I have ALWAYS known that God IS love. This is an eternal truth.
God is not a "maybe". He is not a "was". God IS. Right here, right now, where ever you are, God IS!
If you cannot see Him, it's because you've got your back turned.
If you cannot feel Him, it's because you've cloaked yourself in something other than His Goodness.
If you cannot hear Him, it's because you've made the choice to not hear Him.
When asked who he was, God answered, "I AM".
God IS!
Amen.

Sometimes I wonder.........
What would you say if I said I was cold and hungry............... More important, what would you do?

My neighbors are trying to kill me.
Yup, you saw exactly what you think you saw. My neighbors have been systematically, purposefully, methodically, covertly trying to kill me. They think I cannot see through their subtle actions. They think I am blissfully unaware of the hidden danger. THEY ARE WRONG. I see and feel fully the effects of their actions. Why, oh why, did they ever plant hyacinths?????
For those of you who didn't notice, it's allergy season, don'tcha know?
PS: I may have over-exagerated. They ARE trying to kill me, but.............. I seriously, in more more rational, less tissue-ful moments, think that they are completely unaware of the havoc they have wreaked.

WHY???
Can anyone tell me why on God's green earth? You've got a cup of coffee. You've drunk as much as you want. You take the cup to the kitchen counter. (Said counter is adjacent to the sink.) WHY would you not DUMP OUT that little bit that you did not want??? Why just set the cup on the counter and walk away? Did you intend to come back later and drink it? Tomorrow? Next weekend? If so, don't leave it by my sink. If not DUMP it OUT! (Teresa, this means you!)
P.S. I am VERY easy to get along with. :-)

Stand-out Memories of 2007
As the new year approaches, I have been thinking about the happenings of this past year. Here are two:
1) Up there with the most favorite: Our washer went on the fritz. My husband (finally) decided to take a look at it. He came to the conclusion that he needed to go to the web site for consultation. It seemed as though something was missing. While he was on the computer, I got behind the washer, found the hose he thought was missing, and re-attached it. ME!!! I FIXED THE WASHER!!! I will not let the poor man forget about that until dementia, either his, or mine sets in. :-)
2) Least favorite: My daughter getting hit by a car. My husband and I were at work. We beat the ambulance to the hospital. When they finally let me see her, it was sickening. Her right fib/tib were broken. Her leg was bent at a 45 degree angle in a place that was not meant to bend. I went with her for x-rays. They don't sedate for this. Boy, can that girl scream. She let them know in no uncertain terms that they were not allowed to touch it or move it. Seriously. I have NEVER seen her so ferocious. The worst part of that was when they had to pick the leg up to get a slide underneath. After MANY visits to the ortho, having it set 4 times, physical therapy, and lots of "stuff" that came along with the incident (There's tons more I could say, but I would just sit here and start bawling. Some days I think I have post-traumatic stress. Thank God for the support of our awesome family!), the girl has a couple of leg bones that will be stronger than any of the other bones in her body.
I still wake up in the night sometimes because I can hear her screaming.
On the other hand, she has healed quite well, and is excited to be able to take gym next semester. We still need to take it easy for another six months or so, but all's well.
Those are two of the things that stand out for me. What about you?

Something I didn't know:
Even though it's not sugar-free, it's okay for me to eat a piece of cake................as long as my 8 year old son eats the frosting off the top first.

Did you miss me?!?!!
Wow! I have been out of the loop, off the radar, missing in action for two weeks. OUCH!!! Let me tell you what happened.
I sent payment to our ISP. Four days later, no television, no internet. Waaahhhhhhh!!! I called the cable company. I ever so kindly enquired as to if they received payment (It was in full, might I say). They insisted no they hadn't. I said, "I sent $ XXX.xx four days ago. You cut off our service. Can we get it turned back on?" The person-on-the-other-end said, "If you would send us $70.00 for connection fee, we can turn it back on for you." I said, "I cannot say what my husband told me to tell you to do to yourself, but THANKS FOR NOTHING!!!!!" click
We are all set now, but it did take twelve days to get set up.
I have to tell you all, I missed you! I missed blog reading. I found some at work, but I don't have the same Favorites folder at work that I have here at home. (I AM supposed to work there, after all.)
More to come. I just had to get that out of my system.
Thank you very much. You're beautiful!
