Prayer for Peace
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Amen.

--St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226)

LK's been such a marvelous sistah in helping me out with making new rooms.
In fact, if this room reaches 200 and I seem to take too long to do a new thread, don't hesitate... anyone of you can do this. This forum belongs to all.

And if any wonders why a some names still remain in the prayer requests, while they haven't shown up here for a long time.
A couple I've maintained contact through emails and of course that necessary FB. While the others, I know firsthand that they truly need prayers.

Will get back with you all this evening. Excuse my absence.
Hugs and love to all.

Some Maxine's wisdom to ponder.

Save the whales. Collect the whole set.

A day without sunshine is like...night.

On the other hand, you have different fingers

42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot.

99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name.

Remember, half the people you know are below average.

He who laughs last thinks slowest.

Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.

The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have.

A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory.

Change is inevitable, except from vending machines.

If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.

How many of you believe in psychokinesis? Raise my hand.

OK, so what's ! the speed of dark?

When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.

Every one has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

How much deeper would the ocean be without sponges?

Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

What happens if you get scared half to death twice?

I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder.

Why do psychics have to ask you for your name?

Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened.

Light travels faster than sound. That is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Life isn't l like a box of chocolates.... it's more like a jar of jalapenos. What you do today, might burn your butt tomorrow

Jaye that is so beautiful and LOL at Maxine! I want to meet the person who writes that stuff.

TORRINGTON, AB(Zone 3b)

"A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. " Hey - that would ME!!! No wonder I sleep so soundly........ ^_^

Fayetteville, AR(Zone 7b)

LOL Susan!!!

I love Maxine and so does my dad. He sends me her clips all the time. lOL
Crissy hope you heal soon. maybe you popped out a rib ? i did that once , very painful
Jaye sorry to hear of Kels uncle.
trying to keep up with you guys . makes a girl tired whew.
planted lots of plants today out in the back flower bed
cool and windy her today
i got 18 chickens !
With C-Sec the scar is under your bikini line and right at your *eh hem girl part area* so you won't see a thing when your hair grows back. I do agree if your going to be by yourself with baby . they take longer to recover.
its only 7 pm and i m ready to go to bed
puppy is up at 5:30 am !! ready to pee.

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

ROFLOL, I really needed those Maxine quotes! Have you seen the Maxine fabric? I ordered some to make a lap quilt for a friend in Gainesville as she is "nuts" about Maxine. Rule #1 she tells me is always get her a Maxine calender for Christmas. Getting harder to find some good one now.

Crissy, please take care we just don't need you sick or hurting. Enough of that going around.

Sue, I am with you....I "tared" too!!!

Waving to all, I am trying to get myself repacked as I have to go back down to my Moms. She has had a setback and I am needed to help share the trips into the hospital to see she is fed. Doctors have told my sister she won't be in any shape to be moved to the Rehab Center for a few more days. Tonight inspite of notes all over her room about "liquid" diet, they brought her turkey with dressing, green beans, cranberry sauce and a salad! She also had a fruit smoothie with it so she did drink that.
If I can get some thing wrapped up here I go Sunday if not then Tuesday early. I refuse to travel on Monday.

Have a great weekend everyone.

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Crissy, I do hope you'll wake up to no more cruds tomorrow!!

Ahhh Sue... the joy of a brand new puppy!! At least you didn't have to burp it after feeding!! Lol!!

Maid M, I'm sure your notes were written in English? Next time, you might ask Kim to write those instructions in Spanish.. or "press 2"!!
It's noted that our medical workers are the highest paid in the world..but some need to be reassessed when it comes to empathy and especially giving the attention their patients needed.
My heart goes out to you Maid M. Be careful on the road, and know that our prayers continue for your mum.

Thought most of us could use these Maxine's 'witticisms'. Like yours too Susan!

Think this one is the right one for me, now.
"When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane"

I am definitely in the wrong lane!!!

If you don't want to read any more unhappy news.. stop right here.

It's sad enought that Kel's favorite uncle been told he might not be with us long..... tonight we found out that another uncle... Henry's older brother... is diagnosed with cancer.
He's tightlip about it as he's getting another opinion with the V.A. doctors.

Lord, if I ask you to put me in the right lane.. the devil might bring me to a dangerous crossroad, huh?

One day at a time..one foot forward at a time.. and tomorrow the sun will definitely come up!!!

In the meantime, there's nothing I can do for now, and worrying won't help. But prayers will!!!

Good night sistahs!

there was one day that the pup pooped, pee'd and barfed in her crate LOL oh what a joy to clean !!
good morning everyone
off and planting again today

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Morning ladies!
Sun's up and that means yes.. life continues. Got chores already planned and will be busy like our Sue here.
I know Cookie's already in her 'kingdom' with a cup of coffee in hand.
Hope you all have a fantastic Saturday.
Something to look forward to, this evening.
College football!!!

Franklin, OH(Zone 6a)

Yes, Jaye, you were right....I was walking the kingdom by 7:30. Today I got to wear a light jacket. It's a sad looking sight out there...so very, very dry. I've asked God to give us a hand, but I guess the timing isn't right for Him.

Jaye, I've been writing on my slate that Betty gave me every day. I'll be using some of your quotes above. Yesterday, Bill wrote on it for the first time....he wrote..."slowly sinking"..... :o( He didn't leave it on for long, I said, I just LOVE an optimist! :OP

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Jaye and Cookie, we are all here for each other. I do understand about the wrong lane but then I think "he doesn't give us more than he thinks we can handle". We may question it, oh how I have done that, but somehow his love and hands keep us going. Nothing to make you feel like things are better than to go out early in the yard (even with it dry Cookie) and see the first breaking of a new day. I have to believe things will look up!!!!!!

Oh Sue, if I didn't know you were talking about a puppy I would think it was like my last child. He had many stomach and digestive issues when he was younger. LOL
Made up for it since though.

Well I need to get back to putting things together for my return trip. Still hoping I can caravan down with son and family tomorrow but that depends on what I accomplish today.

Be safe all and remember we are sistahs and hang together.

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

good luck to LSU today




ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
time for the Saban Nation to shine

(Cindy) Auburn, CA(Zone 10a)

Hello Ladies,

Been down at Doug's since Monday. Yesterday we had a little crash on the scooter.
We had a new tire put on the back and was pulling out of the parking lot, when all of a sudden the bike slid sideways and we went down. It happened so fast I didn't even know we went down. I have a road rash just above my left elbow, and a bruise about the size of a lemon on the inside of my left thigh. Plus I have sore muscles across my stomach. I guess that is from getting thrown off. Doug is ok and so is the scooter.What made us go down was there was a wide strip of oil in the road, plus having a new tire that still had all the coating on it. A big truck had parked down the street aways and was dropping off new motocycles. He had parked in a large puddle of oil and when he left all of the tires went thru the oil and tracked it down the street. Plus with it being hot that helped keep the oil slick.
Doug didn't want me to come home, he wanted to take care of me. But I needed to come home to get things ready for our trip next weekend to the Redwoods.

oh purp sorry about your fall on the bike. ouch. I m so jealous your going to the redwoods !!!! i believe everyone should see a Redwood before we leave this earth. they are truly Gods master peices . Words just do it to discribe them do they ?
so i got some Chinese junipers in and some burning bush.
tomorrow i may hit Cookies house ? hint hint since she needs pots and potting mix :) i wonder if she still has cheese ?
kids are good today.
very cool out today at our house. wore a sweater brrr.
got a new country woman magazine
hope to read it soon
take care

Franklin, OH(Zone 6a)

LOL, Sue...surely you jest....that cheese was gone before you were back in Urbana!!!! (Well, maybe not, but definitely the same day!) We do know where we can get more of it though, don't we???!!!

I agree on the God's timing thing....I do trust in him. If I didn't I'd be a basket case by now.

Love you sistahs to pieces!

Victoria Harbour, ON

Prayers for those in need and waving to all others..Jaye and Marion, hugs for you both, feel them?

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

ROLL TIDE!

(Marion) Havana, FL(Zone 8b)

Thanks Kathy for the update. Prayers continuing for both.

Just having first cup of coffee--slow getting up this morning.

Go Noles!!!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

good morning, maid m

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Good morning sistahs.
It's more like a hard squeeze there I felt, Betty!!! Especially coming from little you!!

Kathy, am I missing something? What's wrong with Jax' son? Hard prayers going for her here.

Sue.. hope I'm not too late in wishing you a Happy Birthday?

Cindy, bummer!! Don't do too much that you'd be too sore for your Redwood trip. Take care.

Cookie, you're right about God's timing. But most of the time, we want it now. Same here!! I have all the faith in Him, but the back of my mind is still doing it's own thinking!!! Good thing about Bill is he tries to keep himself occupied. Hugs sistah.

Marion, hope all goes well for your Mum and she can start eating solid food. My late BIL (ex) was put on a liquid diet and almost everyday he had gumbo with the meat all blended in.
Think I read somewhere that you're sleeping on the floor?
If that's right, maybe you could find an air mattress to elevate your bedding?

LK----are you around? Have the company left?
Hummers still out there? How you doing sistah?
All my brugs have holes!!! Even after some serious spraying. Those locusts are immune to everything.

Waving to Crissy. Wishing you are feeling better, girl.

Judy....I still haven't decide on the blocks for your row robin. I need to start sewing. Bet you got a couple of rows done, knowing your determination.

Susan, your 2 Bobs must have treated you like a queen during camp! Hope you didn't get any rain.

Sending hugs to Stacey here.

Yesterday I was nursing a severe tension headache, a stiff neck and a sore right shoulder. Sitting in church was unbearable. Missed the evening Gideon presentation and had to take 3 Advils for the pain to subside.
No dragging of hoses, giving these muscles a break.

Will be trying to sew today.

Sis Kathy.. LSU almost blew it!! They need to fire the offensive co-ordinator.

Edited to say...
Geaux Noles!

Bessemer, AL(Zone 8b)

update on jax's son


He opened his eyes Sunday nite. communicated thru nodding or squeezing my hand. Today they removed the breathing tubes, left the collar on, status remains critical

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Afternoon everyone!
Jaye, I am here. I had compnay all week-end, and when they left af ew hours ago, I layed down for a nap! Please let me know what happened to Jax's son? I guess I missed it too! I went back up to read, but I saw nothing posted???

Hope you all had a great week-end. Cindy, sorry to hear about your spill on the bike! That had to hurt, but so glad to hear it was not more serious!

Jaye, you need to take it easy too!

Happy Birthday to Babr! Hope your having lots of cake, and a great time with your family.

Judy, love that baby blanket, I know they will love it!

Off to read, and cacth up on all the threads.

Later

TabacVille, NC(Zone 7a)

Thanks for the update Sis Kathy.. keep that line open.
Jax must be overwhelm right now.

LK, you need a rest too after entertaining company. Your kitchen must be busy the whole weekend!

(Cindy) Auburn, CA(Zone 10a)

Oh that is good news about Jax's son.

I am doing better. I told Doug I could not figure out why I hurt so bad. He said because the bike fishtailed and tossed me off. I was laying about 6 feet away from the bike. And I think I blacked out for a few minutes. Because all I really remember is getting up off the ground and running over to Doug. And I still had the can of Arizona tea in my hand and did not even spill a drop.

Bowling starts tomorrow, so will see if I can throw a 12 pound ball or not. Then Wed. I am going back down to Doug's and then early Thursday morning we are leaving for Leggett to the Redwood River Resort. Friday morning we will take a ride thru The Avenue of the Giants, then Saturday a ride along the coast. It is going to be chilly, lol. Day temps in the high 70's but nights will get down to 33 bbbbbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Will post some pix when I get back home on Monday.

Take Care Sistahs
Many Huggs and Prayers for all those that need them

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Jaye, kitchen was busy, but hubby grilled ribeyes Sat, and last night my DIL made chicken enchilada's, and oh boy they were so good with my pico.

i decided to throw the rest out when i got home. so i did,
about an hr later i couldn't take it anymore...... i dove in the trash.( IT was clean and still in the container. New trash bag. )
i made a big fuss to my kids on healthy eating and no more cake.
sooooo....
i m cramming cake down my throat at the kitchen sink. my dd comes up from behind me and asks "what are you eating ? "
silence........... picture this. A mom, with a child behind her questioning her , about a cake. Yes it gets worse.... the shame .
i can't talk cuz my mouth is full of cake , i choke it down as best i could. Turn around and say to my sweet little girl who'm i would never lie to in a million years..... and reply " nothing why do you ask ? " and she says to me " well if your not eating anything you sure got weird looking make up on your face. ? "
the horror as i look in the mirror and i see me with full facial cake smear all over my face.
i bow in shame
