It is very cold here in Southwest Missouri.
“Emmer Lou” our chocolate labrador is sound asleep in the garage in her favorite chair, and “Tater Pie”, our female feline is asleep on her blanket. The “Man I love” also known as “Thehubs” is also sound asleep, under the electric blanket. All is calm...
I am wide AWAKE!
Not
because I want to be, I would rather be
asleep! But sometimes a girl has to do what a girl has to do. Do you
ever just want to be alone? Do you ever just want to hear NOTHING?
Just silence? Quiet? Calm. Peaceful isn't it.
Ahhhh.......
I
am still feeling so blessed. If you read my last post, I was quite
teary, emotional, and overcome with gratitude. To help a young couple
maneuver the tedious details of making the biggest investment of
their life is a blessing. They have such joy in their heart, it
spreads into others and multiplies. Thank you to everyone who has
encouraged me and prayed with me to have our work pickup and bless
others.
Our daughter has been diagnosed with Factor 5, a genetic disease that causes blood clots and her body has been fighting blood clots in both legs and now her lungs. She will be having surgery and I ask that you keep her in your prayers.
Spread love everywhere you go.
Let no one ever come to you
without leaving happier.

Sweet Dreams!
Jackie, I will pray for your daughter and for you and your family. I am doing the same with my Christmas this year. 3 years ago i went from a closet full to 4 very large boxes. i only put out the things in one box, this year I will donate and the odd thing is, like you they will go to the thrift store that is for abused women.... and yes to needing alone time but not all the time
ReplyDeletePrayers for your daughter......
ReplyDeleteI understand you need quiet. You have a lot on your mind and heart and quiet helps you deal with all that's going on.
Please keep us posted about your daughter. I love that the world of blog and things like Facebook act as a modern day
