JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Janet: Carol, I am just reading this.  So sorry for your loss, glad your beloved Don knew the Lord and you have the assurance of his eternity  and that you WILL see him again.  Much love to you.  Janet 2022-06-18, 08:49:36

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

Janet...
...my thoughts will be with you as you take your test, my two - three scans take place 9.15 and 9.30 am tomorrow morning, i have arranged a taxi, hope he - she can cope well with someone who has Multiple Sclerosis, taxi driver will not stay with me so will have to book a return when all is done...Janet, not sure i like the sound of your " nuclear "

... Yes you are right, no fun in this aging process, worse when you lose your life partner and you now have to go it alone having these tests, something i have now got to get used of...a part of my life i was not prepared for..

Judy how id Rambo do with his surgery.

Jackie I have that piece playing as I type this message. I love the Pan Pipe and Amazing Grace is my favorite song. I often sing it as I am walking Miss Freckles.

Janet, I am trying to downsize a much as possibly so Gilbert won't have much to do when I am gone.

Since my  radiant heat cook top shorted out, I have been using my various appliances to cook. I don;t even need a stove except the oven for things that are too large for my toaster oven.  I love may Air Fryer, last night I made something I haven't had in  a long time. Fried Potatoes, onions and sliced hotdogs. I told Keith is was a poor mans meal, that was the first time I even cooked that for him or even in years. But it is something that I've always liked and so do my kids.

Well back to sorting through boxes of "stuff" LOL

Well after my preparations and to take alongs with me - Ultrasound Scan appointment letters - water, ( for one scan i need a full bladder, the other scan i need an empty bladder ) - taxi fare - mobile phone - the right clothes, spare TENA pads, knickers etc etc, not forgetting my rollator, i made it to my Ultrasound appointments in one piece, now back home but oh, how my MS body has taken another turn, the nerves are going through my body ten to the dozen, struggling to move my body from a to b...Will have to wait a few days for the scan results via sonographer - local GP doctor, thankfully all done inside the same Surgery, thank the Lord, not done inside a hospital, people are dying in those, our UK covid deaths, which are at their all-time high...

Janet...
... are you any nearer to finding out your scan result from yesterday or, is it still playing our waiting game...there is only so much they can tell us at the time they are doing them...

I have a whole plastic  trash bag full of shoes from the bottom of Keith's closet to also take to goodwill.Next will be a bunch of his clothe that he never wears, I already cleaned out my closet.

Janet:  Thank you for your hug  <3 .  Many hugs needed these days.  I want to mention your almost dizzy episodes - neighbors and friends have much of the same experience.  As do I and Don.  We believe it is stress from this forced living without our close contacts.  Probably listening to the news isn't very healthful either.  Yes, I strongly believe in prayer - Let go, Let God.  Take care

UK BBC news this morning, mentioned an incident of where there has been extensive flooding showing the scenes, it is now also been made aware to us that this also involves the laboratory where they are producing - storing our Oxford AstraZenica vaccinations Corona Virus, they have been up all night, saying this is a very difficult time, that we dont lose the vaccinations, a disastrous situation adverted there, which would have clearly had an impact on the Corona Virus vaccinations. "

Just terrifying to think how close they - we were, of it all being destroyed..

Sandbags were drawn in and have successfully to protect those supplies of Oxford AstraZenica...Told they were able to act quickly to secure the site...Spokesperson said, concerns of flooding from the river that it was not the production line but the storage, and without hesitation they put resources in there, pumps-sandbags, the staff worked tirelessly through the night to divert it, and it was successful, will be monitoring it through the day...Thank you God

This was a week of disaster!  Tuesday was surgery all went well and Rambo is doing well.  On meds both pain and antibiotics for 10 days.
In the afternoon John had bus trouble, I added his kids to my lot and took them all home.  John's kids were happy to see me, I know them from last year!
Wednesday my bus wouldn't start..... So we moved cars around and he weaseled his way around my bus and headed out, to do his run and part of mine. The mechanic came took my bus after starting it, I did one road on his run and the kids got to school.  We went in to the bus yard to get our busses, after appointments in North Bay. They were not ready. So that meant another afternoon with spares. At 2:00 we left to get me to mu spare and it wouldn't start......   The mechanic brought my bus back and off I go, late for both schools..... Home late and exhausted.  Today Thursday All is good.  I was thinking that I may have been slowed down (by the Almighty) to avoid something....I may never know!  Thank you LORD!

Today we have snow yet again.  There are schools closed because of how bad the weather is in some areas.... That is typical life here in the NEast.  The areas affected are commonly hit by lake effect snow.  That can be brutal!

We are constantly being barraged by news; covid, government corruption, pedophilia, garbage and dirt.  I am constantly thinking we are close to the end.  This has been prophesied about in many places in the Bible.  There are so many Christians being brutally murdered worldwide yet the Bible tells of this in Revelation 6:9-10     
And when the Lamb opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony they had upheld. And they cried out in a loud voice, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, until You avenge our blood and judge those who dwell upon the earth?"...

All I can say is Even so come LORD Jesus!


Carol

Judy:  Sorry for your day of troubles.  It will all work out - so my mother always said and she was right.  I hope you have time to relax, put your feet up and take a deep breath.  I couldn't do what you do - transporting precious children and then there is the weather. 

We live such a different life now with paying attention to our safety - I certainly hope all the prayers going up will make a difference and we can get back to normal living.  I miss visiting most of all - and not hugging the grands.  Thankful to just pet the dogs when they visit. 

Sweet dreams everyone - most of you are already asleep.  ;) /size]

Judy...
... you are right, we are constantly barraged with news, and not good news on our tv's...this is becoming a sad and very disturbing world, sleaze-tragedy's...we are even having crooks taking advantage of our Covid situation, these people are the lowest of the lowest, the only thing that is important to them is money money, money, they have no scruples as to who they hurt in getting it, I hope God deals with them in His way....

Best not to watch our doom and gloom news channels, all negatives, very little positives.... put some good comedy on instead...I watch the old repeats of Everybody Loves Raymond and Frasier, i dont care how many times i have watched these repeats, if they give me that feel good factor and still give me a laugh, there is very little else for me to laugh or smile about that has-is going on with my life...

We must stop watching out news channels, for our own sanity......

Good morning!  Jackie, you are 100% right when you say we must stop watching the lame stream media, which feeds us lies day and night!  I watch Newsmax, One America News and another channel (can't recall name just now)which give us  the TRUTH. Just the truth of what's happening is depressing enough, without the added lies!

Judy, the verses you gave are about the tribulation saints who were beheaded in the tribulation because they chose Jesus and refused the mark of the beast.  And I fully agree--even so, come Lord Jesus!  But I fully believe we are in the beginning of a great revival--some say at least a billion souls will be saved--and a final Great Awakening!  Those are the only reasons I sometimes wish I were still young, so I could help more in that work!

I had the nuclear stress test (the nuclear part is the medicine they put in through IV which causes certain things to show up better on the pictures) It really wasn't bad, worst part is the waiting between procedures.  Took three hours total time!  And I have been told nothing about any of the tests.  "The doctor has to read them" is all they say when I ask.  The doctor is from Wichita and flies into Hugoton in his little plane--my next appointment to actually see him is Feb. 2.  I felt I was getting better, but yesterday was a very 'dizzy day' --and I'm not even blonde anymore!!  :lol:

I am heartsick about our fraudulent elections, but am standing in faith that everything will be exposed and justice will prevail!!!

We plan to go to Garden City today, need to get out and about some, and made a grocery list.  Glad we still have a grocery store here, but it's nice to get out of town occasionally.

Prayers for all of you, our poor, sin-sick world and the true Christians who are still standing for truth and justice!!

It is Saturday and it is warm enough for us to take an afternoon walk today.  I am looking for my Swedish meatball recipe but may have to "wing it" from memory.  This morning was spent in dropping an insurance company for one that costs less with more coverage.  Well, Saturday is not a good day for trying to reach a corporation so all will be repeated Monday morning.

Janet (our Dizzy Blonde )  I hope you can keep that dizzy spell away.  Prayers for a great feedback on your tests. 

Jackie:  I will find the story on the missing miners - such a dangerous life for them. 

Judy:  Apparently our new President has already irritated Canada - he is cancelling the pipeline deal- no doubt shocking news you already know. 

Here is some nice news.  We are grateful for any snow in the mountains because of drought conditions.  --and, we had so many fires in the parks and forests that any moisture is a blessing. 

One grandson is doing nicely - he is taking pilot training.  He is all smiles because that was one of his dreams.  The other grandson is healing very well after his truck rolled over - he will have more surgery in future.  His boss gave him a stay-at-home job on the internet so he is thrilled to be on the payroll.  In this day and age, that is great news.  Our granddaughter is working from the house too and she loves to bake so we get fresh bread when she visits and brings her friendly dog who loves to be pet a million times.  The dog would sit on our laps but is too big for us plus is just crazy to lick us.  What a hoot to have her visit. 

I agree on watching and listening to the awful news -

"Judy:  Apparently our new President has already irritated Canada - he is cancelling the pipeline deal- no doubt shocking news you already know."
Carol he is a globalist playing right into the rest of the globalists plans. Trudeau has systematically worked on destroying Canada. It is not good.  We want a new Prime Minister, however all the federal leaders are globalists and they are out to oust anyone out of the respective parties to keep the globalism going.  This in my humble opinion is the beginning of the end for the world.  We need to be ever watchful and waiting for the sound of the trumpet.  It is going to sound sooner rather than later.  I have heard Obama say they want the one world government by 2030..

It is a cold day here, there is a blue sky which is nice however that allows the cold in.  When we have a blanket of clouds it is warmer.  We can't wait for spring.  We are planning a garden bigger than last year.  Doug and John have figured out how to get water to the field , that will provide a better crop.

Well God bless you all and keep you safe!

Just checking in.  Janet as much as I love you it is difficult for me to believe that you have fallen for and believe that the election was fraudulent, It was a fair election and all those safeguards that were in place made it that way. FAIR. Those are the FACTS.

The QAnon conspiracy theorists are another set of lies and conjectures.


The truth will overcome all the lies and conspiracies. I just hope and pray that even the Christians will see the truth  that has  been there all the time. Being a Christian I find it so  appalling that others cannot see "through the trees" the truth is slapping them in the face and they can't see it or believe, but stick their heads in the sand to proclaim Loyalty to a man who is the embodiment of evil. God is the judge and will judge our actions as well. There is a song  "Open the eyes of my heart"  Think about the words of that song.

It is sunny this morning and I can't wait for springtime either.  We are way below snow average and that means water issues plus half the world seems to be moving here.  With all the problems world wide, we can give thanks for a warm house and wonderful family and friends. 

Judy:  Thank you (and John) for this wonderful place of peace and learning.  It seems like extended family to come in here and visit. 

Today, we have someone from the Veteran's Admin. coming over to fix a machine in the bedroom.  Totally grateful for their help. 

We really need more snow in the mountains.  Several states depend on the water and I cannot imagine what kind of water war could happen in future. 

Janet:  Did you have your nuclear test 'read" to you?

Oh My Judy would you really believe this???? Would you really put this garbage on this Christian Site?? More conspiracy!!!!  I will pray for you to see the whole truth. This video is just more of the conspiratorial untruths that continually twist the facts to say something entirely different.

Exactly Jacqueline. There are 2 sides to every issue.  I have delved deeply into both sides. Enough said.

Canada is in a major mess.  CCP police are being trained in our western province, just like their military being trained here in the province where I live.  We are constantly on guard.  Trudeau our PM is pushing for the Great Reset, and that means we will loose everything we own, including our 85 acres of property.  He is aim is to have the Canadian Government own everything.  His deal with Biden has cut 11 000 jobs out of both countries. Please be praying for us as we start to ramp up for a spring election.  Most Canadians feel hopeless as we expect the same results as the last time.  The conservative party is not strong enough to go against him.

Rambo is doing well and has his normal energy back.  Zeke was bent out of shape for a while because of his buddy.  His stress came out on my coat which he chewed and Heather's blanket which he chewed as well.  This is unusual behaviour for him, he usually is such a good boy.  Once he saw Rambo was OK he settled back into his normal pattern!

We have had more snow today.  The weather man was wrong again, he said no snow till next week!  It is cold, at the moment, keeping the dogs in for the most part!

I have been having periods of dizziness over the past 2 weeks.  Usually in the evening.  John and Heather have been good in helping out just wish this would end.  Trying to loose weight, I have cut my portions down and now wondering if that is the cause.  Also I haven't been sleeping well, concern over the dog and other things.

Judy:  Prayers for your dizzy spells to go away. 

Here, I had salmon for dinner - a real treat for someone in Colorado.  Growing up in mostly Seattle we were knee deep in fish meals because the fishermen who owed money for their diesel engines could not always pay right away so they would bring fish to the shop.  Now we know it is good for health but it really did get old for so many meals. 

I admit to being too frightened by so many slip ups with my getting an inoculation.  I finally was able to speak to a human at the hospital and he was so soothing - sent by the Lord to calm my nerves over this stuff in life.  When you have neighbors sick and some died - it is shocking.  I need to remind myself --- Let Go, Let God! 

Our daughter is coming for an overnight visit and she will bring her sweet Golden - Lola.  Lola could be a comfort dog - we can use that right now.

Finally, there is snow in the Rockies - we can see it from here and always give thanks for that moisture - much more is needed. 

Janet:  How is everything with you & hubby?  Sending good health to you two.

Really, I wish the best of health to everyone here.  It seems that it is one of the most important thing in the world right now.

Today was an off day for us, John had a minor procedure at the hospital and everything is good.  I went shopping and had a bad turn with a serious sugar drop.  Had a sugar tab and a drink of Orange juice,(I keep a tetra box in my purse in case) and that helped.  I was so glad to get back to the car safely, and sit and relax.  I have a problem with low blood sugar, it drops quickly when ever I exert energy, walking, swimming, not sure about bike riding. 


The children, teachers, school bus drivers, are all struggling with this lock down.  No sledding, skating, or any outside activity of any kind.  In some areas the police are sanding rinks, and hills to stop these activities.  The kids are going stir crazy, and are acting out as a result.  Even my best kids are having problems with the bus rules. It is tough on them. 

Rambo's eye is about healed. it is itchy and he try's to relieve the itch by rubbing his eye in the carpet or with his paw. Stitches come out on Monday.  That should ease the itchiness.

well that is the update from the north, have a wonderful weekend everyone.[/size]


Carol

Judy: That was quite a day - your day off - Glad to read John is good and you are alright.  You are smart to keep sugar handy and most important using it right away.

 So sorry to hear about the children's sad days.  I hope and pray there is an answer to keep them more active and in touch with their friends. Take care.
