I hear you Connie!
While I love my kids and have not been through what you have, I do know the stress they can put on us!
So, you must do what is right for YOU, and I pray the Lord abundantly blesses you

((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))

I took Gracie out to the park, just finished before it got too hot...I need to take some papers to the lab today and stop at the store.

This is an old photo, but I still love it...some "people" just have simple problems...LOL

 

[angelwind]

This is a view of the park I visited today...we must get there early, best before sunrise, now that it is getting hot

I"m gonna back away from here for a few days.. dont' take it personally.. Mother's day was hard... I have a careless freind who called the day before and gave me the 20 question quiz on my dad and my son... she knows full well it upsets me but she seems to like doing that. I dont' know why I just don't sever ties with her. I have tried but always eventually think it would be okay to call. i"m a tad out of balance right now and it feels like everyone is talking down to me. I need a break from everything social

It was not my intention to talk down to you, and I am sorry if it seemed that way!
I was empathizing with you, as best as I can in trying to understand your situation.
My apologies if I upset you; you have my prayers.

The weather has cleared, so I am off to take a walk with Penny before the next round of showers come in.
My lunch plans for today were canceled, I am done my chores, and we both need to get out. BBL

Gail, please don't take it personally.... I"m not looking for anyone to solve my problems I just want friends... somehow I always come off as needier than that. Yes I am poor but that seems to be what God has chosen for me. I don't understand why but it is what it is...I thought going to college would fix it but it didn't ..Im almost 50. I will work my whole life and I'm okay with that. I try to explain things sometimes and usually people miss my point completely. Sometimes that leaves me feeling exasperated. I think it is probably me (or my fault). I've been told I'm hard to get and that I don't communicate that well. Most people have more than me and well in our capital society more seems to be directly related to better. I am not a stupid person. In fact I'm somewhat intelligent but I remain in the ranks of the have-nots. I think that is where God wants me. I will be fine. but when I start to feel like "less than others" i need to back off a bit. totally not your fault.

ps... last couple weeks have been a bit trying. most of which I really don't want to talk about. my needs are met and my bills are paid... I just need to sort some things out is all. Shirley suggested a while back that I go ahead and write... I might just do that. at worst, it would be therapeutic... I have so many conflicting emotions inside me I could probably come up with some very interesting characters for a fiction book.

We are good...no worries I was just clarifying where I was coming from.

You have my admiration (and yes, concern)....as do all my GE friends.
We all have our personal struggles ~ the Lord has His ways and reasoning (though sometimes I wish He would just give us a hint ).
Thankfully he does give us sufficient grace

I myself, pull back from the forums when things are overwhelming.
It is the only way for me to sort things out.... in prayer and solitude.
Writing helps me also, though I usually destroy it later.

Do as you feel the need, just know you have my love and prayers, and that you are missed when we don't see you

Don't stay away too long...I sorry yesterday was so hard...no body grills me on my life, I get ignored a lot, which is also a kind of abuse....but I play the same old record sometimes...but not like a I used too.

You are loved here, and I hope I haven't hurt your feelings either...

I think the blow with your mother is very, very diffucult, I cannot imagine that kind of pain for you. Wish I could fix it for you.

Hi y'all

Just popping-in, to give a quickie 'update' on my whereabouts and current-activities

So, this morning I attended the 'practice nurse' [appointment]
and tomorrow afternoon [Tuesday] I will pick up my prescription
~for, nicotine patches and aerosol-spray
with which to 'replace' my roll-ups [cigarettes]
and, on Wednesday morning, I have an appointment with a different doctor [same practice]
to consult, re: my ongoing treatment for the chest infection, that I have been diagnosed with

I have had enough foresight, to have, TWO, passworded Admin Accounts
in my computer
With one, I could delete the besieged account, and start over

I have [today] stripped my computer [old account]
of all of my personal stuff and settings and, having saved the 'good stuff' externally
I have also removed my OLD IDENTITY _and 'rebuilt' _a completely new one

~This, was the only way, [remaining] to preserve my operating system
short of, 'formatting' and reinstalling EVERYTHING [again]

I do not [yet] have Windows 7 ...
so I do not have the ability to export my contacts list, into my new email addy
It will be much quicker, to send a standard notice from the old one
to all contacts [BCC] with, the new addy attached
.... So look out, for that email, coming-shortly


All in all, it has been a very busy day [for me] ~mostly, sat here on my butt-end

Happily, most of the heavy 'furniture-shifting', is now behind me
and I can begin to reinstall my editing apps and rehang my pictures, ornaments and curtains



\o/ Phewwwww



your Bro'

Nice to see you Dave
I hope you are feeling somewhat better!
God bless you

I have now had two and a half days, free of 'struggling' for breath
The 30mg per day of Prednisolone ['course' now completed]
and 150mg per day of Amoxicillin, have certainly helped, to relieve my airways

The 'dry cough' stimulus, is now also [intermittent] and also,
thankfully, absent, for most of the day... at it's worst, at-night

Thank you all for your prayers

your Bro'

[servant of Merciful Love]

Praise God ~ You have my continued prayers for a full recovery

I am glad you are better...you have spent a lot of energy with the pc issues...

Thank you Ladies

We do everything _'one step at a time'
Moving forward, as and when we can
Turning, 'left and right', around the obstacles
and 'reversing' back, out of, 'cul-de-sacs', whenever necessary
Escalation, is economically adjusted, according to need

I even looked at a new computer, but I will not pay
almost, TWICE the cash price, to be able to afford it

I have until 2014 to 'save-up'

Sounds as if you have been very busy, Dave, working hard to do things and to improve your ability to them (health). Keep on giving God the glory, my friend!
