Good morning my FRiends, I am so sorry I have been away for so long, but illness does that to you, and you have to learn to ration your time and abilities. It has been a wild ride since I landed in the ER on the 10/24 with Vertigo, which turned out to be Meniere’s, “glaucoma of the ear”. 2 weeks later the second ER trip was a full blown Fibromyalgia attack. I am getting very slowly better, and am extremely UNHAPPY about this low sodium diet they have me on. I am seeing the BEST Ear doc in the 3 state area, no less than Dr. Paul Shea, son of the founder of Shea Ear Clinic, which has the reputation of St. Jude’s.

No one has bothered to check that I am HypoThyroid and depend on the Iodized salt for my IODINE supply, as I am not about to eat a ton of sea weed to supply the micro nutrient. So that has become a new health issue. As the Thyroid is the furnace of the Endocrine system, which runs the whole body.

I see the Urologist for the now chronic UT infections on the 29th.

Next month brings new changes, a new ortho doctor to HOPEFULLY repair my rotator cuff, and hopefully the bulged lumbar.

And an Endocrinologist to take over the treatment of the thyroid, as treating it beyond prescribing the necessary Synthroid, is beyond my PC’s field of knowledge.

End of the sob story. My spirits are still up and down, but I know GOD will get me through this. It may be a long road, but I know HE is there to help me through.

We have had to scale back CHRISTmas this year, but it is still CHRISTmas in spirit.

It was a balmy 51 when I let the doggies out this morning.

[GailA]

I WISH EACH AND EVER ONE OF MY FRIENDS at FR A BLESSED CHRISTmas. In the name of our Savior Jesus Christ whose birth we celebrate, amen.

Dear Gail, I will write later. I’m waiting for my pain pill to kick in so I can go to the grocery store. So very sorry for all of your problems at this time. I will continue in prayer for you, my friend!

There are a few Pastors in America that so dilute the Word of God and have censured the warnings and cautions, so that the church is seeing little need for salvation since God forgives all they do, ...IE God is love, God is a forgiving God.

When the truths of the Gospel are removed or glossed over, we are responsible for allowing evil to enter, remain, and change the church from within. We are the hands, feet, vessels, and voice of God daily.

How are we doing?

Thank you, Mayor, for today's Daily Bread. It is always thought provoking.

Merry Christmas!

A reminder also...Chanukah starts tonight at sunset. A wonderful Holiday that celebrates Freedom from Oppression, Liberty, and God's provision!

Dear Meg, Thank you for your Beautiful #1158!

It was a much nicer than the “Holiday Message” we got from our own “Dear Leader”.(WAS there even one of those? I must have missed it! )

I would Faint if he Gave Out a Message like the One BiBi Gave.
I Wish BiBi was our President.

[Kitty Mittens]

Kitty, that is such a lovely graphic! Thank YOU for all your lovely, amazingly sweet, peaceful graphics each night!

Wishing you a relaxing week with a peaceful celebration of the Birth of our Savior.

Thank you, Sweet Yorkie! Your #1162 is So Cute! : )
