TIME FLIES BY TOO FAST!!!


EeeeeKKKK! TIME flies by too fast! I just can't keep up! Phew! Here is an older collage(this is one of my FAV pieces Chel, just in case YOU come to visit me! tee hee) I haven't collaged for days and days!!! The little metal on this says "DREAM" I dream of a VACATION!!! or my husband's RETIREMENT! With Health insurance so high, who can retire???
I was at the VA Hospital just about all day Thursday! My oldest son Damon complained of a stomach ache around midnight Wednesday, Thursday, his pain moved from the stomach region to his side!!! I just knew it was his appendix! He didn't have his operation til' around 9:30 p.m. The GOOD NEWS is the Dr's did a laparoscopy, that is going through the belly button and not having that bigger cut on the side as they used to do!!! There was a chance they would have to do it the old way but the new way prevailed and he will have a much faster recovery time! He even got out of the hospital the very next afternoon!! Yayyyy! Now, we are going to have to sit on him for a week because he is a hard worker who hates to miss a day of work and loves to go to the GYM! Lifting weights is one of his Biggies! The Dr. said he was in the early stages of appendicitis which is very dangerous if not caught soon enough! Even one Dr. had told him of another patient in the week who died from this! (I think he told Damon this because Damon proably told him he wanted to go home!) SO DAMON and all of us WAITING were scared somewhat! I had a good vibe from his main DR. though. He trained at John Hopkins Hospital and someone whispered "he's done transplants!" Phew! Doctors and nurses always AMAZE me! This Dr. even took the time to GOOGLE appendix so we could seeeeeeeeeeeee what he was going to do!!! Well, the next day we all felt like a Mack truck had hit us because by the time the operation was over, (the worry is always there with surgery) and we stayed and visited Damon in recovery, we all climbed in our beds in the weeeeeeeeeeee hours! Phew! Thank GOD!!! he is alright! HOPE YOU ALL have a SWEET week-end! LOVE and prayers and don't forget to pray for all the lonely and sick people! Pray, Pray, Pray!!! xooxxooxoxooxxoxooxoxoox, Cinda

PRAYERS FOR THE DEAD

bUT WHO NOW LIVE A NEW LIFE IN CHRIST!!! ALLELUIA!!!


that's MY BELIEF, that we are just here on Earth for a little while and once we leave this world, the Earth, we return to God, the Father in HEAVEN! I am SPEECHLESS and can't imagine being the parents tonight of those students killed by a crazy gunman today at Virginia Tech! Death is so final and comes like a thief in the night! I also put this song on my Blog tonight after visiting a Blog who had this beautiful song because her son had recently died. I don't go to UTube but sometimes listen to songs posted by other Bloggers. This is very fitting for Easter, which we are still in the season of Easter. The rising of Christ should give us all COMFORT! If only YOU can BELIEVE what is unseen.......love and prayers, xoxoxox

MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL EEEEEEEK!




i'M COMBINING Self Portrait Tuesday and Inspiration Thursday all on a Friday, Friday the 13th!!! Are YOU a victim of paraskevidekatriaphobia??? PHEW! That's the fear of Friday the 13th. Some say most people afraid of Friday the 13th are fearful of the number 13 in general. That is referred to as triskaidekaphobia!
For the Self Portrait Challenge this week, I wanted to show my NECK! Did anyone else seeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Oprah when they talked about this, how as you grow older something happens to your neck??? Phew! It's called old age I guess! I'm getting up there and my NECK is showing my ageiness!!! I've got to STOP buying all these pretty necklaces (Thank YOU Allison Shrine, Thea and the last necklace purchase I made is that gorgeous butterfly pendant by sweet Georgia!) Does anyone know how to slow this NECK thingie down, is there exercises??? although I am trying to shed some of those winter pounds that crept upon me! Maybe losing weight will help! I sure HOPE so! Oh well, my poem for Poetry Thursday tells it like it is! The prompt this week was "Drop a LINE" taking a line from someone else's poem. I took Desert Rat's line(it's in purple)YOU can check her poem out here***http://www.celticharper.com/blog/ ***The chocolate mint and patchouli caught my eye! PATCHOULI is my FAV scent!
OLD AGE
IS CREEPING UP ON ME
WILL I ENJOY JUST BEING A SAGE
WHEN MY LOOKS ARE GONE, OH WOE IS ME!
hEEEE HAW, ha! KICK SOME SENSE INTO ME WITH THAT HOOF
BEING ALIVE WITH MY WRINKLES
IS BETTER THAN BOMBS BEING DROPPED ON THE ROOF!!!
THANK GOD! I'VE STILL GOT MY SHINGLES!!!
Cro
ps. SWEET DREAMS!
yES! i KNOW, I KNOW! My bangs are needing a trim! I might get brave and get a short do! xoxoxoxoxox Does that hat look stupid on me, is it too youngish??? It was only 50 CENTS!!!!!!!phew!

WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?!!



lOOK! what happened today! As I was getting ready to scrub my kitchen floor I picked up the 2lb 100% Columbian Coffee can and dropped it!!!! Phew! Can YOU believe that??? LOOk at all the great coffee cups going to waste! In the midst of thinking, "where is my broom" I thought of YOU dear Bloggers! I thought they would get a kick out of this mess! and then I made the HAPPY FACE just for YOU! tee hee! Something like when you get lemons, make lemonade don't you think?
This evening I will be going to church and the priests and all their helpers will transform it into the UPPER ROOM where Jesus had his LAST SUPPER! Jesus astonished his diciples and began to wash their feet! They do this too tonight! One Holy week, it was soooooo moving I thought I was indeed there in that UPPER ROOM! Phew! I will be thinking of YOU tonight as I get transformed and I do think Jesus would have made a happy face if I spilled the coffee at the LAST SUPPER! I LOVE HIM, JESUS is what keeps me going and going and going! tee hee and did I mention I think YOU all are pretty SWEEEEEEEET too!!!! and I am GLAD YOU are in my life!!! xoxoxox

SPC WEEK#1=PALM SUNDAY AND BEYOND


i can NOT BELIEVE it! It is APRIL already sweets!!!
Palm Sunday and EASTER is coming not far behind!
My little church booklet says "Let's study the Lord's palms. First and most obvious, there are nailprints in HIS hands!
then LOOK at the people and what is in their palms John 12; 13 they took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him and cried, Hosanna!!!LOOk at their palms though on Good Friday as they clench their palms into fists and yell, Crucify Him! Now, LOOK at your palms, my palms, what are they GIVING to the world? What can I give YOU? Let my palms SERVE THE LORD! xoxoxox
