Ok, the test post showed up...which is good...it's been so long, I forgot. Waiting for a new bed to arrive today. Changing out the "fred flintstone" mattress from upstairs. I'm sure the kids will enjoy this the next time we have an "evacuation" scene.
Work is steady...thank God...so many people out of work it's a bit scarey sometimes. But God has always taken care of us, so I don't doubt he will again.
Getting ready for the pumpkin patch at Asbury. And this year we're going to decorate our new pavillion area. We have a good corner at Space Center Blvd./Genoa Red Bluff. Lots of traffic, so hopefully we get a lot of donations of decorations to make it look nice.
Wow Worship is going strong, Asbury Angels are doing great, we just finished up a Mission home project in SH, and preparing for Rebuilding Houston this weekend, then Pasadena Faith in Action will be here in no time. Not to mention our Thanksgiving Food Project and the Christmas Project also. All in all...a VERY busy time of the year.
Thanks God...for all your help and sending me some awesome volunteers our way!

Wow...been awhile!
Didn't realize it'd been this long since I posted anything...Life just seems to be so busy sometimes...
Lots of things going on these past few months. My baby-girl, little Nickel got married...She's not actually my baby-girl, but it feels like it...she's actually my niece...but she's still mine...I know my sister will share her with me...she's good at sharing...
Nickel married the most perfect guy for her...they just sort of fit together like a fork/knife thing...the wedding was so perfect and my little boys had a blast dancing the night away. Actually, Logan had so much fun, he got overheated and got sick to his stomach, but he said it was worth it...he had fun. And Nickel looked so happy, and Jimbo looked so handsome. They both looked like they were on cloud nine...
And Michael brought his girlfriend, Robyn. Robyn is a long time friend of Naomi's. She's known her so long, I don't actually remember, NOT knowing her...lol...guess that's awhile, isn't it... I'm holding off on doing the whoo=hoo dance for them. I'm super glad they're dating, but I'm holding off for something more permanent...maybe in the future, but I'm trying to be discreet about my whoo-hooing thing. But I'd be thrilled with it... :)
Took a great vacation with Sue/Albert this year. Just the four of us this time. Very relaxing enjoyable time. No rushing, did pretty much nothing...just what we all needed...and it was GREAT !
Had a mishap with a blanket a couple months ago, so had some knee surgery...but it's doing great, just can't do everything I used to do, but I can deal with it...at least I can walk again...didn't realize just HOW much u use your knees til they give out on you...still paying the silly doctor bills though...stupid insurance...you pay high premiums and they don't cover anything...always an excuse as to just WHY it's not covered...stupid insurance.
Scott cut his finger pretty bad...9 stitches, but he's doing really well with it now. And I go do my Oral Surgery thing tomorrow...so we'll probably be paying doctor bills for a long time...once again...stupid insurance ...
So long story short...the doctors seem to be getting all of our money for the time being...just hope the totals aren't so out of the ballpark we have to sell everything we own to pay them...
and now...back to stephanie plum...the indept bounty hunter...(a book serie i'm addicted to right now)

Mother's Day
Mixed emotions about Mother's Day this year...dont' get me wrong it was good...had my youngest grandson, so Naomi/Mike/Logan could go to the Astros game with his ball team...Jack was so fun to have, he always is...he's our little "character" for sure...Logan is my little sweetheart and Jack is our little "character", both sweethearts, but so different...and I luv them both more and more each day...
Went to the cemetary to put flowers out there for my Mom...Jack asked where she was, just pointed to the headstone, he bent down and kissed her headstone...yep...totally lost it then...I'm trying to get used to Mother being gone...and I am...but some days...just don't do it too well...this was one of those days I guess...
My friend, Carolyn had emailed me during the night asking for some help...she wasn't very plain in the mail what was going on, so when I saw Sue, our mutual friend at church, I asked her if she had heard from Carolyn, yes, but her voicemail was confusing...felt stupid with the next step...I pulled my cell phone out of my purse to call Frances to ask her if Carolyn was ok...the whole time I was telling Sue...I'll call Frances, she'll know what's going on and what we need to do...Sue just looked at me...when I looked up, we were both bawling like babies...I think that's when it hit me...Frances was gone...she was really gone...just like Mother was gone...is gone...I remember when Chase and Ed passed away...the first Easter I went and put plastic eggs filled with rocks (so the ants wouldn't be on his grave) in them on his grave...that's when it hit me...Chase was gone...and I didn't want him to be gone...I wanted him back...I wasn't ready to give him up...but I couldn't do anything about it...bawled worse than a baby...still do...
I still miss you Mother...I miss you Chase...Ed...Uncle Bill...I miss you Frances...silly old woman...worry wart...I miss you...luv u all...miss you forever...and bawling like a baby now...glad I'm by myself...but I guess I'm really not...I know God will continue to get me through this...always has and always will...eternally grateful...silly old cry baby woman...

Organization....
yea right...every time I decide to get "organized" I usually wind up, NOT being able to find anything for awhile...hopefully it's going to HELP me this time...
New Cards
I've had some serious computer problems lately, so I'm wayyyyy behind on posting...hopefully I'm up and running with "minimal" problems from now on...but my scanner program doesn't work with my new Vista 64...don't always listen to salespeople...they don't always tell u the ENTIRE story...
SO....long story short...I don't have a scanner program to work with my computer, but I'm hoping Scott's will work, but for now, I'm using my digital camera which I'm NOT good at, so my pictures r a bit blurry...sorry...I'm still learning...I'll try really hard to get better...

Antiobiotics...a wonder drug!
Wow...I have been sick off and on since March now. Got sick, took a LONG time to get better, but did. Then our area flooded 3 times in 3 weeks and we worked almost non-stop. So guess what...sore throat again, I start losing my voice...crud...this hurts...BUT...I'm NOT going to a doctor...just ain't gonna happen.
So we go to our family reunion in Deadwood. Didn't get to see much of anyone, stayed in the trailer trying to sleep it off and wasn't sure just what was going on, so tried to stay clear of people so I wouldn't give it to them. All I heard from people is, you must have the Swine Flu...you better go to the doctor. So I start wondering if maybe that's what it is...start getting a bit nervous about it.
Monday morning arrives, we're back in Houston. Now I can barely talk, hurts to swallow, can't eat much, soft food only and even got to the point that I couldn't swallow chicken noodle soup...by Monday pm, I was trying to be sick at my stomach, but I didn't have anything to throw up, so had the horrible dry-heaves...on top of a terrible sore throat...
Tuesday morning, woke up...or at least crawled out of bed...haven't slept much the last 3 weeks either...I gave in and went to a dr. I don't have Swine Flu, but I do have an infected throat, which has been severely aggravated by SMOKE. And NO...I am not a smoker..but I am around people who are.
Bottom line...last day of antibiotics today...I'm feeling almost back to par now...still get tired kind of easy...and I've learned a very good lesson...stay away from cigarette smoke...it's a KILLER !
Thank you God for antibiotics!
