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



I never realized the beauty that is in the world until my sight started to grow dim.  Now it seems that everything is beautiful to me.  This is one of the many trees in my yard, which provides ample shade in the summer months.

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.

Daily

How often do you find yourself whispering a quick prayer in your mind and heart about certain situations you are dealing with?  Do you notice that quick moment when you rely on God's assistance in situations beyond your control?  I find this happening more as time passes by.  The small things aren't as important as the things we can't control  Therefore, it seems I reach out in desperate need to the only thing I believe to be a help during these times.  Sometimes I even find myself quoting a small part of a scripture, which comes to mind which was learned in my early years of church attendance.  How do you go through these tough times?  I am sure each and every one of us have these moments in our daily lives.

What To Do?

I had hoped that once my youngest son, got out of the halfway house, he would stay up there in that area to work and survive.  It's my sad fear that he will come back to the same area where the problems all began.  He's a grown man going on a teenager, who never really grew up.  He doesn't want to accept responsibility for the things in his life.  I can't manage him, if he decides to come here.  I have told him that I can't have him living with me.  It's as if he's not listening.  I hope God intervenes in this situation, because I don't want to cause a split between my son and me.  These things never go well and turn out to cause hurt feelings for years to come.  Prayer and trust that God's ability to handle this is about all I can go on right now.

Trust?

There's comes a time in everyone's life when they trust someone.  It's may not always come out the way they hoped.  If it does, then it was a trust well spent.  I've gone out on a limb many times only to be left hanging and holding an empty shell of what could have been.  These times are hard to get through, and  leave you with a bitter taste in your mouth along with broken relationships and hurt.  I've found my heart gets me into many circumstances that I often regret.  Yet, they say if you don't have an open heart to trust then you might loose the best thing you could have ever had.  It's my prayer that, today, I made the right choice.

It's become a common thing to hear that people are filing for bankruptcy.  Loss of jobs has put many people on the streets, living where they can with no relief in sight.  You find this everywhere, and every State has it's problems.  The raleigh creditor rights bankruptcy lawyers  can assist victims in the areas located near them.  Clicking on the link will send you to the website for information, not in this post.
