My new venture

I have always wanted to write a book on grief. I have experience just about every kind. Stillbirth, cancer, suicide, car accident, Alzheimer's, osteo perosis/pnumonia,

I am going to start researching to get my thoughts together. Here are the books I checked out from the library today.

Our Summer

We had such a fun summer. Picnics in June, camping in July, motorcycle runs in August, and a long awaited family reunion/aunt and uncle 50th wedding anniversary.

Oh and baby showers galore! Three new babies. All boys. Jack Roscoe, Johnathan Duane, and Shawn Michael. All adorable. Oh the baby lust lately..

This is a picture of Wyatt heading off to play with cousins at the reunion. What a great summer! I am going to miss it :(

Getting back to Blogging

I am back after a bit of a hiatus. We are moved in. Will send pictures when I get everything where I want it.

Still trying to sell the old house. No luck. We want $18,000 had an offer today for $10,500. We need $18,000. $16,500 to pay off the mortgage and $1,500 to pay the realtor. I would like to get $25,000 with all the work we put into it. Laminate flooring, appliances, my huge kitchen (I'm gonna miss it) Here are some pictures. If you feel led, please pray for a fast and easy sale.....

Pray for Mei Ling
A friend of mine from Texas, Pat, just became a Grandma on April 27th. Her daughter, Melanie and son-in-law, Casimir are so thrilled with their new baby girl, Mei Ling. Mei Ling has had some problems since she was born. She has 3 small holes in heart that they say will heal up, but it is causing her to breathe so fast that they won't let her nurse or take a bottle because she might aspirate the milk. She is in the NICU of a hospital there in Texas. Pat has asked people if we will post her picture and ask for prayer for them. This is my favorite picture of Mei Ling and the first one I believe I saw. They were trying to give her a bottle to help with her low blood sugar. She does not look to happy about that. Isn't she precious? Please pray for Mei Ling.

At a Stand Still

We are at a stand still. With hubby not working and me only working part time the money flow is nill :( The pipes froze because of no heat up there. So we have no idea when we will get it done. I am so upset. I wish it was over. I hate this house so bad. Seven of us in a 3 bedroom trailer stinks!

Please if you are the praying kind do so for us.

My Happenings Today

I started my new job at Country Cupboard last Wednesday. (www.countrycupboardinc.com) Friday the founder Daniel Baylor
(http://www.dailyitem.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070203/NEWS/702030322 ) passed away Friday :( I never got to meet this wonderful man. Today was his funeral. What a celebration of this wonderful man's life! He done so much in his long life. There was singing, a wonderful eulogy from his daughter Carole and granddaughter Nici. I got such an urge to go after my dreams. His saying was "where there is an idea, the money will flow"

The service was wonderful. I have found my two favorite hymns. On Eagle's Wings and Blessed Assurance. They are so beautiful.

I went to the restaurant for the food and gathering after. I volunteered to help clean up and such. The stories I heard about Dan. Wow! I sure feel bad for never having a chance to meet him :(

Getting closer

Well today we got my mom's apartment primered. Audrey's room is primered all but a corner that needs some putty work. We have our bathroom, my mom's bathroom and her bedroom left to mud, sand and primer. We have my mom's ceiling, diningroom ceiling, hallway ceiling and Audrey's ceiling.

I am so excited! We are getting closer :)
