WHATS HAPPENING SUNDAY
Today has been busy busy busy….
First I got up late , it was 7 am when I got up and so I called Andy and said have you already gone for a walk…He said yeah so I said well ok. And hung up and in just a few minutes he calls back and says did you say was I ready or had I gone , lol so he much have been half asleep too…..anyway my dog was sitting at the back door looking in at me stretching like he does when he knows we are going for a walk , crazy dog.
I finally got out of the house to do the walk at quarter till …felt good. I think the pill I took to keep me awak yesterday when it wore off I just passed out, cause this morning when I woke up I was still half on the bed like I had just sit down and lay the top part over into the bed, wasn’t covered up or anything lol
Went to the birthday party for the great grandson. He had a really good time. I took one taste of the cake. Not the frosting but just the cake and yuck it sure was sweet.
After that we went to Celebrate America since my son can get us free tickets , then to supper and then to his play THE PROMISE….wow I went last year but was before he got bigger parts. This year he plays the father of the little girl that dies and he bring her to Jesus …then he also plays the part of Pilate does are wonderful job of it too. So if you get a chance to go you should.
Just got home while ago so thought I better get this written and posted.
The board has really been busy looks like.
LORI ::::: so how did your Sat go , did you get done all you wanted to do?
There is a web site for the Doc but it doesn’t tell you much. The best way for them to find out is to go to a seminar.
Hope you are feeling well and don’t give in to eating something before it is time. I tried a bite and it doesn’t feel good in fact I got real sick. So don’t do it.
BEC::::I know you have been kept busy today loving on your baby. So have a great time and enjoy every minute.
You just stay so busy in your pretty home, you could give Martha Stewart a run for her money couldn’t you lol .
Oh believe me when I say I cant sing. I use to sing really purty if I do say so myself but don’t know what happened I sure don’t now. I would classify it somewhere in the bottom two things you would ever want to hear. Lol
You will be able to out run ,out last and out wit, no no that is survivor ,,,,,but you will be at the very least keep up with those girls. My oldest daughter told me the last time I saw her , that she couldn’t keep up with me. Lol
Sounded like some sort of sweet music and sure wasn’t anything I sang l
ANDY ::::: thanks for the tips on the c- pap machine. Bec did you get that????
SUGAR:::::I know and understand about the show sweetie, really I do. Hey do you still want to try to get the info from the people about all of that for a game???
I thought of something too involving the one suit of big clothes that we all kept to see later on…..
Maybe a fashion show????
I will bring my coffee pot and cups etc just in case we want to make some coffee and yes it is de-caf.
Hey how was your double date. I think that sounds neat. . I didn’t know Sherri was engaged…when did that happen.???
Cheles new house is letting her move stuff into it already before the signing?
LAYLA::::: hope you all had a blast at the fair. Tell us all about it.
NUTTI:::: lol sounds like you are another push over ..lol ….just tell them up front that you don’t intend to be the only person working in that house and that he better have a job with in a few weeks. …you will have to stay strong.
Lol. Wow you had one huge big meal before you weighted yourself didn’t you?
Look at what you wrote you weighted now after gaining another pound.lol

Good morning all! Hey sis, sounds like those pills may do the trick with you getting to sleep at night and not feeling groggy during the day but I hate the idea of having to take a pill to stay awake...what is it? And do you really want that in your system all the time? Just wondering and worrying like a sister...OH wait a minute, I am your sister, so I CAN worry! lol! It sounds like you really konked out when you went to bed...
So did Brendan like his birthday party and how about Mikeala? I bet they both were cute as can be..
How was Celebrate America? Ive never seen it. I sure wish Steve could work some magic to get my Sr Adults in to see the Promise for almost nothing! lol! I know they would love it but the fixed income keeps alot of them from spending that much on it.
The fashion show sounds really neat..and I can still try to do the game thing but I might not be there so ...???
I will email you some info about the other game.
So it sounds like the new girls on the bench are each having their newbie anxieties...remember those...??? Am I doing everything right? Wonder if I can have this? Etc etc....
Sherri and David and Rick and I went out to Coltons for supper and then went and walked around Walmart ...kinda an old couples date...lol! We had a great time with them anyway..she got engaged about 6 months ago and they are getting married in Novemeber. Hes a great guy with a wonderful heart and he is crazy over her. She called me when she first met him and wanted me to come meet him. LOL! Wanted another opinion of him I think. Hes a hard worker who is a really good Christian man. I think she was blessed to find him, as we all know there arent too many good men left in the world.
Yeah Chelles builder knows all of us and is a good guy and hes letting her move her stuff into the house cause it is just a matter of time and closing. She cant move in there yet but she can move her stuff in. We set her bedroom up yesterday with my old stuff and she and Rick moved the boys loft beds into thier rooms. Everything else is just in boxes everywhere! I dont envy her any. Plus the studio over here is full of boxes and some furniture too. If she signs on it this week, maybe we can help her get all settled in next weekend. It would be nice for her to have all that done and feel like she can start fresh and new.
Well I am going to get off of here and go study my SS lesson again. Love to all and may you have a blessed LORD's day!
GOD is my ROCK! SUGAR


First, I got a WONDERFUL package in the mail!!! It blessed me and made me cry several times while I looked it all over!!! Janet I will write you as soon as I get back from the test this week...... a simple THANK YOU is NOT enough and I have so much response to what all you wrote...
The package was full of little goodies... best of all was all the cards, an 8 page letter (on notebook paper front and back)! ~ chocked full of little tid bits of wisdom! two journals and a purse size photo book to put "before and after" pictures. It made me cry several times reading what all she wrote! Janet you are a doll and I will be praying for all you spoke of! Just like you are trusting all will be good for me I am trusting all will work out for you in the Lord's very best plan!!! I have so much more I want to say to you but time is sure not on my side right now I have way way much to do before I will be ready to leave for Debbie's in the morning.
Shelley ~ You just can't possibly know what all your personal messages have done and are doing to help get me or my nerves thru this process! Your positive spirit is so uplifting! I appreciate you surely more than you know... I will send you a message here shortly... THANK YOU! I read your last message last night when I was so very tired and nearly in tears because my feet were swollen the size of balloons... my daughter said, "momma I can't even look at those"... I just seem anxious that it is becasue of my heart that they are swelling like that... your encouraging words came at just the right time! Bless you dear lady!
Andrew ~ Thank You so much for the words of advise... I am struggling with the c~pap but seemed a bit better last night since I slept in the recliner with my head elevated... it didn't feel so much like the air was choking me or being forced down my throat... and I feel a bit more rested too.... I had a crazy busy day yesterday so I knew the sleep was not going to be all that good. I can't seem to go real hard and work all day on four hours of sleep no matter how good it is. Your encouragment gives me hope I WILL get it worked out with the machine and your words helped me to know what is normal and what is not... overall I think having my head elavated is going to do the job... we will see. Do you sleep with your head elevated? more than just a pillow? When I am laying down regular like, I feel like I'm being choked. I hate that feeling! That was even before the machine came.
My dear

Well, on to yesterday... my daughter decided she was going to help me get some cooking done up and in the freezer for Paul while I was trying to get used to this new way of life. So I worked real hard to get all the recipes together and shopping list made...she had a hair appt in town so I got the groceries while she had her hair cut... it was 5:00 before we got started last nigth but we got nearly 30 meals in the deep freeze by midnight!! I am cooking chicken right now for the one recipe we did not get finished... wow was that work! But I feel much better about it. And won't worry so much what I am going to do for him... we do not live where he can just run over and get a burger for his meals. My dear daughter worked and worked and worked with me! I sure am blessed to have all this wonderful support and help!!!
Her and Paul got the big tall ladder in here and cleaned ceiling fans and vents yesterday too... it took them about an hour and fifteen to what would have taken me three to do... I had been trying to get that for awhile now so I could start my fall cleaning a bit early... my time is running out and I am slower than I used to be.
Debbie Darl'n I'm nearly on my way... I sure did not get a bit of rest and if my heart is stressed I sure was not able to do it much good... but I guess the truth will come out here in a few hours!!! ~ha I will call you this evening. OK nearly tears here... you my dear lady.... are simply the best! ~ right along with all these other dear dear ones that have ministered to me! I cringe to wonder what I would be like if I did not have all the wonderful people that have stepped along side me to help me thru this whole process!
I wish I had time to stay and chat some more but I need to get in there and start breakfast, finish the other recipe for Paul, get some clothes washed for tomorrow and my tennis shoes... I am making something for Debbies husband and boys that are being so gracious to let me invade there space... along with a huge list of other things before I will be ready to go.. and also I am going to take time to get some more of those wonderful hugs from my daughter!!!~tee hee
I am thinking and praying for all the ladies that had surgery this week.
Renee' you never leave my mind very far...I continue to pray you will stay strong, and will have a surgery date just real soon!
I am also so very excited about Dennis being able to have surgery! He is in my thoughts and prayers too! I just know this is going to be lifesaving for him! God is so good!
I will post Wednesday about my travels. Thank you again to ALL of you for the time you take to post and pray.... I have learned so much and NEVER take a prayer that is spoke on my behalf for granted!
Have so much more to say but I have so much to do too... I pray all safe days full of blessings you didn't even think about!
bec
Yesterday I had all these things that I wanted to do and didn't get 1/2 of them done. I did 3 small loads of laundry, spray painted a wroth iron dog bed and that's about it since I took a 3 hr. long nap late in the afternoon! I have to get busy today and get my house cleaned this is the only time I have to do it before I have to go back to work on Mon.
Jan, you commented on my protein and how little I was getting. Yeah I know but I am out of my protein powder right now and can't afford to buy any since I just started my new job it's going to be a while before I get a check especially since it's a school and they only pay once a month which really bites that's the only thing about my new job that I hate! I don't eat much cause when I do I feel sick so I eat only a few bites of what I put on my plate I get sick to easily to pu**** to the limits. As soon as I get paid in 2 weeks I will be able to get some more protein powder so it will get better just have to hang in there.
My sister (ok she is really a friend but like a sister) who lives with me went to KC Thurs. and is still there. I couldn't go because I just started my new job and couldn't take off so I had to stay home. Anyway my oldest sister which I'm very close to is sending me a bunch of clothes that she bought for me so I'm excited about that especially since I only have like 2 outfits that fit me and will stay up when I walk. She also bought me some new bra's and underwear which I'm thankful for too cause I'm swimming in what I have (thank God for safty pins....LOL) I can't wait until tomorrow when she comes home and I get my surprise!
Well, guess I better get dressed and get busy cause before I know it the day will be over with again and I won't get anything accomplished that I need to. So take care everyone and God bless.
Dear Auntie Jan and OH Peeps~
Yesterday was pretty busy for me. I did get to spend most of the afternoon into evening with my youngest daughter, Stephanie-who, by the way, I MISS so much! I NEVER get tired of her hugs out of the blue or her saying she loves me. Makes me ultra sad when she isnt here with me. I know we cant live together, but I WISH we could. I miss her so much. I just started crying when her dads mom came to pick her up. I wanted so badly to tell her that she could stay with me. She had spent 3 days at my moms place-so I got spoiled seeing her 3 days in a row-and I have to admit, it made my heart hurt when she left last night.
She uploaded a lot of photos on my profile for me. Had I known more would fit-I would have added more of the Grand Canyon. The first day ones-you can tell that Mike and I are just exhausted. It was hard to say goodbye to dad, walk out of the hospital and know we would never see him again. DAMN! The 2nd day was a lot better. Felt somewhat rested anyway! The boys, I remember-fell fast asleep with their clothes on and I couldnt bear the thought of waking them up-just to change into another set of clothes. LOL....
Today, not doing much-the pain is determining what Im doing today-and so, its not much. Mike and the boys are at the track-Stephy starts her new high school tomorrow morning, plus she is going to night school to make up for the credits she is lacking. She is also taking an hour of graphics arts classes during the day at the college. I am so proud of her. IF your reading this, and wouldnt mind-would you please say a prayer for Stephanie and her day tomorrow? Please pray that she doesnt get scared or overwhelmed and that the kids welcome her with open arms. Thank you so much.
Well, I am glad that the packages made it to Bev and Bec alright. FINALLY! Made my heart feel good. Didnt think they would ever get there, tho-have to be honest.
Well, I just wanted to pop in and say hi. I will be thinking and praying for all of you. Love and prayers to all, Janet
