A good day (Tuesday, January 24, 2006 - 4:29:56 PM) [Post a Comment]

Today has been a good day.  I have felt good and my day was productive.  Friends came for tai chi class this morning.  The rest of the morning i rested and waited for a new friend to come and help me with errands around town.  Wow we accomplished a good deal: went to hancocks where i picked up two more sets of large circuluar needles and some canvas fabric, went to the vet, went to hastings for origami paper but they where out of the kind i wanted; went to the film Film master and picked up 10 film clear canisters for a project that Don is up to that has come about because of his interest LED's; and dropped off a pile of stuff to His House. 
Feels so good to be caught up a little. 

With the new needles in hand i have started a shawl for a friend. It is wild yarn and a wild shade of colors.  The yarn is called saucy lady.   

Ben, my cat, is trying to shove me out of the chair.  He has manageed to take over most of the space. 

The tea kettle is whisleing at me, smileing, chat later.

reordering life (Wednesday, January 18, 2006 - 6:44:08 PM) [Post a Comment]

I am one to take care of stuff myself; i like it that way. I know the job is done the Carolaina way which makes me happy.  But I need help, so i am calling in the troops and the big guns.  I called in a housekeeper ...

I started this intry yesterday and not sure where i was going with it. 
A friend came by and we crocheted and talked about mircles. 

Today has been interesing from the start.  Have you ever received a gift that was really big?  Well i have been offered a really big gift and i accepted.  I sit here in shock over the kindness and wonder how do i repay such kindness.  And i am worring over accepting the gift.  Should i have?  And what kind of balance does this now give to the friendship?  i am reflecting at the spirital movement behind this and the recesent advents of this week. I alwasy ask why and what does this mean; hopeing for some solid anwsers from high above.
 
b/  i have a tapasty throw on the back of the sofa; hobs , a rotton cute cat, is tunneling through it like a kid playing in a tent.

God is giving me little test to try and past since i am not doing to well with the big test.
We are working on trusting each other. Beth Moore has a good study on "Beliving God". 
Perhaps if i can accept gifts from a friend then i will accept gifts from God.  It is hard for me to accept gifts from others; i have always been then one to give. It seems odd to receive such a gift.  I wonder why?

the rupture from the oviran cyst is healing and the worst is over.  I got out today; a frined picked me up for bible class.

When it rains it pours (Monday, January 16, 2006 - 9:32:39 AM) [Post a Comment]

Over the weekend ,Saturday, the tolet stopped up and it took an act of being upset to get the nessessary phone call made for a plummer to come out Monday.   Saturday i am not feeling well, nothing new, but feeling worse.... I have an overian cysyt burst.  Yes it hurts. My whole body hurts and esp. my left abdomen where an overy had an little blow up.  Hopefully though with the dispersion of this cyst it will be a little quiter down there. 

I am not able to have tia chi class this week.
Hopefully i will be up to it next week. 

At the rate the day is going I am going to have a hissy fit before it is over.  I am so not happy and i want somethings done that will make me happy.

THen i find the Precious, Don's norweigen forest cat, has pooped on the bed.  She has been having behavioural issues and does not want to use the little box.  She has been going in Don' Den, but today she pooped on the bed.  I am so mad i want to get rid of her... put unlikely since i have a very stong commentment to taking care of the rotten thing.  She has done this in the past enough that we have to keep a throw on the bed that covers the beautiful bedspread in the nicely decorated bedroom.  Slowly my house is being turned into a dump. There is more to this story...  Between ratty furnature , cats clawing and furing and disrepair.... I'll talk to you guys when i am feeling better.....i am going to go knitt and calm myself down...

no one for miles around and the tolet stops up (Saturday, January 14, 2006 - 5:38:56 PM) [Post a Comment]

Don had to work this Saturday.  This afternoon a friend was supost to come by and pick me up but they never showed up.  I took a nap.   The toliet stopped up so i preceded to try and unstop it with a plunger.  The plunger is broken so i debate weither to walk across the street to the dollar store. I am not supost to walk across the street unsupervised...But it will be hours before Don is home and i am sure i will need use of the tolet before his return.  I made it across the street and back  with a plunger.  The plunging did not work and it is too dark now for me to go back to the store for drano.  Thank goodness for an oldfashion chamber pot.

Reading Map Directions; God's Direction (Saturday, January 14, 2006 - 11:21:59 AM) [Post a Comment]

I really love the big blessing from God, but sometimes it is those little ones that have the most impact and really get my attention.  God has put people in my life that are just so wonderful. He has also brought a wonderful group of ladies into my life that are apart of the prayer shawl ministry.  One of them, a Ms. Downs, is re-teacing me to knitt.  It is so thrilling the way she is teaching me to knitt and the fellowship is just an outpouring of God's love and healing.

It is interesting to me how God has orgranized some of the current events of our lives to help us.  It is so easy to become frustrated becasue I feel I have some moving and shaking to be doing.  But perhaps God Corners us where we have to go (be shoved) in the direction he wants us to go.  It is so hard to know and see what He wants sometimes.  That is where we need to practice being intuned to HIS WILL and HIS WAYS.  He has alot of wills and ways for us that need serious studying.

Perhaps if we studyied HIS will and ways it would be easier to decern what He wants us to do.  Just like studying a map to go someplace we have to know how to read a map and the signs.  If we want to know what God's directions are we need to understand what His wills and ways are and aply them to our lives.
