Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

My daughter went with me to my brother's shop yesterday afternoon to unload the parts-Camaro I bought off of the rollback truck. Then we sorted through some of the parts that had already been removed from the car. She was a lot of help, and I was glad that she can say she's been a part of the project, too. I hope she'll do more with us on the car. She's more of a ballet/ballerina girly-girl, but she got greasy with me. She must really love her daddy!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

That's great!!!

I always loved hanging out with my dad. We did a lot together when I was growing up. I am now a grandma and he's a great grandpa, we still hang out! Going to the air shows is our favorite thing to do together and visiting all air museums. Wayne joins us, of course, he loves that stuff too! My mom don't get into that kind of thing though.

I have so many great memories with my dad. Keep that up with your daughter, she will be so grateful for it when she grows up! I know I am!

Good morning, everyone. How are you all? I am doing okay. Just sitting here with the kids, letting DH sleep in. He's been working a lot, so I figured he deserves it.

Yesterday was my day off, so I start back tonight, for my first of 4 days. I'm not sure what's been going on with me lately, I sort feel like I am a slump. I thought this I wasn't going to get the "Winter Blues" and I'm not even sure if that's what it is, since winter will soon be over.

A lot is going on with a lot of my friends/co-workers right now. I know I told you about the one with cancer, but two of my friends, both are pregnant and one just found out she has a mass on her adrenal gland. She has to have emergency surgery. It can be very serious. If it would be cancer, I don't know if they will do chemo or radiation or not. My other friend, she just found her baby has a hole in it's heart, the worst kind of all and they also think the baby has Down Syndrome. They aren't concerned about the Down's, which they are very loving parents, but very concerned about the hole.

There is also another issue going on at work with one of my friends, which I really don't want to talk about on here, but it I think that is the thing, that is bugging me the most. All of the things, wrapped in one, just have me worried and have me praying for everyone that I just sort of feel "blah." I haven't been doing a whole lot extra, except for stuff with DH and the kids.

Tell me...does this sound stupid or normal. I know God only gives us things with can handle. I just sometimes don't understand why things happen the way they do, but as I said, I know he gives us what we can handle.

Sorry for the somber post, but I needed some advice. Make it a great day! Thinking of all of you and praying for all of you who needs it! God Bless and talk soon! Keep smiling!

I'm sorry to hear that you have so much happening around you right now and that it is causing you to feel down. I'll keep them in my prayers.

1 Corinthians 10:13
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

The key to this verse is that it says that god will create a way for you to escape. It doesn't say that you can do it on your own though. Sometimes it requires the help of others.

Basically what I'm saying is make sure that you aren't holding everything inside. Talk to your hubby or someone else about everything that is going on. It might help you make sense of what is going on. Sometimes though things just don't make sense and you just have to trust that there is some greater plan in place that we can't understand.

As mentioned before, I have my doctor's appointment today. It may be my final appointment. I will discuss the final steps of my rehab today. My knee currently has very little restrictions. It really only hurts when I completely flex it while standing. Still, a PRP injection remains a possibility. One that I am ultimately considering if it does, indeed, mean I am completely healed in less than two months.!

Good Luck today!!!!

Very good!

Hang in there, Sugar. We all go through things and what Made has said is great advice.

You know you can come here for some cheering up! I know it always makes me happy!!!

(((Sugar))) sending hugs your way! I think we all do go through feeling like this sometimes, but you have a lot on your plate! I hate it when there are "bad" things going on around you & there is nothing you can do, or you don't know what to do! Hang in there! Keeping you in my thoughts & prayers!

I am going with my Mom, sister, friends to see Safe Haven tonight. Looking forward to it!!! POPCORN SUPPER! YUM!!! :grin:

Make it a great day everyone!

Hey Made, I watched that video you posted about Binger being the possible customer for that coffee. That is a lot of caffeine!!! I would think your heart rate would go way up drinking that. Yikes!

I noticed in the comments that the guy said he drank it over a couple of days. If you drank that all at once you would definitely end up in the hospital getting your heart shocked back to a normal rhythm.


Then again, if you already drink coffee by the pot all day long like Binger, your body may be use to that much caffeine.

Thanks, Made. I appreciate you including that bible versus. DH and I do talk about things, very frequently, and we both agree that that we are very thankful, for what God has given us, but I still hate to see so many people have pain and suffering and I guess it's just been so hard lately, since its hitting so close to home.

Enjoy! I am looking to that movie when it comes out on DVD. I love his books. I have it on my Nook to read, but haven't yet. Movie popcorn is my favorite. Yum!

Sometimes though things just don't make sense and you just have to trust that there is some greater plan in place that we can't understand.

In one of my favorite books, the narrator puts it this way:

"I know He sees it bigger than we do, and maybe He is working at something that isn't finished yet."

The number of times in my life that something hard to bear opened the way for something good later makes me believe that.

Thanks, Shannon. I can hardly wait. I ordered a coupon organizer that is the best I have seen. Coupled with Tega's info, I am going to become a couponing queen!

Rebel, I certainly hope you & Kandace are feeling much better very soon.

made, I am still keeping your Mom in my prayers & I pray the results on the last test comes back good.

Star, I must have missed the info on your job interview but I pray the best outcome for you.

Seawaters, I will be getting in touch w/ you when the coupon lady meets me w/ the coupon book. will need the address info & stuff.

xmas, hope all the projects went well.

Meceka, I am praying for you & Mouse.

Ryan, I hope you & your family have a wonderful time on vaca & make lots o fnew memories.


good morning everyone! I had gotten a lady to work for me yesterday since it was only a 1/2 day. I was so tired from last week & felt as though I had no time to rest. boss texted me yesterday & said I could be on call today also since we had no orders. No complaints here, yaay. my body is still screaming in agony, lol.

hope today finds everyone doing well!

 

[made582]

Good Morning MMC!!! It's going to be a cool day here with snow, sleet, and freezing rain arriving tonight. Fun. At least we are supposed to get up to the mid 40's tomorrow so the ice won't stay around long. It's just going to be a matter of getting everyone to work tomorrow morning without wrecking. My big plan for today is to sit in the recliner and watch racing all afternoon. Maybe I'll make some brownies to snack on during the races. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think there was enough caffeine in that coffee for Binger. Binger would probably fall asleep after drinking that. =)
