  • TRADITION! tradition....

    Wednesday, March 19, 2008 | A Frustrating story

     Tradition..... tradition! Ah the words from a song from "Fiddler on a Roof".
    I tried so hard when my kids were growing up to impress on them all the many Catholic traditions of Holy Week. Every year I would be bombarded with stuff that would divert their attention from holiness, and towards the everyday, the mundane, the worldly.
    The kids wanted to see this as a vacation, they didn&...

  • a Boring existence in a nutshell...

    Friday, April 18, 2008 | A Frustrating story

      Bright sky blue, what could be better?
    Well, my week could have been. I wish I could turn off the voice in my head that keeps looking for a way to explain my pain to my doctor so that she will find something to help me and kill the pain. Having Lupus and Fibromyalgia can be very frustrating. My legs are getting weaker all the time and it hurts to stand on them, or walk on them...consequentl...

    IT was about an 8 yr. old living wi...

  • Befuddled

    Saturday, December 13, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    I'm just trying to remember whether I did a stint in the shop yesterday afternoon (Friday) - I think I did.  Thursday evening, the BHF charity shop had it's Christmas dinner and it was a good evening out with nice food.  However, we were out until gone 11pm so when I got home, the heating had gone off and the flat was freezing.  Needless to say, I didn't sleep much.&nbs...

  • stomps feet enough is enough

    Sunday, February 1, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I have asked for prayers many times on this board to the point I am sure you are all tired of this and frankly so I am. I am very tired of health issues and life issues. I am having surgery (small minor no big deal) on February the 12. I am not really asking prayer for the surgery. What I am asking prayer for is me. I have never been afraid about my health I have always viewed as one more mountai...

  • It's the little things.....

    Tuesday, March 3, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    It's not necessarily the crisis of life that wears us down, it's the little things....
    The trying to make a new and different something to eat, and then no one (including yourself) likes it!

    It's the cold that goes on and on and on...and the heat bill that goes on and on and o...

  • Spinal Surgeon visit tomorrow.

    Tuesday, July 7, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I am afraid.  Yes I know that God does not give the spirit of fear but of sound mind.  I can quote you lots of verses.  The thing is I have too many bad memories.  Tomorrow I go to the spine surgeon to discuss the ct scan.  Last time I had surgery I was suppose to have someone spend the night with me.  My hubby had a gout attack and he went to the doctor and she sent...
