I'm just an ordinary person, common as an ol' shoe, and if you ever meet me you'll know it right off. I've lived a life filled with struggles, trials and failures, and for many years I was on again, off again with the Lord. BUT He continued to work with me. He covered me, He received me over and over again and loved me always. Finally, at the age of 51, my situation and circumstances became unbearable. I had reached suicidal thoughts. My only hope was in Christ and I grabbed onto Him and haven't let go since. Living is still not easy, but God gets me through the valleys. | | Likes: | God; my daughters; my 2 dogs; my cat; solitude; a good cup of coffee first thing in the morning; earrings; polished nails; comfy clothes; anything sweet... | | Dislikes: | Anyone who abuses; deception; disloyalty; arrogance; racism; butter beans ;) |
:)Change is here...
Some time back I posted an entry titled
"A Reflection on Change".
Now I'm going to attempt to tell you, my dear blog :) ... and blog friends, all about the changes that have happened in my life. Since we already know how good and faithful God is I'll just go on to the heart of what He has brought about. All of you who know me from many entries past know that I left an extremely bad "situation" in April of 2008. That's when I moved into my own little house that I had been preparing for about 4 years. At that time I guess I was somewhat overwhelmed with my newfound peace, harmony...
Change is here...Hallelujah!

Ho hum
So far I haven't done much in preparation for Christmas this year. I've sent gift cards to g'kids and daughters up in Illinois and this year I did donations to World Vision for 2 couples who are close friends. Both couples donated 2 ducks to a family in need somewhere in the world.
I'm planning to go visit Charles and do some "goody making" over there sometime this week. He has a 5 yo g'g'son who will be spending some time with us during the Christmas holidays so we do need Christmas "goodies".
We went to my churches Christmas production this past Saturday evening. It was...
Life goes on...
I've been silent a very long time, haven't I? I really don't have a good reason, and all I can say is that my life has moved along with many surprises, and many ups and downs. I continue to live and learn even at 62 yo. It's great, I love it.
The last couple of years have not been easy. I continued to work at the law office part time and just barely made it from week to week. Finally on my last birthday I signed up for my Social Security. It turned out that I am better off on that than if I continue trying to work. Praise God!!!
I also met a wonderful Christian gentleman. Charles...
