Christy's couch

Hi everyone... Well, as you all can see, we did in fact manage to get up bright and early this morning. Not that we enjoyed doing so one bit! Unfortunately, the next couple of days are going to be hectic for us, so there's no choice in the matter. I just pulled the best ever birthday surprise on... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... I hope you've all had a fantastic Sunday. Margaret and I were very lazy today. We didn't get out of bed until 9:30! Unfortunately, we have to be up at 7:00 tomorrow morning, so we have to go to bed right after THE AMAZING RACE tonight. Margaret will be leaving to go to Belle's... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... I hope you're all having an excellent Saturday so far. It's a brisk and chilly day here. Never mind, I can sit inside and write to you all and look outside and see all the magnificent foliage. I haven't seen our little squirrel troupe for a day or so now. I miss them! We're going to...

Hi everyone... Please if I may, I need to ask for urgent prayers for our friend Cory and her family, most especially her ninety three year old father. Margaret bumped into Cory at the grocery store yesterday and Cory had some very sad news to share. This week, Cory will be flying home to the... Sign in to see full entry.

Along with my beautifully coloured little trees, we have some small bushes that are also really lovely to look at. It's such a privilege to be able to wake up every day and come to sit here and write and look out the window and see them. Their leaves are a brilliant red, though exactly what shade...

Hi everyone... I hope you're all having an excellent Wednesday afternoon so far. What a gorgeous day outside! I'm so glad we were able to get out of the house today, even if only for a short time. We did indeed get to APPLEBEE'S for our early lunch, and everything was fantastic as usual. I had a... Sign in to see full entry.

I signed up long ago to receive emails from the ASPCA. I don't read all of them. Some of them are just too painful for me to even glance at, and some are just repeats of emails that I've already received. But there was one today that I felt I must sign. No matter how much it breaks my heart. I may... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... I hope you've all had an awesome Tuesday so far. It's such a gorgeous day outside. Very cold, though not so windy as yesterday. Thank goodness! That was really unpleasant! I think Fall is the time when I notice the sheer gloriousness of God's creation. It's so beautiful to be able to... Sign in to see full entry.

THREE MONTHS OCTOBER You sit there in the surgeon’s office, stunned. He’s been talking for the past half hour, but all you can do is stare out the window at leaves falling from the trees and the people passing on the street. It’s a gorgeous morning in early October. It’s cold, but after you got the... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... I hope you all had a decent Monday. Today was not a good day for me. There are many reasons as to why, but most of them I don't want to go into just now. It is raining cats and dogs today and so windy you'd look like Mary Poppins if you were to step outside! My poor little trees are... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, so here's what Kamilla posted to facebook. Again, I hope it gives y'all a good hard belly laugh! America was not shut down properly.

Hi again everyone... Okay, so I'm going to attempt to repost Becky's funny from facebook the other day, but I'm afraid you'll have to deal without the photo! No matter what I do, it just refuses to show up here! Anyhoo, here's the funny for y'all! Hope it makes you laugh as hard as I did! There is... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... I hope you're all having a pleasant Saturday so far. It is far too cold for my liking today! No rain, but we had to close the windows again! Sigh. It is getting to be that time of year, after all. True to my word, I reported that ridiculous woman to the writers group yesterday... Sign in to see full entry.

I am absolutely furious! I cannot believe the utter gall of some people. This is not the first time this has happened to me, and I have no doubt whatsoever that it will not be the last. I'm sure it has happened to a few of you before as well. Please allow me to explain the reason for my tirade. This... Sign in to see full entry.

Becky posted this on facebook yesterday, and it's so damn funny I just had to share it with you all, my friends. Hope you enjoy! Sign in to see full entry.

Oh, my! I honestly don't know what to say here...much less think! I'm not the least bit upset or even slightly hurt, just very confused, I'm afraid. Then again, it really doesn't take a whole lot to confuse me these days. Sigh. Our dear C C T left a comment regarding my story of yesterday, most of... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy birthday, Nana! It's a beautiful day here on earth, and I wish I could celebrate your special day with you again. I know your birthday in Heaven is extra special, because Jesus is there to celebrate it with you. I love you, Nana. I miss you so much! If I could reach up into Heaven, I'd give...

What a way to come into October! As I wrote earlier, I had a horrible dream last night! I really can't talk about it yet, except to say that I don't know if it was Vyktor coming to me again...or not...but I think this was something entirely different altogether. Although talking of Vyktor...it has... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy first day of October, my friends... I can't believe today is already the first day of the new month! Thankfully, despite the government shutdown here, we got our checks this morning. I can only pray the stalemate will end quickly. I truly feel for those who will be unable to go to work until... Sign in to see full entry.
