36 years!!!!!!

Yesterday was our anniversary.  36!  When did that all happen?  Well, back then we both told God that we meant our words when we said our vows and I guess we really did!  DH still treats me kindly in spite of my handicap that keeps me in the wheelchair, and in spite of his cute not so tiny bald spot.  Tee hee!!!  I guess we are very fortunate!  I had my health while my children were small.  My father joined the church.     And DH and I are politically similar.  There was nothing important enough to fight about for long.  He was and is my very best friend!

Boy, This Is Hard

I have started to write three blogs but they have all disappeared. I then typed one key at a time and all of a sudden the letters seen to change and become meaningless. Sometime the cursor jumps to the middle of the page and puts letters where they don’t belong. My DDs volunteered to help but I still have problems. I have tried typing on Word and copying to the blog and that helps some. It can be really frustrating. I am trying to type on a netbook, maybe, I need to use a larger keyboard.

There has been bad weather in Texas for the last three weeks and I haven’t used my solar oven. My DH tells me that the wheat we soaked for 24 hours was soft and chewy without putting it in hot water. Thank you DH for your research.

I'll try this again another time.

Best Laid Plans

So here I sit in a seat in my daughter's house. How did I get here????? First I remember awakening to my DH's voice saying, "OK, time for blood, Poke yourself. Blood sugar time, first item of business. The blood sugar same as yesterday." How about Good morning!?!
"Come on , get up I have to be at work early today. You can stay with DD#2."
OK, no time for a shower. I can see he is already in his suit. OK,time to bogey! Let's see, first the right leg then the left. Brush teeth, took time to shine sink. toilet stayed clean over night. Gargle...ick, awful stuff. Ran hand down over bed.
'Want your walker or your wheelchair, this morning?' So if you caught my gleaming smile from the car, know that at least I tried to make the bed. Partly done is better than not even tried!

Osama

Yesterday Osama met his death. As an American, I can rejoice with the Navy Seals but am reluctant to allow myself to explode in rapture as many of my fellow Americans have done. Osama has gone to meet God - totally unprepared! What horror will grip his heart when he sees Jesus and realizes there is no time for repentance! Can my poor heart truly rejoice at his fate? I think not. Oh I am thankful for the gift of repentance.

Royal Wedding

This week thirty years ago I rented a television and woke my eldest daughter and pulled her into bed with me to watch the wedding of the century of England’s Charles and Diana…a real princess and a real future King.  There were skies full of fireworks and sparkles lit my little girl`s eyes.  “Oh Mommy, will my wedding be this beautiful?  “Oh yes,” I gushed, and even more so.”  For how could a Temple wedding with eternal vows be anything but the best and most beautiful?

Just two days ago my two eldest girls came to waken me in time to turn on the TV (yes, we now own a television) to see the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton.  Such pomp and riches!  Such glory.  They stayed all night and we watched it together. Once again.my daughters, I PROMISE you that your weddings will be lacking nothing not even the fireworks in the sky.  All you need to do is to follow the Lord’s path ….Marry in the right place to a man who loves God even more than he loves you.
