Surprise, it's me again!!
I am so sorry that it has been so long since I wrote in my journal. Life seems to be so busy and the days are so short that it is hard to get everything done that I want to.
We have had a good summer, it has rained a lot but the temps have been cooler than normal and I like that part.
There have been a few really hot and humid days but mostly 80's and cool nights. I have enjoyed it and been able to get a lot of the yard work done that I usually give up on when it gets too hot.
I have been busy, with work and church activities. Work has picked up somewhat and of course this is my busy time of year. The economy has affected my job some but not all that bad so far. Even though places are not buying a lot of high dollar items, they still have to function with the necessities and that is keeping me busy.
We have had VBS at church and some kids activities this summer, having a Back to School Party on Sunday evening, I can't believe it is time for the kids to return to school. Seems like they were just getting out for summer break. It gets shorter every year and I know soon they will be going year round. It is sad that we want them to grow up so fast. What happened to the days of letting kids be kids, playing and having fun?? Now we push them to do everything and there is little time for them to enjoy childhood.
I do have some really wonderful news. Remember. my daughter in law that had the bad accident last year. I think I told you that she and our son where having trouble conceiving a child, well the procedures have finally worked and did they ever!!! We will be welcoming triplets the end of the year. Yep, I said triplets!!!
We are all really excitied and I am praying that all goes well. She is doing great right now and I hope things continue to go smoothly for them. They have had so many disappointments and heartaches during the last couple of years. Anyway, I think I am busy now, I think life is going to get busier than we can even imagine.
Please pray for them as things are still risky.
I really don't have any other news to write about. Life is full of work, church, and grandkids. What more do I need. LOL
I do want to say thanks for the hugs and messages. It is so good to know that you all still think of me even when I haven't been very faithful to you lately. You truly are some wonderful women and I am so happy to have you all in my life. Thanks for you love and support. I think of you often and promise to try to check in more regularly.
Have a great day and remember to look for those blessings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, here it is Wednesday already. My, how the days are flying by!
It is a cloudy, rainy day here but warm. Spring has arrived in my part of the world. It has been warm now for several days, we have had a few chilly breaks in the middle but all in all the weather has been nice. I have flowers popping their heads through the ground and my Easter lillies are blooming, the lilac has lots of big buds on it and I hope we don't have freeze berfore it blooms. I love the smell of the lilacs and they are so pretty. So for the most part, I think winter has passed. I know we will still have some cold spells but they won't last long.
Not much new and exciting going on with me. I have been working, taking care of my household duties and staying busy with Awana and church functions. Of course the grandkids are in there too. They are part of my busy days. lol
Our granddaughter got her driver permit last week and she is so excitied. She is not like most teens and wants to drive all the time but she is getting her liscence and that is a good thing, I know how hard it is to not be able to go when you want to, since I don't drive, I have tried to encourage her to.
I had my regular doctor's appointment last week and he is suggesting a colonostopy. I have an appointment to see a doctor for that in April, not looking forward to it but I do know it is important. So that is the next big thing going on with me. lol
I hope you are all doing well, I am so sorry that I have not been able to be here as much lately, the days are just too short and my time runs out. lol I do think of you often and hope you are doing ok. I am going now to check on you, if ds isn't too slow that is. Is anyone else having trouble with it taking so long to get from one page to the next on here? It is so frustrating!!
Well, off to get the day moving, hope yours is great!

Yes, Delores! DS is very slow. I've also noticed that I have sent messages or hugs to people and part of what I typed in is missing when they receive it. It has caused me some troubles, as what we say can hinge on a noun or a very, and if it's left out of the sentence, you can hurt someone's feelings. Very disturbing to me. I'll see how this message comes out to you!
Glad you are busy with the grandkids and Awana. You have a full life. That's a wonderful blessed thing!! Love every minute of it!
Glad your weather is good. I'm looking forward to Spring myself. My allergy nose has kicked in, but it isn't warm yet....so we wait!! sigh......
Hugssssssssssssss

Hi Delores, I am so far behind in reading my friends journals, I haven't been doing all that well from last weekend's shock. I still can't believe I fainted, the only other time that has happen to me was at my mom's funeral.
You sound busy but happy! God has blessed you with a wonderful family!
Yes, I find DS slow at times. Strange things happen here!! I'm typing away and all of the sudden to shoots to the bottom of the page or it get lost out there in cyber space somewhere!! SPOOKY!! LOL
I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
love ya, Cathy

Happy Wednesday to all!!!!!
It is a beautiful morning here, warm, sunny and really looking like Spring has arrived!! I know it can change quickly so I will enjoy today while it is here.
I am not sure what happens to my days anymore, I get up and the next thing you know it is time to go to bed again. I guess I have slowed some but I think that is only part of the problem. The days just seem to be so full and there isn't time left over for the extra things we want to do. I am not sure what I want to give up but it may be time to shed some of the activities that are keeping me so busy. I do like staying busy though.
The week has been pretty much normal for me so far, work, home, church, family. All the things I love!!!!!! I have a doctor's appointment today so it will be another busy one, then we have our small group tonight and I always look forward to that. We have been studing Revelations and the end times. It is a bit deep and I tend to get lost during some of it but all in all it is a good study.
Not much in the way of excitment to write about but wanted to let you know I am still kicking, just not too high. lol
I miss visiting with you all each day but please know that even when I am not here, I am thinking of you and praying God's riches blessings on each of you.

The days just seem to melt together afer a while. Maybe it is our age!!!
We did a study in Revelations a while bck and it was deep as well. I had a really hard time grasping some of it. but the parts I did understand were good and really made me stop and realize we are indeed in the end times.
We miss you as well each day but anymore I don't seem to make it daily either!!! Hopefully I can do better.
Have a great afternoon and enjoy the great weather. I wish I was home instead of here today. but at least the day is going fast.
Love ya
Debbie

Nice to hear from your Delores!!
Revelations is a tough study....always. It's about a vision, so it's probably visualized differently for all of us. All the sybolism is confusing. Poor John, out there on Patmos writting all this stuff down. WHOA! What a job.
But it does seem to be nearing the end times and right now Revelations is the book everyone is reading!! Looking forward to the second coming!!! Yesssssss!!
You have a good day busy lady!!!

I was so happy to see a journal from you today!! I have missed you but I do understand that life gets really busy, especially when you are working. There doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day at times.
I'm so happy for your son & his wife. Is this there first? Triplets, wow you all will be really busy soon!! You must be excited!!
My granddaughter Faith Marie is a beautiful little one. I just love holding her & stare at her cute liile face!! It's fun and so nice to pass back to the parents when the diaper needs changing!! lol

Triplets!!! She is going to be so busy. That is so exciting! Welcome back, and I'm glad you've been having a good summer. We could use some of your rain and cooler weather, it's been hot here, the past few days a bit cooler.
Welcome back!
