Why do people HATE instead of LOVE?!

This world is full of so much HATRED!! The news of Norway being bombed yesterday saddens my heart, among all the many other acts of crime that happens every day.... Why can't people LOVE one another like the Bible instructs us to do. Growing up, I don't ever remember hearing of so much hatred... I think the world has gotten worse in the last 15 years. I guess we'll never have peace until God returns...

Changes...or are they?

I normally do well with changes, but some people have a difficult time with them...which is understandable. Several people have asked me how I deal with Kendall going off to school at App State in Boone. Well, at first, it was definitely difficult to do. But, it's been a great thing with our relationship. I think we have become a lot closer and understanding of one another. We're both adults and both have our own lives, but also share and enjoy our times together as well!! When he's off at school, I enjoy going to my job every day because I LOVE my kids and co-workers. I love coming home on weeknights and watching my tv shows - Bachelor(ette), Big Brother, etc. I enjoy hanging out with my girls on weekends when Kendall isn't here. I usually pass the time by reading books, doing puzzles, etc. When he's up in Boone, he goes to classes and then hangs out with the guys at his apartment. He does his guy things and he enjoys doing that. Kendall & I talk to each other every day via text and/or phone calls. Talking to him every day helps because it's always great hearing your lover's voice! I visit Kendall at school at least once every month, and that helps time pass by quicker! Even though it's lonely at times, I rely on the fact that every day that goes by is one day closer that we'll be in each others' arms again!! :) He graduates in December and then will hopefully be going to grad school. Please pray for him as he prepares for the GRE and takes that test in August.

Kendall, if you read this - I LOVE YOU & can't wait to see you again! :)

Good News!!

My colonoscopy results came back normal. Praise the Lord! :) He is good!! However, they still found bacteria in my intestines...which has accumulated over time making my mid-region look bigger than normal. With this said, I have to change my diet for 4 weeks to see if this will help. My doctor also prescribed me with some meds to take when I'm having abdominal pains. I can see a big difference in my mid-region just over the last week... it's gone down some! YAY! :)

Thanks for all the prayers I received. I can truly feel them coming in!!

I would like to ask for some prayers for some people I know. Not going to say who or what their requests are, because in the end, God knows exactly who and what!! Just pray for these people if you have a second in your day.

I'm going to try and update this more often! Love you guys... have a great Friday & an enjoyable weekend, because YOU deserve to!!
