HELLO! I locked a thread!!!

welp, this week I've been working on spending more time on the little guy. Haven't done anything with my bus., but oh well, it's not going to walk away. Plus, I did give a bottle to a worker at Lowes who has cancer AND parkinsons and he's like in his 40s~! He was sooooo soooo grateful for it, and has already gotten 2 more from me now. I'm praying he really gets huge changes. He's using crutches due to the parkinsons, and he's on chemo, and has to stay with his sister because he can't live on his own yet. But the guy is so upbeat and happy and just such a nice guy, that it brings tears to my eyes. I really look up to people like that, and because he is being so positive, he is giving himself such a great chance to get over all his struggles.

I also watched the football game with H, and only got on the computer about 15 minutes before going to bed with him. The night before it was like 1am, but he had gone to sleep early, so I just ended up staying up late. I know he doesn't like it when I do that. I really don't get it, but I know his 5ll is supposedly time, so I'll just have to live with not getting it. (meaning, the time we spend has nothing to do with quality, but quantity). It's just hard for me since I'm distracted all day so when the kids are in bed, it's nice to actually NOT be distracted and try to do stuff on the computer. got to keep working on all that though.

alright. For people who don't know me....


My sitch happened 2 years ago (wow, so long ago) And my H wanted me back, after having a PA for 6 full months, around July of 2006, no wait, okay, getting confused on the dates. I'll have to see my signature!

but anyways, H and I are doing okay, never went to any type of C, although I wish H would have wanted to, but things are okay, and H is a better person, and so am I. Definitely have changes to keep working on, but who's perfect??? \:\)

I pray for everyone's success in fighting for their M, as I believe God wants ALL of you to win the fight!

Hey ST!! Glad to see you have a new thread going.

Sometimes I think our Hs are "threatened" by computer time.. knowing that could be a time to be "tempted" into something else. I dunno, could be way off, but seems like that comes up a lot.

That's so great about your co-worker! Hope that the MV works well for him.

ya, I guess you could be right about being threatened. although he has never once acted jealous, ever. almost makes me wish he was sometimes. But he did say he didn't like me on the DB site cause he thinks some guy is gonna say "all the right things". But that's because of what happened with me before we got M, that he found out last year.

I probably shouldn't be on here as much anyways, it's just kinda relaxing and I enjoy it. but I CAN get obsessed with things though.

and the guy wasn't my co-worker, did I say that? He was a cashier at Lowes. Ya, I'm really hoping he notices a great difference. how wonderful that would be!!!!

ST, I relate very well to this and it's something I STILL battle with although I pray about it daily!

I tend to take on things like 200% and as such have to be aware of obsessive behaviour

We're all a work in progress as long as we abide in HIM and his WILL for us \:\)

Take care ST & keep up the Good Fight!!

Quote:
Lord, we pray that You would strengthen our mate to resist any temptation that comes their way. Stamp it out of their minds before it ever reaches their hearts or personal experience. Lead them not not into temptation, but deliver them from evils such as adultery, pornography, drugs, gambling, alcohol, food addiction, and perversion. Make them strong where they are weak, help them to rise above anything that erects itself as a stronghold in their lives. May they say: I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me (Ps 101;3)

Lord, you have said that: "Whoever has no rule over his own spirit is like a city broken down, without walls" (Proverbs 25;28) We pray that all our husbands/wives will not be broken down by the power evil, but raised up by the power of God. Establish a strong wall of protection around them. Fill them with Your spirit and flush out all that is not of You. Help them to take charge over their own spirit and have self-control to resist anything or anyone who becomes a lure. May they abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. (Romans 12;9) We pray that they will be repulsed by tempting situations. Give them courage to reject them. Teach
them to walk in the spirit so they will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

[FATHER, in the name of Jesus, please DO WHATEVER IT TAKES to bring each one of our beloved spouses to Christ!!]

this week has been interesting.

Sunday I got to sing with the choir, we had bad weather and they desperately needed an alto... so I said, sure I'll sightread!

As we rode home, I told the kids, okay guys lets be in a really happy mood for daddy so he can see how good church is to us. Well, it was good for a few minutes, then the kids didn't do something and H was really upset and started yelling. sooooo, oh well.

THEN.... the weather got pretty bad so s9 didn't have school and H got off work. and H wants us all to go to the mall for xmas shopping. and the news is telling everyone to stay inside. well, this doesn't happen too often, so we all get ready and pile in. The bad thing is that we can't ever seem to have a nice time out as a family. it's always yelling at the kids or kids yelling at us. so then everyones in a bad mood. I forgot to mention that before we left, the power went out.... and when we got home it was STILL out. and we found out that 250K and more people were out as well and it might be a whole week before it's all back on. yikes! So we get our candles going and half the time it was good- when we weren't yelling at the kids. and at the end we all snuggled up to watch a movie on the new laptop. HEY, the laptop came in handy, whatdaya know!?! So that was something nice that we've never done before... so maybe we can make it a once a month thing.?. I hope H would like to.

AND luckily our power came back on... huge surprise though, cause our neighborhood is so far out and old. But there's still thousands of people out and I guess Bush called for an emergency thing, so that is good. Trees are down everywhere, and they're still falling actually. We've got a tree from our neighbor behind us that is a very old tree and large, and one of it's largest branches split and fell on our fence and into our yard. That's actually the second time it's happened. And so many trees in our neighborhood that are broken so much they are just going to have to cut them down. it's sad. My favorite, a weeping willow just a couple houses down looks really bad, and I'm hoping it will make it thru, but I can tell several branches are broken.

For other news, I really got involved in the house today, and totally cleaned s9 bathroom and painted it, and took the extra paint I made and painted the kitchen too. I think it looks pretty good. yeah for me! cept I've got a lot of cleanin up to do still. dang!

hope everyone is staying warm!
