Hi Janice,
Is the pain getting any less? My kitty, Jumper is having an attitute right now because i'm typing, instead of coming to bed to keep him warm! He's bouncing off the walls! Wow! That's a long time to have a boyfriend! LOL! I hope you & Jesse have a cozy, blessed Christmas anyway. The community center here, sent some people out with boxes of food & toys for the kids to tell us 'welcome' to the neighborhood & wish us a Merry Christmas! God is good & it's nice to know there are good people here. I was really missing my friends in Ca. They got 3 foot of snow! (And they can have it! Brrr!) God bless you my dear!
Wow, I'm glad your doctor caught the pneumonia! That could have been bad! Our little kittys are so loyal & such a comfort, arn't they? Mine have been a little cold & neglected. I've been so busy with the kids & adjusting to the new location & all, but they snuggle up with me at night. Hope you are staying warm & have a nice Christmas! God bless you my friend!
Janice,
i'm glad your surgery went well. I'm sorry you are still in pain. Are you taking the pain meds according to directions? If you wait too long between doses, your body doesn't heal as fast because you are so tense & stressed & tight from the pain. We got to Ark. just before Thanksgiving. 1500 miles, then a lot of situations to cope with that were new & challengeing. I'm glad's grace is enough. The grandkids are sweet, but they are adjusting to us as well. I bet your kitty missed you while you were in the hospital. I hope & pray that you will be on your feet soon & able to go to church & worship! I hadn'r forgotten you, we were just on the road from the 20th until the day before Thanksgiving.
Janice,
So, now I'm confused. Is your surgery this week or has it been postponed untill after the 1 st of the year? Your last discussion said 1/7/08. I know that was a mistake. I know you are in a lot of pain. I'm sorry for not writing down the date, if you gave it to me. God bless & touch you mightily my dear.
Janice,
I will be praying. Our church has started a fast, leading up to the elections, so I'll be fasting also. I know you arn't suppose to talk about it when you fast, but I thought it might make you feel a little more confident in being prayed for! I have a Prayer meeting every Thurs. morning with a few gals also. God bless you sister & send you great encouragement from the throne of grace!
Janice,
Of corse I didn't forget you! I will pray. I know this isn't a 'minor' surgery & that it's crucial to your quality of life that it go well. Unfeeling doctors are a real 'pet peave' of mine! I know they see lots of people, but if they don't have a little 'bedside manner', they should go into plumbling or something.
My cat, Jumper tries to pull that 'let's go to bed now' game with me, (especially if he's cold.) but I'm not THAT ready to be his 'staff'! LOL! If I were single, these two cats would have me wrapped around their little paws! I have been known to give them the last can or tuna or salmon, when we could have used it ourselves, but hey, they're cats, they won't eat crackers & peanut butter! I'm sorry you are in so much pain, that stinks! Love & prayers, Debbie
Fellowship with others and get answers to some of my Biblical questions. Learn more about the Bible to share faith with others.
Interests:
I would like to learn how to give my testimonial to others but I don't know how to "break the ice" when talking about God and what He has done for me.
I live alone with my cat, Jessie, whom I love dearly. I enjoy the simple things in life like wild flowers, sunshine, children's laughter, animals playing, cool breezes.
I'm passionate about...
Learning all I can about Jesus and my walk of faith. Learning to talk/share the Bible with others.
Finding out what God's purpose for my life is.
Listening to & treating others kindly.
My story with God
I learned about God at an early age but did not attend church services on a regular basis. Through the years I realized what a big sinner I had become. I never forgot about God & praying & thanking Him for getting me through some really tough times. I still have a hard time forgiving myself for some of the sins I have committed.
Over the past few years I have been physically unable to attend church services but I do read my Bible daily. I have read the New Testiment different ways, ie writing notes, questions, favorite verses, etc. This time I am reading a chapter a day and meditating on it and asking God what He is trying to get across to me. I seem to be learning much more this way. I am loving God/Jesus more everyday. And I have learned that Jesus loves ME, He cares about what is going on with ME, and He doesn't want me live my life full of anxiety.
I am now yearning for the Word; soaking up everything I can. I feel like Helen Keller when the light bulb finally clicked - I am aggressively listening and learning anything & everything God wants me to understand. I am still patiently waiting for Him to reveal to me what His plan is for my life.
I hope to someday be able to share the Bible with others who don't know Jesus, but I don't know where to begin.
Other stuff about me:
I am retired from the USNavy - loved my career as a Bio-Medical Photographer. I live alone with my cat, Jessie. I have no living relatives. My mother & father divorced when I was 6yrs old and both are deceased. I lost my only brother & sister both to suicide. I am not in good health; facing another spinal surgery next month. I watch Charles Stanley (Baptist minister from Atlanta, GA) on weekends. I am really looking forward to getting to know/share/learn with others on this web site. Basically I am a happy, loving, caring, sharing person who loves God's furry creatures.
