Loneliness

This is the season of great Joy! The season to celebrate the birth of our saviour Jesus Christ. Yet I find myself more lonely then I have been in a long time. Laurie is out of town. It is snowing and I am broke and have no where to go. I can't wait until Friday. Much to do and lots of people to see. I found myself over eating the last two days due to this boredem and of course, I get sick almost immediately after eating. So at least I won't have a big weight gain because of it. It is a time many of us find to be the loneliest time of year. So many have no one during this season. I have many in my life but they are all busy with their familes.

It doesn't help most facebook app's are down, and it is snowing.

I am totally looking forward to the weekend filled with friends and activities. In the meantime, tv, computer, Bible reading, praying and playing with Cricket. Hoping the app's come back soon.
I should be crochetting, I just am not motivated to do it.

What I am Thankful for!

This being the season to be thankful. I wanted to share what I am thankful for and it is a big list.

1. God in my life, his love for me.
2. Being Alive, I died last November, and was brought back.
3. The wonderful home I have with Laurie and Cricket
4. All the love I have from friends and family.
5. Have a wonderful place to worship God and that I live in a place I am free to do that!
6. My Connections Small Group,
7. My wonderful close friends! Your the best of the best!
8. Being able to impact my community. I hope I live up to God's expectations there, and not MINE!
9. That I am not going to spend another holiday season in a nursing home.
10. The loss of 80 pounds without having to try.
11. Getting to Meet Renie and Tim and give them a hug!
12.Thankful for their friendship!

This list was bigger before I started typing it. Now I am drawing a blank! LOL

Feel free to add yours!

Father God,

Thank you for all the things I have listed above, most of all #1 your love!

Amen!
