proverbs 3:1-2
3:1 My son, do not forget my teaching, but let your heart keep my commandments.
2 for length of days and years of life and peace they
will add to you.

lots of exciting things are going on, life is looking up
in a very good way.  God is so great and faithful to me
each and every day.  When I get discouraged something positive always comes my way.  I am so greatful also to get out of the slump I have been in so much the last couple of months.  Somebody VERY special to me will be coming out to CA very soon ;)
that makes me happier than a skylark in a field full of
flowers and bugs. :)

and renew a right spirit within me

Still alive

howdy fine friends/family
just letting you know I am still alive n kicking.
so here is the scoop,
last week I got sick with bronchitis thankfully I know the symptoms and off to the dr, get zpack fell better ;)
Friday I was so blessed (not) to get that stomach virus going around it is vicous with a capital V one minute you are fine the next you feel like your dying.  Thankfully it only lasted 36 hrs vs 12 days.   From being so sick, I re-injured my left shoulder (I know have some very bad strained muscles/tendons in the left shoulder and a couple torn)  the only good thing is that is not my writing hand.
Went to the park today after work since it was 80 outside and this beautiful wood duck was posing for me.
Things otherwise are going great, went to the dr today and have lost almost 3 pnds since the 1st of Jan ;) but being sick is a hard way to do it.
Hope everybody's Friday is super great.
Blessings

Psalm 37:4  Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

All is Fair in love hodgepodge

and here are my answers

1.  The popular saying 'All is fair in love and war' is originally credited to English writer John Lyly.  Is he right?  That really depends on the definition of fair, there are so many ways we can use that word.

2. Are you a cereal eater?  What's your favorite kind?
I love cereal, and still go with cheerios


3. A five year old in Pennsylvania was recently given a ten day school suspension for talking with a friend about shooting one another with a Hello Kitty Bubble gun (the toy blows bubbles).  She did not have the gun with her at school.   
wow that is harsh, we all played with blow guns as kids, that little girls should not have been punished at school that way!!! where is our principals now?



4. Whatever happened to_______________________?
I was thinking prayer in school or saying the pledge of allegiance as my first guess
but zebra gum..you know the kind that had all the flavors (Fruit stripe, in case you have forgotten this
here it is   Joyce I remember your Whip n Chill those were so yummy




5. January 23rd is National Handwriting Day, billed as a day to reacquaint yourself with a pen and pencil.  Do you like your handwriting?  Do you prefer to print or write in cursive?  This date was chosen because its the birth date of John Hancock.  What's the last thing you signed your name to? 
I actually still write letters to soldiers, and I still pay my bills by check.  I signed some checks n letters just
today


6.  Speaking of John Hancock, ever been to Philadelphia?  Do you have any desire to visit the city of Brotherly Love?
Have never been to PA but is on my bucket list


7. Share something funny you've heard a child say. 
Mom...works where? mom says at Church's chicken, child says oh mommy works at churches like so n so
that came from my 2 1/2 yr old great nephew :) out of the mouths of babes


8.  Insert your own random thought here. 
Live each and every day like it is your last, always say I love you to everybody close to you
and never go to bed angry at the one you love
