Sick

Ok so the dr called last night to give me the results of the tests I had done a few weeks ago. I have issues to say the least but don't want to go in to them until I know for sure what they are and how to fix them. I am not really scared but I know my kids are. I get so tired so easy now and the kids are worried that I am really sick! Then there is the fact I am not allowed to pick up the baby, which is hard on her because she is still really babied by me (she is my very last baby, ya know). I am also losing weight, which I just chalked up to the fact I wasn't really hungry lately, which is true but the thing is this whole thing is causing it.So now I am weak on top of the rest of it. I don't really know how this will end up but I am convinced that it won't end up as bad as the dr made it sound like. Other than that we still have a lot of test and things left to do before we know for sure and I am sure not going to scare anyone more than I have to without knowing for sure. I just felt the need to write it down. I cannot tell Lori yet because she will worry and I sure can't tell D because he is a guy who doesn't get girl stuff at all! As for my mom and such as that, they knew I went in for them but they haven't bothered to make the phone call to check on me at all (what did I expect?) so I am just not going to call her. She will say it is nothing and make it way smaller than it is may be, just because it may take the attention off of her for the slightest second.

Ok well I need to get on some other stuff I was planning ot do right now and I am starting to get tired again, so I should hurry and get it done.

don't

When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must, but do not quit.

Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.

courage

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.

??Cupcakes and Root Beer?
By Julie A. Manhan



There once was a little boy who wanted to meet God. He knew it was a long trip to where God lived, so he packed his suitcase with cupcakes, several cans of root beer and started on his journey.

When he had gone about three blocks, he saw an elderly woman. She was sitting on a park bench watching the pigeons. The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase. He was about to take a drink from his root beer when he noticed the lady looked hungry so he offered her a cupcake. She gratefully accepted and smiled at him.

Her smile was so wonderful that he wanted to see it again, so he offered a root beer as well. Once again she smiled at him. The boy was delighted!

They sat there all afternoon eating and smiling without saying a word.

As it began to grow dark, the boy realized how tired he was and wanted to go home. He got up to leave but before he had gone no more than a few steps, he turned around and ran back to the old woman, giving her a big hug. She gave him her biggest smile ever.

When the boy arrived home his Mother was surprised by the look of joy on his face. She asked, "What has made you so happy today?" He replied, "I had lunch with God." Before his mother could respond he added, "You know what? She's got the most beautiful smile in the whole world!"

Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant with joy, returned to her home. Her son was stunned by the look of peace on her face. He asked, "Mother, what has made you so happy today?" She replied, "I ate cupcakes in the park with God." And before her son could reply, she added, "You know, he is much younger than I expected."

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring; all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.

Take no one for granted and embrace all equally with joy!
