My Roses N ME self photos

Here are a shot of my pink climbing rose and one of my monthly rose.  I set the timer and put the camera on the porch post.  Sorry I did not know the  pink rose was in my face....

o boy

Hey  We think we set up a spot for Glenda.  Join in the fun .. She is glenda-joustathought@blogspot.com

oh my

This has really been a weird day for me.  For the first thing I have not been sleeping all week. Sometimes only a couple of hours.  As you all know this is not my norm anymore.  I stay up til midnight occasionally but for the most part we go on to bed.  I am hardly ever up and dressed til after or around 9.  Then we lay around ( Wesley and I) for an hour or so at odd times throughout the day.  Wesley has had so much fatigue.  He has to have rest periods.  Well, I just lay around but I don't usually sleep because it messes up my nights.  I'm still not getting anything done.

I have been burdened about several things lately and  I always blame sleeplessness on my brain being busy with thoughts and prayers.  I have been in despair because I can't seem to get my wound well.  Then added to that is all this sugar level problems Wesley and I have been having.  You may not know if you've never done it; but sugar monitoring for two is extremely time consuming, and I don't do it well.  It seems like I am always either giving a shot or sticking the finger of one of us.  Incidentally Wesley's sugar was too high to monitor again tonight.. It is so dangerous.   He is also struggling with his therapy because he wears out.  He is frustrated because he ONLY mows.  He wants to do it all.  It worries me because it makes him seen ungrateful for the recovery he had made.  I am frustrated because I am not getting any thing done.  I have so many project that I want to complete.  I have so many things that I want to do for others.  I can't seem to get anything done.

I will be so proud to get the finances situation behind me.  I am so looking forward to next Friday when we will get a final analysis.  I have almost waded thru the boatload of paperwork that comes with it. I feel so inadequate about meeting the needs.  It is really a hassle with the phone calls and such.  And to add to my failure is the fact that we would not be in this shape at all if Wesley were in charge.  I keep telling the Lord  I NEED my husband back WELL.

I am in prayer for Zita about her needs, and the things she faces financially, with her car and wanting to get the carpet laid down and then on top of all that to have unrest at work.  God gives PEACE.  I ask right now for (all of my sisters and brothers, too) for God to cause an end or a rest from the "troubling".

I trust that Jennifer will see some peace now that Max is home.  I am still praying for Dave to get financial blessing without having to sacrifice his health.

I pray for Glenda, Perry, and their family, from the oldest to the youngest, to be consumed by God's love and direction so that they may do what is good in the sight of the Lord.  I am asking for settlement to be made and blessings for Perry's siblings and their household.

Help me pray.  God is faithful.  He is a reward er of those who seek His face. May we become one in our endeavor to put on Christ.(be clothed upon by his anointing as JW used to say).

God is good, God is good, and again I say  GOD IS GOOD

feeling down

I am showing you a pix of my roses after the rain.  The rain made them droop down a little

Finally

Well, I finally got my profile filled out.  Don't you all think it was about time!

Love you all,

o my, what a day

Today started off pretty good.  the kids came by and together we went to Sirloin Stockade for lunch.  Then we ran some errands.  My nurse came around 3.  I took my sugar and it was above 200 and Wesley was laughing at me and I said well what is yours.. we took his, still playing around and the monitor said that his sugar was above 600  (It would not read)  after panic attack and re checks and monitor checks and all that we callled the dr, ( the nurse said we must)  anyway to make a long story short around 4:45 we went to ER.  after a three hour wait they took us back to a room, and after another hour or so wait they told us his blood sugar was 717.  needless to say it was well after midinght when we got home after all the iv / insulin they had to administer.  after the first bag it was still 448.  I guess we will do better from now on.  ER is ZERO fun!

Keep us in your prayersl   ps   Zita I may not be able to help any depending on how the morning runs.  He has to be at the hospital at 1:30 untill 3  for therapy.

My roses

I took a few shots of the blooming of my roses.  My climbing pink rose on the porch post is just buds but it is loaded.  My monthly roses are beginning to bloom again.  Take a look.

all dressed up

Wesley took a pix of me when I got back from the funeral.  I like wearing this outfit.  Thanks  Glenda.

Of course the photo would have looked better if Wesley had been standing up.  lol    makes me look big bellied.  guess that wasn't so hard to do :)

Memories

I was looking thru some photos today and loving the memories of vacation time.  These are pix from 1999.  We were in Nachitoches Louisiana.  That is where they filmed Steel Magnolias.  It was very pretty.  Enjoy

So far my roses are not in full bloom, but I have lots of buds  But my Ivy looks pretty with the raindrops glistening on it
