So good to see you pop in PJ although I'm sad about your brother's divorce and his wife already having someone else before ink dry on divorce papers. That's depressing to say the least. Oh well, truly there is more than one fish in the sea.

Today, at Half Price books i saw a canvas zipper bible holder that said Jesus said to "Go Fish" with scripture Matthew 4:19

Reminded me of the card game where you say, "Go Fish" and I mean that in a good way. In other words, your brother will just have to be patient until someone worthy of his love swims by.

Hey you, just start picking out some healthy snacks like bottled Gatorade, bananas or small orange juice etc. And, enough water each day, too. Did you see what I was telling Denise to have a thermal six pack size container to take her some healthy snacks to hospital when she visits her mother. You can freeze drinks and let them thaw out by noon or break time. Slim Fasts and Ensure and Boost all have one-third a days vitamins.

There's nothing nicer than your own pretty summery thermal container filled with less expensive healthy drinks and foods to have on hand at work so you take as good of care of you as you do all those pets. Those are likely on sale now since the end of summer sales at most stores.

I got a really nice summer thermal lined zipper canvas like bag with a shoulder strap that holds about two ice cold cans of Slim Fast and one bottle drink and a banana and orange and a few granola bars at CVS half price so only $5. Sort of gives you that summery, picnic feeling all year long. Oh another nice thing when colder is a thermas for soup. Did you know they even have thermal lined back packs with wheels? I found a really nice one that at some point I may take or mail to my brother for when he does short shopping trips.

Are you in choir or attending church still? Have faith things will work out for your brother. If she wasn't devoted to your brother better to know now so he can find Miss Right and not waste his time on Miss Wrong. Or if she needs to do some growing they might rediscover each other when she's matured. There are lots of possibilities. Believing is seeing. (((HUGs))) I know this graphic was to itsme62 yet, now, its from me to you. I hope okay I borrowed. SEA

T, you mentioned "With God All Things Are Possible!"

I went through a phase where I was using up some Acrylic paints and gathering up chairs curb side shopping to do chair art painting prayer chairs. I have three out front:

One is Mark 9:23 "All Things are Possible"

The other is "The Golden Rule" Matthew 7:12

The third is Matthew 6:9-15 "The Lord's Prayer"

The 3rd one reminds me of Dr. Phil's Life Law #9 "Forgiveness" Also, on that chair I have painted the above plus on base of seat I have Prayer Chair.

All pretty. I've done three birth date prayer chairs. And one Prayer Pouffe aka foot stool.

Above chairs are not to sit in and to use to set a basket on for car keys or TO DO notes etc. or just as a spiritual reminder that "All things are possible to those who believe." Sort of like Henry Ford's "If you think you can or cannot. You are right." So... THINK YOU CAN!!!

HUGS AND PRAYERS TO YOU AND ALL...

Tues

Thanks for all your guys info! I do go see the dr. on tues. But I will call dr. office tomorrow and see what they say! I could be like I can't wait one more day. Doubt they will squeeze me in tomorrow. But it will be worth a call, I guess! I keep telling myself I can make it 2 more days, 2 more days!!!!

 

I do have a weight limit of 5lbs. whoopie! Not much is there to do with a limit that low. Yeah I would clean the house but not to how I really like to. I don't move anything, mainly work around stuff :( I use to move the kitchen table when I would sweep and mop. For now I just move the chairs out of the way. I don't even try to move the furniture when I vacum of course. When dr. told me he wanted me to use it still but just watch weight limit. So when I see him tues if not sooner I am going to be like vacuming don't work, laundry sux, and of course not to mention walking what it does.

 

As for the dog treats, I got them a small bag of bones 3lbs. and some of those snausages things. which are really light packages. I rather get the big bulk stuff but I have to wait till I can get a friend to go with me again. I really hate relying on other's to try to help me out. I am also the type when I want to go I am ready. Now I have to wait till it is a good day for a friend to help out.

 

I asked dr. when I first seen him I don't need a sling? He told me no! I was like oooook. So when I go back, I am going to mention it again or maybe even mention it tomorrow when I call. I honestly don't see me going back to work :( UGH!!! I just do hope and pray that I didn't make it a worse tear somehow by possible doing something stupid over the last two weeks. Which I know I really behaved myself. As bad as I wanted to work on that back room I was just looking for the little easy stuff to do like take off all the face plates which there was only like 6 of those. Took maybe 2 min. tops.

 

My friend called me a little bit ago, he has someone that will do my work on my van for me, tune  up, oil change and so on, at a really good price. So tomorrow after I call dr. and go pay my mortage, see what money I have left and maybe get something done on the car, since I really can't go no where else. Atleast this way by the time winter rolls around, it will be all ready to go. HMMM I wonder if I can call my dad and ask him for an early bday/chirstmas pressent atleast get the tuneup done on the van. LOL...

 

Thanks again all! God bless! T

Rocky

That's my big boy! Slightly better pic then the other one. I have a good one of kathy too.  She is real quiet. Only time she howls is when someone walks by the house. She never did that before till this year. I had her for about 2 yrs. now. My boss had her before me and said she didn't howl much then either. Over a year ago Rocky and Kathy had pups, talk about a strange combo (pit/beagle). They turned out so cute thoe. They still are from what I been hearing. Maybe I'll post one or two of them even.
