Just in case you need updating.......

Well, I had a little meltdown yesterday! I went to bed about 7:30 last night and slept most of the night. Nick called me about 9:30 pm and woke me, he did not know how much trouble I had sleeping Saturday night. I got up and took a percogesic (over the counter pain med from Kroger, get the kind without benadryl and Kroger brand but you can not drive after you take one pill.....you have to sleep it off! and it is non-drowsy the next morning). It really helps with the pain of arthritis. And it will help you sleep. I needed it. I will be going to sleep pretty soon tonight too. I am sitting up in bed with my laptop getting sleepy and I already have my CPAP on, just gotta take off the glasses in a few minutes and lie back to sleep. I do hope it comes soon! I hate waiting on that sleep fairy. Law and Order on the TV soon to change itself to Criminal Minds then Star Trek TNG and back to Law and Order (just in case I wake, something I like will already be on....) I have always slept with a TV on. Even when I was a child, my parents left the TV on all night. We lived in a 6 room house, living room and parents room in the front, kitchen and boys room in the middle and my room (aka the far room) and back porch last. The back porch was enclosed and a utility room of sorts. The wringer washer was there, the cistern was there, the water bucket was there, and yes, we had a dipper in the bucket and all drank from the dipper and socked it back in the bucket. Our was pans and tooth brushes were all kept there, and when we were little the potty was there. When we were old enough, the outhouse was about 50 yards out the back door. Did not matter the weather. The outhouse was the last place you went before bedtime, which was by 8:30 or 9 without fail but that TV stayed on all night. They watched the 10 o'clock news and whatever came on after, usually on channel 5, sometimes 13 until the station went off the air by midnight. Then there was this noise the TV made until Carl Tipton came on at 5am and it was time to get up for the day. When I was in high school, I caught the school bus by 6am.

Well, enough of that I guess. I really want to apologize for the melt down yesterday. It will be OK!

Now, I would like to ask again for you to remember a friend in prayer. The following song is one of her favorite songs. You don't have to know her name or why I am asking you to remember her in prayer, but God knows all so please remember her in prayer. Thanks!

There is a God
there is a God and only one
He made the earth and sun
He made all things
created man
according to
His plan

there is a God
and He is real
deep in my heart
His love I feel
when I am laid
beneath the sod
I'll see and know
there is a God

when I was lost
in sin and shame
the Blessed Savior came
He lifted me
on higher ground
for heaven I am bound

there is a God
and He is real
deep in my heart
His love I feel
when I am laid beneath the sod
I'll see and know there is a God
