Been great so far...except for having to stay in to wait for
the rock chip repairman to fix the ding on my new car’s
windshield. :(

I think yesterday was another Monday! LOL!

HAPPY THURSDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!


Glencar Waterfall, Co. Sligo, Ireland

From “The Stolen Child”

Where the wandering water gushes
From the hills above Glen-Car,
In pools among the rushes
That scarce could bathe a star,
We seek for slumbering trout
And whispering in their ears
Give them unquiet dreams;
Leaning softly out
From ferns that drop their tears
Over the young streams.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.

William Butler Yeats

RESTORATION OF HEALTH

“Restore me to health and make me live!” Isaiah 38:16

If you are needing healing, know that God, your Creator, is the great healer.

What can you do when you are confronted with disturbing reports or symptoms of ill health? You can hold steadfastly to the idea of Divine perfection and protection. Created in the image and likeness of God.

As you affirm in prayer that the life of God is your healer. God is always with you.
Every day of Jesus’ Ministry was spent in uplifting and healing people especially people that human beings thought could not be healed.

Was healing just in Jesus’ day? No, healing from God is just as real, today, as it was 2,000 years ago.

A powerful healing work is begun the instant you place yourself in God’s Care. There is no finer way to work with medical professionals, than to have faith and belief that God is still Creating and is restoring you in health.

Every hour of every day, you become more of what you were created to be a radiant expression as a child of God.

Perhaps the greatest gift you can receive from God is wellness.

WOOHOO!!!

Nephew Bryan returned from Afghanistan this morning to a rousing welcome at Ft. Lewis, WA this morning!

Mrsd and two of our daughters were there to welcome him and his soldiers.

I stayed home.. didn’t think is would be beneficial to my back and leg pain to take that long drive.

The Center for Disease Control has issued
a warning about a new virulent strain of
this old disease.

The disease is called Gonorrhea Lectim. It’s
pronounced “Gonna re-elect ‘im.”

The disease is contracted through dangerous
and high-risk behavior involving putting your
cranium up your rectum.

Many victims contracted it in 2008 ..... but now
most people, after having been infected for the
past 1-2 years, are starting to realize how
destructive this sickness is. It’s sad because
it is so easily cured with a new procedure just
coming on the market called Vo-tem-out!

You take the first dose/step in 2010 and the
second dosage in 2012, and simply don’t engage
in such behavior again, otherwise it could
become permanent and eventually wipe out all
life as we know it.

Several states are already on top of this like
Virginia and New Jersey , and apparently
now Massachusetts, with many more seeing the
writing on the wall.

Cat Person Profile Quiz: Questions

Is your devotion to your cat and “cat things” in the training stage, at a moderate level, or extreme? Or are you an all out shameless “cat-a- holic?” Let’s just see how you rate as a “cat person,” shall we? See how many of these can you give an HONEST “yes” answer to:

—Can you meow so well that you can fake out your cats?

—Have you ever called your husband/wife by the cat’s name by mistake?

—Do you think of your cats as the “furry kids?”

—Did you ever decide to buy a house or rent an apartment based solely on the potential spot for the litterbox?

—Do you think cat hair in your food is a good source of protein?

—Last Christmas/Hanukkah, did you spend more money on cat toys than you did on gifts for the kids or grandkids?

—Are you at a loss as to how to talk to people who don’t own any cats?

—Does your wallet contain more photos of your cats than your kids or grandkids?

—Have you often slept on the very edge of the bed so that you won’t disturb the cat who’s sleeping in the very middle?

—Do you leave messages for the kitty on the answering machine?

—Have you ever invited a guest to sit down by patting the seat and making that noise with your pursed lips?

—Does your answering machine have the cat meowing on the outgoing message?

—When you go to the bathroom do you think of it as “using the litterbox”?

—Have you made a habit of setting a place at the table for the kitty?

—Do you know your cat’s birthday (or if not, have made a good guess) and have a birthday party to celebrate?

—When your husband/wife gives you the ultimatum, “OK, it’s me or the cat,” you don’t hesitate for even one second.

—Do your neighbors talk about you as “the nut with all the cats?”
