Well I'm still behind! Big surprise there to anyone who knows me haha! It is a little frustrating though, mostly because I keep hoping that I will get better especially since I don't work anymore and to quote those who don't know any better than say something stupid like this "You are home all day and you should be able to get things done because you don't have anything else to do!" EPIC FAIL if you don't want to be on my hit list!
Anyway back to my writing and working on my devotion book, I still haven't really gotten going other than a couple of rough pages. I keep getting sidetracked working on the template or background of my blog. Somehow or other I tried to change the background to the library look with the shelvesof books and it kept the pink & brown paisley looking background underneath. I can't seem to figure out how to change one or the other ugggghhhhhhh! and yes I now that's far too many g's & h's I just want to express my extreme irritation and frustration with the thing! I am pretty tempted to just start another blog page. I only have 2 followers anyway, so I can post my link to facebook and have them follow me on the new page. . . .  .
If anyone has any idea how to help or an opinion on starting a new page - just chime in anytime.
A large part of my irritation is the date-today or technically yesterday now, marks the 2 year anniversary of my mom's homegoing celebration. Even though I know she had been gone for a long time due to her Alzheimer's/dementia, the finality of her death just gnaws at me sometimes. I do know that she is with Jesus and I will see her again some day, so that brings consolation.
I think a song by Chris Tomlin brings me the most hope and consolation.
     And I will rise when He calls my name No more sorrow, no more pain
     I will rise on eagles' wings Before my God fall on my knees
    And rise  I will rise

  1. That's one of my favorite songs... thank you Susan.

    I read your other more recent blog too. The problem with these anniversaries is that as time goes on, there are more and more of them. Right now I am watching my mom go through lung cancer, and she decided not to have treatment. So I know it is coming (at 80 I expected that anyway).

    I have to focus on the positive, which is that I am saved to the uttermost, and loved by God beyond all measure. But sometimes there are days when it's hard to see that. Winter is also a cruel time of year for those of us with depression.

    The good news is, Spring is only a couple of months away! And we will get our wings before we know it!

    Meanwhile we will survive those days (and those technical difficulties - which drive me INSANE!)

    ((((((((((Susan))))))))))) praying for you!
