CONTINUATION PART II From this morning

   I apologize for not being able to tell you the joke I also read.. I got a little emotional so I had to take a moment for myself..

   Anyhow I usually get the bi-weekly publication from our town... This booklet is filled with all sorts of whats happening in our county.
   I find a lot of funny jokes that faithful  readers submit.
 " Talk About Getting Old"
     Poor Mildred was a 93 year old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband Earl. She decided she would just kill herself and join him in death.Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out Earl's old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart since it was so badly broken in the first place...
  Not wanting to miss the vital organ  and become a vegetable and burden to someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire as to just exactly where the heart would be . " On a woman," the doctor said, "your heart would be just below your left breast."

   Later that night, Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her left knee......Lol

 Here is a little joke for the kids
Q. Why did the Easter egg hide?
A. He was a little chicken!

 I know a little late but early for next year.. Have a blessed night and may peace be with you..

Raining with laughter

   Good morning everyone. Hope all is well and in good health or as good as it gets..
  I am off today and of course it is soaking wet outside... It is funny how God makes me rest.. I was just complaining about how tired I am and all I have to do on my day off. Well I hate going out in the rain so guess what . I am staying home. Getting the rest that is much needed. I was reading some stuff last night and bump into a few good things. First there was a joke and then there was an inspirational quote and then there was a small story that really capture me. It is something that I do and to see that other people do it to, was a comfort to me.
      I guess I'll start by telling you the story,
 It was a young man that remember's when he was a child and his family was much less fortunate than others. This was Thanksgiving time. He tells how someone came and knock on their door and brought them a box of food and a huge turkey and even brought pans to cook it in. They were very poor at the time and the father was very stubborn and refuse to ask for help, nonetheless the stranger at the door simply stated that some friends he knew saw they were in need and would not accept direct help. Although the father refuse the help the stranger walk away and told him he had no choice...
         Many years later this man that is no longer a child remember's this  and had promise himself to pay it foward. So he goes and purchases bags of food for needed families and brings it to them. He actually goes to the disadvantages neighborhoods and gives bags of food.
        I can remember this same exact thing happen to me. Except I was the adult. It was one thanksgiving day and I had no real home for my children or so I thought. See my definition of home at the time was a big house with the white picked fence and a dog.. But, much to my dismay , I learn through that particular thanksgiving that home is where there are a bunch of people that enjoy each other and make a family. People that come together in their hardest times and still love each other and make the best out of a bad scenario. I had two girls and fairly young myself.. The lady I was staying with was an angel that had basically been sent from God to shield me but at the time, i had not known that. This particular Thanksgiving she had lost her job and all I had was a part time one... Not a lot of money coming in so food was very scarce and needless to say no money for a big Thanksgiving dinner... ( Keep this in mind, it's the reason i hate the way the goverment runs the Welfare system) A lot of you might ask why did we not go and apply for food stamps, and we did but because she had owned her home we did not qualify even myself with a part time job maybe bringing in 150 every two weeks and having two girls did not qualify.... But this magical day as we were contemplating in just throwing some hotdogs and make the best of the evening their was a knock on the door. It was a few ladies that came from a church that had A tote of food.. Not a bag a tote of  food and a big turkey and enough food to last us for a good month... I tell you no lie it was such an experience I melted down and just started to cry. They had invited us over to their church and we went and I actually had a great time. Still not understanding the significance of a church but just being grateful that they were sent to our home by someone  we still till today do not know and I am talking about 15 years later, I still do not know.. We kept in contact with the church and a week later they had came by again and this time brought us gifts for the kids. I had two girls and my friend/sister had a son.. They even brought them brand new coats and scarfs and gloves . Boots you name it.. Right now as I am reliving this memory my heart is still overwhelmed by the kindness of some people and it still puts tears in my eyes.. Anyhow I had made a promise to myself that one day I would be in the position to help others even if this meant that I would skip a holiday serving to give it to others. I would not overindulge in gifts for myself and help buy for others that really need it. A child does not understand that Santa did not visit them because there was no money... They just feel that they were bad kids and that is no way to feel... I have personally seen those faces in  my own girls and as long as I can I will help assure that some children do not have too.
     I am not wealthy at all, but I do collect for kids in need. I start to buy little things almost all year around and there is always a child that needs a gift. This year it is my mission to start a drive at my church for kids less fortunate... I want to do like this gentleman in this story and pay it foward. The reward is in the satisfaction of being a christian at heart....
                     " I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said ' It is more blessed to give than to receive' "
                                                                                                 Acts 20:35

  With much love , I will pray for all tonight and hope that this year you keep in mind those less fortunate than you and help your fellow brothers and sisters in christ , that they not need food or shelter in these hard times..

Grandchildren

This is Jenelle. We call her the green eye bandit. She is so precious to us. You know I never realized that when we became grandparents it was like god gave us more children to take care of and do the things that we could not do with our own. There is nothing in this world that my husband and myself would not for our grandchildren. I never though in a million years I would be taking care, or let me say it correctly , helping take care if our grandchildren. My youngest grandchild moved in with us and although it is tiresome , it has it's great moments. We are so much in love with her because she is like a do over of our daughter. Now we get to see our daughter be a mom and help with our grandchild... Isn't God awesome....

Raining

Today was a good day. Hello all today is a rainy day. When I see the rain it makes me think that god is washing the streets and feeding the birds and the ocean. Most of us hate the rain. Things are wet and mushy . You have to carry an umbrella . It slows traffic down. The sky us grey. Nothing beautiful about it but if you see it as if you are being fed and bath and given something to drink then your rainy day becomes wonderful.

Work went by really fast . I hardly got to go to the bathroom. (I always have to go) and barely had the chance to talk to my family. See how their day was.
Lord I thank you today for all you do. Everything that you provide and the things that you promise us. Only you know the place and the time for our seasons I just thank you for your understanding . Thank you for all that you are and all that you do . Even when we do not deserve things. Thank you for your mercy dear father. In Jesus name I pray....amen

   HELLO EVERYONE. LET ME START BY SAYING ALL IS WELL. I HAVE HAD A ROUGH WEEK BUT, AS USUAL IT COULD BE WORST.  I SURVIVE A  COLD THAT FELT LIKE THE FLU...   MY HUSBAND IS BACK AND EVERYTHING SEEMS BACK TO NORMAL...

   AT WORK ITS CHRISTMAS TIME.. IT IS VERY BUSY AND WE ARE STARTING TO GET ALL OUR WINTER GOODS...

       NOTHING MAJOR HAS HAPPENED THAT I NEED TO SAY ...

Missing my Husband

  Lonely is what I feel right now... It is funny how life is. I always thought a couple of days by my self would be great . Relaxation but, the truth of the matter is ,I miss my home. What I mean is that my household is not complete. My husband had to go away to work for a week at another state so I am here with my kids. There is no noice and I feel like I am going insane. Is this normal? Am I crazy?

    Thank you for today heavenly father, the strength that it took me to go to work with what I call the worst of colds... THE FLU>>>>> Everything hurts and no one to take care of me. Not even to yell at me because I am not taking my medicine.. Is that funny or what?

Daily joke

Beware of That Undewear Dust..............

      One evening a husband, thinking he was being funny , he said to his wife, " Perhaps we should start washing your clothes in Slim fast. Maybe it would take a few inches off of your butt!"
    His wife was not amused, and decided that she simply couldn't let such a comment go unrewarded. The next morning the husband took a pair of underwear out of his drawer.
     "What the heck is this?" he said to himself as a little " dust" cloud appeared when he shook them out.
     "April," he hollered into the bathroom , "why did you put talcum powder in my underwear?"
   She replied with a snicker. "It's not talcum powder, it's MIRACLE GROW!!!

    You guys just never learn, do not tick off the woman.

 This was a joke that was in the "Our Town" bi-weekly publication in Pocono Mountains, Pa

Picnic

    Good day everyone. Hope all is I was glad I had work. Today I had a long day at work, but I was glad I had work .So much unemployment going on. Today was the youth picnic at the park for the children at our church. I made it there in the nick of time. They were so kind and waited for me. I saw my family in christ and I had so much fun just talking and having a great time.....

       " Smile at each other, smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at your children, smile at each other--- it doesn't matter who it is--- and that will help you to grow up in greater love for each other...                                                                  Mother Teresa
                      
     

having compassion

Good morning, Hope your holiday was great. Now the kids are back to school and the winter is approaching. I want to make sure I thank my heavenly father for all that he gives me and all the love he shows me even in hard times. Saying this I want to share a story that my Pastor has told us on bible study and when you read it meditate and let me know what you discern from it. Thanks in advance.... Love you all and I pray that all is well I'm your lives.. Your sister in Christ Sylvia I’M SORRY DOGGIE Once there was this little boy. As he was sitting in class one day, he was distracted from the normal every day routine of classroom activity by a rumpling sound that seemed to come from the garbage dumpster. Soon what revealed itself was a little mangy puppy that someone had thrown away. As the little boy watched from the classroom window, he couldn’t figure out what the little mangy dog was doing. Was he trying to get out? Was he trying to get warm? Was he trying to find something to eat? Soon none of that mattered to the little boy, for he knew that before the day was over the sanitation dept. would be there to dispose of the school’s trash and replace it with a new dumpster. Realizing this, his heart was gripped with compassion. Being bound by the classroom and the clock on the wall, he could only hope to be released from both, before the garbage truck arrived. Stirred by compassion that produced love in his heart, he began to ask God to give him an opportunity to do something before it was too late. Forgetting his classroom assignment, he spent the last ten minutes watching the dog and listening for trucks. FINALLY! The bell rings! The boy springs from his seat, leaves his books, hurries to his locker, grabs his coat, runs downstairs out the building around to the rear of the school, leaps into the garbage container, and takes hold of the mangy little mutt. Holding him close to his bosom, and speaking softly he says “don’t worry, your safe now and everything’s going to be alright”. Looking at the dog and seeing what seems to be a puzzling look his face. The boy says. “Oh, not me by myself, I know I can’t give you what you need, I mean after all I’m only in the third grade, But you see I have a big family. I’m one of nine children. I have eight brothers and sisters and we are all children of the same father. He’s gone away on business right now but he’ll be back you’ll see. Just wait till you meet him. He’s the most loving father in the whole universe, and my father taught us all that we should love just like he loves. So you see, you have nothing to worry about now. When the boy finally reaches home he hurries into the house to show his brothers and sisters the great events that have transpired over the course of a day. “First” he goes to his little sister’s room. “Hey look” he says. But before he could get any further the sister screams at him and tells him how ugly the little mutt is and that she wants it not only out of her room, but that he should take it away from the house as far as he could. The little boy, hurt but shrugs it off and explains to the dog, “she’s’ little, she doesn’t quite understand how we are supposed to love, please forgive her for her immaturity. Now changing his strategy, the little boy figures maybe he should start from the elder brother. Believing that if the younger children see the older ones respond in the right way they will then understand what it is to represent the father irregardless of how they feel about it. Yes you guessed it this also blows up in his face. Even going through the whole family he found out that “there is none that doeth right, no not one. Finally after every attempt to cover for his family’s insensitivity, he now see that all is hopeless and he realizes that the only thing he can do now is simply ask for forgiveness himself. I know what I promised you. And I really feel bad, I know the things I said probably caused you to get your hopes up, but I really thought my family would respond in a different way. They always seemed to get it right when fathers around. I didn’t realize they only do it when they think he’s watching. Now crying and holding the little mutt to his face, the little boys holding him closer said “I’m sorry doggie” for thinking this way, but I still believe it will be different someday. “I’m sorry doggie” to assume this way, but I still believe if I continue to pray, the day will come when father will return and set all things in order. Until that day comes I’ll stand in for him. I can’t do all the great things like him, but the one thing that makes me just like him is…………….. I know how to be a friend.

A beautiful vacation

These are pictures from my vacation . I had to show these pictures first because I was walking with my family and I stumble accross this gentleman that was giving his testimony about his walk with Jesus. He talk about how he was deceived by some religion, so he chose to walk through Jesus instead... He was out in the sand just preaching the word of God....... This was an awesome thing to see for me. I was expecting to see the ocean and its natural beauty. It's the reason why I go to the beaches... And to try to get a tan, but that's something else..

Now thank you lord for allowing me to go and vacation with my family even though it was short it was still memorable. I enjoyed myself and planned to go back next year.. You think you miss church but, when you really want to received the word of God it will find you as it did my family and me.. Here are some more pics of the ocean and my family... Hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend..

This was a beautiful sight and breath taking..

It was very hot...

Beaches at 5 pm

 After a long day at the beach , Jenelle tired out while eating..

joke for the day

I read a joke and I want to share it with you . It was from our bi-weekly publication in 'our Town'.. Cajun Blonde After becoming very frustrated with the attitude of one of the shopkeepers, the young blonde declared, "well then, maybe I'll just go out and catch my own alligator and get a pair of alligator shoes for free!" The shopkeeper replied with a sly smile, "Well, little lady, why don't you go and give it a try?" The blonde headed off to the swamp determined to catch an alligator . Later in the day, as the shopkeeper was driving home, he spotted the same young woman standing waist deep in the murky water, shotgun in hand. As he brought his car to a stop , he saw a 9 ft gator coming rapidly towards her. With lighting reflexes , the blonde took aim, shot the creature and hauled it up onto the slippery bank. Nearby were 7 more dead gators all lying belly up. The shopkeeper stood on the bank, watching in silent amazement as the blonde struggled mightily and barely managed to flip the gator onto it's back . Then rolling her eyes heavenward , she screamed in frustration..... " CRAP THIS ONE'S BAREFOOT TOO!"

Gone home

Hello my friends and family in Christ. Hope this is a wonderful weekend of celebration as we dismiss the summer. The kids have returned to school and we are saying good-bye to the last days of summer before the winter months come. To me I have to say good bye to my grand daughter. She came up from Virginia for the month and I got accustom to her being around. Now I am on my way to take her home. Traffic on 95 is not so bad considering the Labor Day weekend. I thought it would be horrible . But to my dismay , I was shocked . I will post some pictures when I get home . I hope you are all in good spirits and good health and enjoy yourselves in any cookout that you may attend or you may be the host of. I do not normally ask but can you all say a prayer for my family. Thank you and may God Bless You.
