to be outside in the wind and the snow. I truly feel for those who have to be. Thankfully, according to what Mum told me last night, the weather for tomorrow and Monday is supposed to be much better. That is, unless... Sign in to see full entry.

MORE THAN ANGRY...OUTRAGED
Margaret and I don't normally watch the news, as most of you know. However, there's a segment on the evening news that we like to watch called the person of the week. Tonight's segment not only made me furious, it broke my heart. The segment was about a woman, Anne Deggman and her son, Steven, who... Sign in to see full entry.
A SLIGHT CORRECTION TO LAST NIGHT'S STORY POST
Hi everyone... I just realised that I need to make a slight correction regarding last night's post of our story. Something didn't seem right about it after I'd already posted it here, and now I know what it was. Razelle was born on 13 October, 1925. As she was three years older than Leni, Leni was...

WE NOW CONTINUE
We had such a happy childhood, Razelle and I! I came from a large family full of Grandparents and Aunts and Uncles and cousins. For the most part, we loved each other dearly and protected each other fiercely. Razelle was born two years after my parents were married. While the news that a first child...

Also, please include Katie, her sister Becky and brother Gary, as well as their dad in your prayers. Thank you all and God... Sign in to see full entry.
OUR STORY CONTINUES
In time, as a young woman both during and after the war, I would go to confession only to ease the great burden upon my soul. Not for any need that a priest should have the privilege of hearing about any wrong doings I may have committed. Certainly one of those would have been the fact that I saved...
