Daylight Savings

The spring ahead time for some reason is easier to adjust to for me then the fall back time...I don't like this time as well because I am an early riser and I like the light in the morning, but I go to bed so early and I don't like the light in the evening...
I have wondered who makes this decision...seems as though we should have a say in it..it is not so bad when we changed the time in April..but the first of March really seems early...but we will adjust...

Tonight I am reminded once again that the choices that we make in life affect so many people, and most of the time we don't even realize what we do...
My neighbor came over, the one whose husband left her about a half a year ago..just up and left, had a teen age daughter..and now has nothing to do with her either, and my neighbor told me that Jenny dropped out of school...she is a junior..that she is really having a hard time with it all...I am asking my prayer warrior friends out there to pray for them..I feel so bad for them...we never know what another one is going through...

Today once again I am thankful for the beautiful sunset God has given us and the warmth of the afternoon and the safety from the storms last night and the wonderful message we heard this morning at church!
This is the day that the Lord hath made I will be glad and rejoice in it!

T.I.M.E.

T- time is such a mystery to me,

I- interesting to say the least...

M- My days so swiftly are passing me by

E- Even though, no matter how hard I try.....


I can't hang on...and just keeps going on and on....
I look in the mirror and wonder who is that....
When did it all happen and then I look back..
At all the years that have passed me by...
And all at once I just want to sit and cry..
I look at the ones that are younger than I..
I try to remember and my brain try to rack...
When were my children all home with me???
How did we do it, when there was 2 and three..
It seems it all was just a dream...
Hardly seems true at all...
Must remember:
Only one life and it will soon be past,
And only what's done for Christ will last!

Happy 25th anniversary

Love you both

What's the deal

I am trying to figure out what the deal is. My blood pressure has skyrocked again.
I can't figure it out...I am taking a blood pressure pill, but it is doing nil.
So at 8 am. I am going to head to the Clinic and see if I can get some answers..this time it is making me feel funny...not ho ho funny :) but light headed...I am my Mothers daughter..she had this...and now I do too...

I Can't Begin to Count all My Blessings

Today once again I am reminded of how much God has blessed Everett and I. We headed to Mac about 4pm today...stopped 1st at our oldest son..all 4 of our darling grandchildren there greeted us at at door...Grandma, Papaw look, listen, sit by me let me read to you, one goes and gets her violin and starts playing, one comes and climbs up on my lap...one sits between Everett and I and reads 4 books to us and he is only 4 yrs old...we hear about their day, what is going on...so much love I can hardly take it all in, I am in such awe...kisses and hugs good bye...we head to our youngest son..the boys greet us at the door one pulls me to a room to show me something the other cries out "Grandma come look..."the babies in there seats, eyes light up, smiles on there faces just waiting for Grandma and Papaw to pick them up..I get to feed the babies and we have hamburgers with the rest, get to put the babies to bed....again kisses and hugs..we head to our daughters, there again we are met at the door by our grandson...waiting to share what he has learned and showing us what he has made then we get to watch his tae kawon do form. He is 8 and has his black belt already...a real pro...So many blessings, so much love...so very very precious...there is nothing in this world that I would trade for any of it...again I must thank God for this day and all that He has given me..thank you to all my children for the homes that you have made for our grandchildren!

I have some news

I have 4 full time girls working for me and 2 part time..one of my full time girls is going to have a baby within the next couple of weeks. Now she hasn't been feeling really very good so her time at work has been hit and miss, depending on how she has been feeling..it is a good thing that we are slow..our work due to the economy has been cut in half. God has been good because I haven't had to lay anyone off because in the last 6 months I have had 3 quit..and now the one that is going to have the baby isn't coming back because this is her 3rd...but today as I was working with another young lady we were talking and she said. "Evy I have some news, I am pregnant." I really wasn't surprised because I had read on her facebook that she had a secret...and somehow that was the conclusion that I had drawn that was her secret..I had just put it out of my head, because I didn't really need another one being pregnant...again...but it too, shall all be ok...somehow God always takes care of my needs....and what I maybe don't need...so it will all work out...

Almost a clean bill of health

Everett had his yearly check-up in Wichita today...Good news the heart valve and heart is doing great, the blood pressure not so good...but he got some new medication for that so hopefully that will help..we had a beautiful morning together (I went with him) we walked to Panara Bread for coffee and a bagel afterwards and leisurely headed home..I am so glad when this check-up is over and all is good. 19 years for the heart valve..God has truly blest us..Thank you God!!!
