A Breath of Fresh Air

This week has been full of activity, but I have not been plagued with worries. Grandma Jo has gone to be with the Lord. Every time I think about it, I see images of Grandma Jo running through the gates of heaven with her hands held high, as in victory. She fought the good fight and she won.

I no longer have to worry about how my sister may be inflicting harm on herself. She was arrested again Monday evening. This time she was arrested with five counts against her. We are expecting at minimum that she will get a 9 month sentence. If they give her the maximum, then we are looking at up to 20 years. I pray that the Lord's will be done.

This whole being off work thing has been alright. It is good that I have been off work while all this stuff is going on. Here in the next few days things will settle down and I will be able to start job hunting again. I think that's the complete update since the last time I wrote. I still feel a little exhausted. My body is playing catch-up from all that I have gone through. Soon, I'll start being a Fat-Smasher again! Fat Smashing...that's a post for another day! :)

Fat smashing . . . I like your catchy phrase. I'll pray about your job situation. I take it that the trucking job didn't pan out.

Nicky...sounds like you need to get some rest. It is a blessing that you did not have to deal with work on top of everything else. I too will pray about your job situation. Hang in there!
