Scripture & Prayer

Matthew 16:24-25. Then Jesus told his diciples, "if any want ot become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. for those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose thier life for my sake will find it."

Behold I do not give lectures or a little charity. When I give I give myself. Walt Whitman

Lord we have so much to be thankful for and so many we need to lift up in prayer. We know you are all powerful and can meet the needs of each and every individual that weighs heavely on my heart. Comfort, bless those that need it. Heal those that need healing Lord. Lord I thank you for watching over me. My fall could have been much worse then it was, but you protected me (once again) and I again am so thankful that you are a part of my life. Thank you for the dizzy spells being small ones and not large ones. Guide the doctors as they try to decipher what keeps causing these incidents and Lord bless my husband. He is truly a comfort and blessing to me. I truly, truly appreciate how much he puts himself out there for me.

I thank you for all you do. In your name I pray AMEN!!

Updates

Don't hurry God. The problems that we think may drown us today could be the stepping-stones to greater spiritual strength tomorrow.

Well I think I may be up and moving for good now. Yippee. First few days home from the hospitol all I wanted to do was sleep and I decided my body knew what was best so I slept, except for meal time and a couple hours up to check my emails.

The pain in my left leg has let up alot and the swelling is starting to mimalize, although I'm sure If I stay sitting up to long the swelling will begin again.

Thanks to a wonderful friend. (Bless you Marsha), I did not have to worry about cooking or eating out or worrying about my husband posioning me with his cooking. She one evening dropped off Spaghetti with garlic bread and salad and german chocolate cake. She brought so much over we got three good meals out of it. And it was YUMMMY for my TUMMY!!!

Hubby has been plugging away at his programming, must be tough to work from home and sit in your robe to do your job. He is getting to spoiled and won't know what to do when he has to go back to the office. Cyndiloo is in 7th heaven, she has two of her three favorite people at her beck and call and is really lapping it up.

In the crocheting world. I have about 6 comfortghan squares to get made in various colors and sizes for various people. One who's cousins son who took his life. So tragic, another who if fighting the battle of breast cancer and the blanket will comfort & warm her while she is going through her treatments. A couple more for stroke victims, so that they can recieve warmth and comfort as well. We had about a week where this need seemed to almost come to a stop. But it is back in full swing. Crocheting one or two little squares is nothing, when it gives comfort and blessing to someone who is need of it. I assure you had I had a comfortghan while in the hospitol I would have been cuddling up with it. Of course its one of those things you never think to ask for yourself or do for yourself.

I also still have my shawl to finish for my swap partner. I'm 6 rows into it. I may have made it larger then needed, but she will be able to wrap herself up in and keep the evening chill off of her arms. The design is a slow design and I won't be wipping this out anytime soon.

I think I have the idea's going for my other swap partner. Its all about the letter "A" this month. Crochet or hand make something using the letter "A". I've found a few little extra things that will be fun to add to her box when its time to send it out. Then I have a baby blanket to finish up, its 3/4 of the way done and will be so soft and cuddly. Then I need to return to sashas gift, I keep putting this one on the back burner. I'm not as happy with it as I thought I would be. The 4th block design has me stumped.

Well thats it for the moment. I'm sure i'll be back.

I'm back

Hello all if you missed me I'm back. I had a nasty fall over the weekend and had to spend a couple of days in the hospitol. I'm feeling somewhat better. The problem causing the fall (a dizzy spell and pain in my left leg) has not been figured out. The swelling and pain in my left leg and the pain is just tremendous. I'm in a please "don't touch" my calf stage. All the laying down in the world doesn't seem to eliminate the swelling and neither are the water pills. I'm taking way to much pain medication in my opinion for the pain and hope it doesn't increase or get worse. I want to do more then sleep all the time.

I may be a real hit and miss with my blog for a few days.

If your reading this keep me in your prayers.
