Little Things

In my yard I had an area 4X5 foot surrounded by rocks right in front of my porch. It sort of died out in the last couple of years. But this week I have ONE crocus that has bloomed- where there were many there is now one. It is beautiful. It gave it a try and it made it. I appreciate the fact. I also looked at an area outside my bedroom. I have a few flowers their size is so tiny. Three blue bloom on a three inch stem. The three blooms aren't even an inch in size. They are delicate but also beautiful. This caused me to look for my paper whites. I believe I found where they are starting to come up.

I think there is a lesson here for all of us. It's the little things that count in life. We don't need a dozen roses when a "dandylion" given in love means so much more. Look at the little things and appreciate them they are a gift from God.

Sometimes things happen that simply overwhelm me. So much sadness. So much stupidity. I want to scream!!
Get to God. There is nothing that He can't handle. We live in a world that needs God.
I think about all the senseless deaths in this world. I can pray and I do and there are so many to pray for.
I also cry.
Tonight give your loveones an extra hug and pray an extra prayer for them.

new look

Thanks to my DIL I have a new delightful look. As I start a new phase in my life even my blog is looking new.

Stressful days.

Well God let me make it through a few bad days. The new pill I started on Tuesday hit me like a ton of bricks. Iwas walking home from town meeting when I went sprawling in the middle of the road. It was fun trying to get up. Naturally since I had removed the boot from my left leg I had to skin my right knee and hurt my right arm. When I got up from the chair so I could close the drapes I started to pass out. Held on for deer life--made a chair and sat with my head between my knees until I felt okey. Within a few minutes I had to use the bathroom and while I was in there waves of nausea hit and I sat there getting sick in the wastebasket I held in front of me. That pill should be taken at night and I took it in afternoon. Called my neighbor that is a nurse and showed her the paper which I hadn't read like I should have.
Yesterday my friend"s funeral was at 6pm. We had a snow storm coming but I made the trip. There was snow but not enough to stop meand I was driving very carefully because my right arm was hurting from the fall Tuesday eve. It was as nice as a funeral can be. But my friend had the pastor give the plan of salvation during the sermon. It is what Glada wanted. A mom's last message to her kids that needed to hear it and to anyone else that needed it. I didn't stay after for the food I left so I could get home.

Tests

Well I went to the doctor. It was almost all good. I don't have to wear the boot as long as it doesn't start to hurt because the bone isn't bothering me. My blood sugar was good. My blood pressure wasn't. Another pill to take. Thats 3 for blood pressure. He gave me a prescription for generic chloesteral (sp) medication. I have to stop the expensive one and do the generic and come back in 2 months. If I am okey with the generic I can stay on it. He wants to check and see so the expensive one is put on hold. We will just have to wait and see.

My Friend

Well the good Lord took her home this morning. No more pain,no more suffering, just enjoying the joys of heaven.
A perfect time of year for her to go;when we all are reminded what God did for us.
Happy Easter to you all.

The deed is done and our Savior is in the tomb! Is there anyone that doesn't believe it was hard and difficult?
But as hard as it was, He has to finish the task. He has to arise on the third day.
He did it. The stone is rolled away.
HE IS RISEN!
What did I do to deserve this? Nothing!! We should all be shouting and praising Him!

Happy Easter and God Bless

Tests and other updates.

Well this morning I had to go for blood work. Joy Joy. First one girl tried and then another girl was asked to try. The second girl played with the needle in my arm for quite a while but she finally got it. It is strange that I worry more about getting the blood than the results.

Saturday I went to visit my friend in the hospital. She went in on Feb.17th. She was out and in nursing home for less than a week and back in the hospital. She said they are not doing any thing for the cancer and it is thru her body. She is in a great deal of pain but the pain medicine either knocks her out or gets her not thinking straight. Her battle is 13 years now.

Someone I know received bogus travel checks in the mail. Three thousand dollars worth. I said SCAM. I went to the computer and questioned google. 66 hits in 4 seconds. It is all over U.S.

Have a great week. We are supposed to get snow tomorrow. Didn't someone say its spring.
Did your computer move the clock an hour yesterday?

God Bless
