Computers! Such a help / such a pain!

Ms. Sequoia, Thank you. I believe it was my privilege and an honor to serve for so long. I first enlisted in the USMC out of high school and later, after my undergradute degree was done, I commissioned into the Air Force. If I had to start again today, knowing this would be the result, I would.

Thanks and God bless!

Don't rush; but I shall be waiting eagerly! It's a little melancholy and lonely with the excitement of so many visitors now abating, and I will look forward to reading your thoughts.

God's Peace.

Hey girlfriend, My Norton was just up and did not renew, really expensive but now I pay...aghhh. My daughter in law has no problem without one, darn it all anyway,,,I must have a virus or something, but my daughter said she would look at it and see what's up. Ill keep you posted....((((HUGS)))

HI There!.Aloooooooha!...
I hope you are doing ok today, it's been awhile since I checked in with you. I think of you all the time and we need to ride them horses on the beach one of these days....
I am having trouble with my computer, dont know how long it will last, I hate computers when not working right. It must have a virus or something. So if I disappear you will know it is just my stupid computer....I Love You & ((((BIG HUGS))))

Thank you Sharon for your words of encouragement and wisdom. I covet your prayers and today I do feel a better sense of peace. Thank you for being there for me and understanding.
Blessings,
Linda

Well thank you for your service! And I think focusing on prayer is wonderful, as it allows you to see every day what so many of us miss because we are so busy; the hand of God at work answering those prayers. My big struggle since the ALS dx is convinving my middle daughter (17 years old) that God is no less real and loving now than he was before the diagnosis. That all of the truths we know about Him don't go away simply because I am sick. She is mad at Him right now (as am I, at times) but her youth makes it harder for her to see past the anger into his sovereignty. If you do not object, I will tell her about your similar diagnosis and your continued walk with God. Have a really great day today!!

Sequoia,
Thank you. The Lord brought us together and He will separate us temporarily. As you said, God always shows up at His appointed time, which is when we need Him most...He is forever faithful.
Thank you my sister.

Sharon,

Ann's caretaker, Frances left a message for us from Ann. Please read it at TEA.

And he said to them, spread the good news!

Much Love,

Kimberly

Aren't I though Sharon? No, Ive not been here in a number of days. We are in the middle of building as well as partying, and Ive been working late nights on both, drawing plans and writing to friends who couldnt join us all all that sort of thing. Draw breath soon.

Sharon,
I am in such despair over Ann. I usually have a good handle on things but this has been really hard for me. I am scared. I am having such selfish thoughts. Here she is losing everything and all I can think about is myself and my fears of my future. I know better. I am stronger in the Lord than this. I know I shouldn't have these fears, these feelings but right now I do. I absolutely hate this beast! I hate the fear that envelops me. I know, I should look to the good Lord for peace. I know I should trust Him. I know this life isn't about me. I was created to worship Him. But right now I am feeling very human.
Linda

With Ann on one side and You on the other.

Thank you Sequoia, you are so sweet!

Thinking of you also. just a little down time. Hope and pray you are doing ok my friend. BIG HUGS!!!
