God who knows what I need~

A really busy day at work~did a few good things, I hope. I can work hard, put things in place, set them free, and pray the outcome is of their choosing~ Dinner and lots of chat with my sweetie~a perfect end to a very busy week and a very busy weekend ahead. Being with the love of my life is more than I can ask for. God, how did you know? Really...how did I know, how did we know? Merci~ I am the luckiest girl in the world. I've always known it and feel it so strongly..even on a not so good day. Merci~ So much talk of Dad..not sure why, well, I do know, we will be lost without him..at least for a while~sending him to mom should be easy but letting go will be so difficult for me~ Merci for the strength I will need~ please...

God of my understanding~

Merci God for today, warm, sunny, and our little hummer is still here. I pray that my work was enough to change a life or two today~ Merci from the bottom of my heart~

God who knows me~

Another beautiful warm, sunny day. Our hummer, Gertrude, as Scottie has named her~ is still with us. She was enjoyed and entertaining to the girls that were over for afternoon tea. What a treat. Scottie and I went for our very last DQ~French Silk Pie..for both of us~ Merci God for such a wonderful, special day~ and a late visit from Laura. More on that... Merci in enormous ways God~ me

God~

Our little gal is STILL here..not feeding heavily, and I'm concerned for her. Fly away little one, fly away to your winter home. High temp today was 85, very warm for this time of year~ Sat outside with Dad for a long time, chatting..I think we both treasure our moments together. Tears come easily when I think of him and our time together, especially kissing good-bye. Dad has been so brave~ Physically I don't feel well..4 months or more~ hmm. Merci God for your clear presence in my life and the lives of all those I adore~

God as I understand him~

What a miracle today was~enjoying the calm of my home, puttering around doing all those things that have been left undone, catching up. Even sat in the grass and read, soaking in as much sunshine as I can. Our hummer is still here and I told her to take one last drink and fly away to her winter home~ I'll let you know tomorrow if she listened to me :) Nice dinner with my sweetie, still recovering from his "trauma". I'm so grateful I was home when he needed help~ phew! And to top of my day..I was at my meeting and in walked one of my dearest friends..a woman who took me to my very first AA meeting..and yet, she didn't attend AA, until now~ Life changes and we change with it. I loved seeing her and told her how I've missed her, and she said the same. It hardly seemed like a day had passed between us~ Friends are good that way. Merci God for all my blessings~

God who cares for those I love~

A beautiful fall day, the leaves are changing before my eyes. A few estate sales for me and Scottie went biking~ then boom~ Scottie is rolling around on the floor, dehydrated, having cramps, can't stand, despite my attempts to get on top of it. He asked to go to the hospital...he army crawled to the back door..and off we went. Three hours later, all is well~2 bags of fluid. Scottie he recuperating..recovering~ Merci God for your blessings and care today~

God who makes special days~

Oh my gosh...it's a boy! As Great Papa, Scottie, and I watched Katie's "LIVE" Sonostream from Denver, we found out that the Duncan's, Katie, Ryan, and baby Hayden will be having a son and a little brother!! What a joy to hear them exclaim when they were given the news. What a wonderful "family bonding" time for us all~ One female hummer remains~~Papa, Scottie, I, watched her feed as we enjoyed lunch in our beautiful sunny porch~ Merci God..you fill me up when I least expect it. And so it goes, Merci~
