Cor Sweetie, I lost my Daddy just over 2 years ago, he was my heart!!! I know just how you feel, my Dad was very faithful and I was raised in a Christan home, I think I could quote scripture before I could talk LOL!! But when I faced my father's death, I was angry a lot to I felt cheated, I thought, I don't have kids yet, my sisters got to have him be papa for their kids, they got to have him growing up, i lost him in our home at age 4, now have lost him in this world forever. I tell myself I will see him again in heaven and that is a comfort I am very grateful for but there are days all I want is him today!! God understands your pain and he will be there when you are ready, we all so blessed we have such a loving God One who WANTS to forgive us everything, one with endless patience and love beyond compare. I will continue to pray for you and that you find the Peace you seek!! You are a wonderful woman, one who shows the elderly you work with God's love everyday, I think you are closer than you think!! Hang in there sweetie and know you have many friends here who love you and support you!!
I know I am missing a lot but the list is calling my name hehe, so I better go get busy!!!
I love you all and am praying for each of you, thank you for all your prayers and support they mean the world to me!!

Howdy all....
Sometimes I feel like all I do is get on here and whine so when I have time to post I usually keep it to myself. So many of you are going thru such heart heavy times that I feel like a pansy but you know what you are all teaching me? That we all do really care about one another....and what is hurting you today may have hurt one of us in the past, and we can offer words of encouragement or at the very least, love and concern.
Cor...your honesty the last few days has really touched me deeply. But you sure opened a can of worms cause now you have a bunch of us praying for you! LOL You don't have to walk into a church to ask God why...just talk to Him, cry to Him, tell Him you're angry and hurt. It's ok because He already knows your heart...He wants to hear it from you. He loves you so much and He hurts because you are hurting. He doesn't always answer the way we (I) want, but He answers. And I agree with Jeanine...He does desire the best for us, but sometimes we don't understand why it's so hard and painful to get there. I am praying for peace for you and an understanding of His immense love for you. There are days I swear I hear my dad call my name and he's been gone 1 1/2 years and couldn't talk for 6 years before that. But that sure doesn't make missing him any easier. So many of us understand...
Sugar...I love your spirit. Thank you for your compassion and caring. You are precious.
Renee...I sure hope your eye starts feeling better. That must be miserable. Take care and congrats on your loss and passing on all the goodies! Way to go.
Andy...I bet you and Susan are exhausted from all the dr's visits. Get some rest, k?
Bec...I wish I could bottle some of your sassiness. I admire your get up and go and your excitement for life. You are so precious and I am glad you feel a wee bit better. I had pain in my upper left (where the biggest hole was) for about 6 weeks, but yours is lower, correct? Please be careful, and if it doesn't continue to get better, you have got to have it checked out. I mean it (stamping foot and wagging finger).
Janet....my heart goes out to you girl. You are such a trooper, and like Cor, you know that you can be honest and that is refreshing. Remember that Jon is learning so much being with you during this time...you know that you are doing the right thing for him. Most negativity that's being thrown at you is because they don't understand the situation. You decide what's right for your child(ren) and stick to it.
Vesta....safe journey and have fun!
Jan....I am so glad that Joe is doing better. I remember how frightened my husband would get every time I would have one. Then the frustration and anger would set in because he couldn't fix it. Now that you have mentioned that no one comes to see you, you are asking for trouble! You never know when a bunch of us may get a wild hair and head south for some time with you and Andy and Sugar and whomever else lives that way. You know, that does sound like fun....hmmm....I bet your yard is beautiful in the spring...hmmm....road trip anyone?
Debbie D....I live so close to Jamesport (sort of) and have never been. I've heard it's gorgeous and one of these days I'm going to get my hubby up there. I'm thankful you had such a lovely time.
Barb....are you as cold as I am? It's freezing here and wet and yucky. But I know we needed the rain. And I'm glad you're taking care of that kitten, I'm such a pushover. I already have one in the house and I'm sure we would've kept that one, too. But I agree, one litterbox user is enough.
Deb (Pooh)....you were quiet today...are you ok? Take care of yourself.
Sheila....are you feeling any better?
Sherr....where are you? I hope you're not on because you're having a good time...not the other way around. (Remember...you warned us and we miss you)
Those of you getting ready to hit the bench and waiting to hear on approval...make sure and keep us updated.
Now my question to those of you with gall bladder issues....my issues haven't been normal so I'm curious if occasional nausea immediately after I eat is something that is gall bladder related and how about a heart burn feeling but lower in the gut? Thanks to anyone *****plies.
Finally....I was able to stay home today and get tons of work done. Since my thyroid meds have been adjusted I seem to have a little more energy and today it showed. Mark's aunt didn't need me so I was able to get a lot of piddly stuff done that gets pushed to the side when a person is busy. We are trying to be more diligent about going to the gym so we've done better this week. We also are having several replacement window estimates done this week and we'll see how scary the final estimate will be. My poor hubby just doesn't have the time to do them. They are as old as the house and they do get cold. We need attic insulation, too. If it isn't one thing, it's another. But we will survive. Have a great rest of the night, I've got to get ready for church and choir.
