My wonderful friends,
More problems had mounted upon my previous list. Financial, family friction, problems at work. It seems the more I pray , and the more people pray for me thev worse things get.
At work yesterday, two of my administrators, held a meeting with me about my behavior at work. One, who has known me the longest, said I haven't been performing like the usual Vicki she's known...

Just a brief update on my diabetes status.
Today was a good day, I managed to keep my blood sugar under 7,
which is almost my goal.
Since here in Canada, the normal reading is between 4 - 6.
So below 7 is really good in my case.
When I was first diagnosed it was at 20.
I am positive, that I will manage to reverse this diabetes status.
I eat well, exercise, move around all the time now.

Every single evening
As I'm lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:
God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm
And safe from harm
For they're so close to me..
And God, there is one more thing
I wish that you could do;

Girls night out
My sisters and friends are going to see a Rock Concert

Took a chance on asking me,
if I would go with them.
Knowing I never go out, especially places with many people
well I decided to give it a shot.
I am feeling much better this year,
besides you'll never guess

It's the Eagles
They have always been a big part of my younger days,

The Last Time.
If I knew it would be the last time
that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more.

Plans for decorating:
Kitchen:
All accents, like curtains, rugs, clock, plant pots, tea kettle, place mats, table cloth, napkins, etc. will be bright yellow against stark white, with a touch of black.
Living room:
Furnture and cutains will be shabby chic. Lots of floral designs and pictures. Ni limits on colors. I'm going to hang multi colored patio lights on the ceiling. I know it sounds gaudy, ...2 Recommendations9 Comments -

Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout
Would not take the garbage out!
She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans,
Candy the yams and spice the hams,
And though her daddy would scream and shout,
She simply would not take the garbage out.
And so it piled up to the ceilings:
Coffee grounds, potato peelings,
Brown bananas, rotten peas,
Chunks of sour cottage cheese.
It filled the can, it covered the floor,
