Every time I embark on a new endeavor, there are questions in my mind of priorities, How often do we find ourselves in this position? As often as possible I try to stay back and let God handle this. Being human is a very hard thing to do and still be able to let God handle things for my good. Prayer has gone into this new venture and my hope is to let go and let God handle anything that happens.

My Thanks
Once again I stand in awe of our great wonderful God, and how he helps us before we know it. It doesn't take long to know that if you let him, he will take full control and everything will work out exactly right. I am thankful for his hand in my situation with my eyes. Seems I've already got enough money saved up for the out of pocket expenes after Medicare pays off. I was worried that I would be having to scrimp to save up for the second eye, but now I won't..

Gloves
In many lines of work the industry has to maintain the physical nature of many jobs. Warehouse, construction and other labor jobs are some that will be found using g-tek gloves for protection and safety. I have used such gloves when working in a warehouse and was thankful to have them during that grueling job.

Trust
How often do we get caught up in life to the point of loosing our perspective? Troubles start happening and it seems they overwhelm us. Finding a solution isn't easy for our human minds. Here we find the often falling apart trend. We feel all hope is lost, and depression sets in. So, often we are dealing with the human aspect of the situation and not relying on the almighty power of our Lord to maintain and control the situation.
This last weekend was prime example of what I cannot fix on my own. What I thought was lost, became more solid than my expectations could have assumed. What became a sad situation, that I was trying to deal with, turned into a show of the wonders and works of our Lord's mighty hand. Today, there is a calm that passes all understanding and makes the situation "a good thing". Thank you Lord, for being that wonderful "control being" in the midst of my situations.

Styling?
You see most young people with their shades on when it's not needed. It's a trend to wear them and if they are ray ban shades then that's acceptable in the fashion scene. You can see a person get up tight when they consider they have lost their pair of shades. I think the price might have something to do with that. If would be a factor for me.
Rain
I woke up to wind, thunder and rain hitting the house. It will be nice for the lakes, since most of them are down. It kept me from mowing the yard, after weeks of telling myself, "I'll do it tomorrow". Will give the grass 2 days to dry out and then try to get motivated once again. There is now a dire need to get it done, grass is growing fast.
Mold
A water leak or even a flooded can be devastating when it comes to clean up and repairs. Many times after the building's structure has dried out, certain areas can develop mold. This is when you need help with detection and removal. You can shop mold killer here by clicking on the link in this post. Information will be ready for your interest.

Good with Bad
A true statement written in the word of God, is "through all things there with be content". Years of fighting this and wanting my own way cause much turmoil, unhappiness, pain and sorrow. I never was satisfied with life as it came to me. I wanted more, because I thought I deserved more. Sounds like a spoiled rotten brat, doesn't it? In some ways yes, I was. In other ways, I was a deprived individual who sort for some relief from the life I was living.
As I said, after all these years, I come to see that whatever I'm going through isn't as bad as what others are going through. Counting my blessings helped with that problem. Today, I can be thankful for many things, even in the midst of a life storm. Living life, getting older and seeing the places I could be, have helped me get through this phase in my life. I can now be content with my life and be thankful for all the good that has been given me.

Covers
You never know what can come up through a drain pipe. I've seen horror stories, which leave me leery of the scene. I figure it would be best to have floor drain covers as a precaution, because of living in a rural area. I try to keep the smell at a minimum but, if I forget to put liquid cleansers down the drain, then the smell can build.
These Eyes
I've been waiting the longest 3 years trying to get Medicare and the other areas of healthcare to corporate. It seems since I didn't take the Part B of Medicare when I turned 65, they are going to take a peanility from my already small check. Also, I missed the cutoff date for filing last year by 3 days so I had to wait untill Jan. of this year to file for Part B. It doesn't go into effect until July 1st of this year. All this waiting has taken toll on my eyes. I have lost sight in the right eye, and need immediate surgery. The other eye has been carrying the load for my sight. It's starting on the downhill slide as well. Prayers for help with this situation please.

Support
The world of the flat screen TV has evolved into a big thing and I have at least two. My sister's husband had their large TV mounted above the fireplace in their livingroom. It fit there perfectly and is in good range viewing for everyone in the area. I'm sure they shopped for flat screen tv stands to support their TV since it really needed to be secure.
Beauty
Eyes
My eyes are taking a toll from all the waiting I've been having to do in the last year. The Medicare part B won't kick in until July 1st and then, they are charging me a penalty for not taking it at age 65. The supplemental insurance needed, can't be gotten until Oct. of this year and won't go into effect until Jan. of 2014. My right eye is almost gone, and needs immediate attention, so now I guess Parkland Hospital is my only chance for help.
Smoke
I've found that during my years as a gardener, I felt the urge to see if I could obtain seeds to grow tobacco. A mere speculation on my part of course, since it's possible I don't have the right soil for such a thing. Yet, the idea of it was interesting. There's the perdomo website which gives plenty of information on the subject of this adventure. You might be interested like I was.

Today
I woke up this morning, much as the other days. The sound of my chiming clock in the living room let me know it was 6am, but I awoke before it chimed. Here in my home I find that the walls tend to close in after a few hours and the day seems to drag after that. I know that I am blessed by having another day to move forward and live. I am thankful even though it doesn't sound like I am. There's plenty domestic work around here for me to do. There's other errands that I need to make, and here I sit on my lazy duff. Either way I thank the Lord for this day, my health and the life that I am living lately. It's been quite a turn around after all the hard years of living and being strong. Today, I am thankful for the release of so much stress, and responsibility. It's a good day and that's a good thing.
