TGIF ~ July 28, 2006

Ok, it's been a few days... Only because I haven't had much to say. I still don't. Today, I just wanted to put this picture of my flowers on my blog. (The ceramic dog's name is Harley.)

If you hadn't read my blog recently, then check out the one before this one. There is a funny picture of the youth / associate minister at my church.

Anyway, for those who knew about the business I was trying to aquire... well, it's not going to happen. The owner wants $10k down. & I don't know anyone who would lend me that or even co-sign on a loan for me... so, that was the "big door" that needed to be closed or opened... & God told me this is not where he wanted me by SLAMMING the door! I did tell the owner if he changes his mind (when he doesn't sell it in a few months) to give me a call, to see I'm still willing to do a lease agreement. I have a hunch I may here from him come October or so.

God has His reasons as to why that opportunity was even presented to me. I think a lot has to do with, the fact it was to help pull me out of my depression. It gave me something to focus on. I have to say, if that is why, then God's timing is always perfect! Now, I just have to keep on, keeping on. (So to speak! LOL)

Wow, I guess I did have something to say. LOL

Well, not much else... so, have a GREAT Friday! Later, B!

Hi! Here I am again... so soon you say? LOL...  I just had to share this photo... this is our associate / youth minister, Scott Williams. He had lost a challenge to the kids. He said if they brought in over $300 for one of our missions, he'd dye his hear blue & get a mohawk. & if they went over $350, he'd let 5 kids throw whip cream pies at him. They brought in almost $400, & well... you can see the results... & this was just after church today. What a GREAT sport you are Scott!!! Thanks Kids!  (See more photos in the LCC Photos album... to the right of this blog on the front page.)

Not much else going on. Dave went on a Progressive Dinner Ride & brought me home my dinner. (I was supposed to go, but my knees are acting up... & I didn't want to be on a 450lb motorcycle, if they tried to "give out".) Thanks to all who cooked & for sending some home with Dave... It was DELICIOUS!

Well, it's getting late. So, maybe more tomorrow! Later all, B!

July 21, 2006 @ 6:40 a.m.

Can you believe I'm actually up this early ... & working on the computer no less!!  Well, I had to get up to finish packing Dave's lunch. Besides, I'm trying to get myself back on a normal schedule.

Well, I guess that needs an explanation. For those who don't know, I've been off work since May 5th... on short term disability. It's a long story, but I'm not hurt... physically that is. I am getting better... only took 3 months to start to come around! (The right meds will do that! LOL) Anyway, I still have a long road ahead of me. Especially with trying to figure out how early I can take my meds... you see, they put me to sleep (along with other things)... but for some reason, it's never consistant. Neither is how long I stay asleep... HOWEVER... it is SOLID sleep!! It feels good... VERY GOOD... & it's been years since I've had such solid sleep. Now if we can only do something about Dave's snoring. LOL  (TMI?? (too much info?) LOL)

Well, I don't want to blab too much. Just wanted to let you all know I'm doing ok... as best as I can for now!

Please feel free to reply & I'll see if I can keep up with this blog... again!! Take care, B!

P.S. Check out my pastor & his wife's blog about their mission trip to Hong Kong...  http://www.watershongkong.blogspot.com/

P.P.S. The picture is of our dogs... (left) Coleman is a Border Collie... & (right) Sunny is a Corgi Boxer mix.... we think... anyone know what she is?? These two have been quite a comfort to me while I've been off. I thank God everyday for them!

Hello! This will be quick... only have couple minutes left of lunch.

Anyway, home computer is on the fritz... so, I will try to add another entry soon as it's working again... SO MUCH TO TELL & SO LITTLE TIME!!

Well, time to go now! Talk to you all later, B! :)

March 12, 2006 - (updated 10:36pm)...

Hi All!!!  Sorry it's been a while. I have been sick all week. (Bronchititus, sp?)

Dave is home from Daytona Bike Weeks!  The picture attached to this blog is the Sunrise from his hotel room.

To see more of his pics, go to the album labeled: "Dave's Daytona Bike Week Pics". & Yes, there is only 1 album consisting of 23 photos. (Photos to be titled later!) (I know... no where close to what I took in California. But hey, he was on his bike most of the time. Where as I was in a plane or car. LOL )

Anyway, I'll have more of my own to post later & also, more blogging... (Yes, Dad, I'll remember to tell about how we met Chuck Liddell (The UFC #1 World Light Heavyweight Champion... There's more to it that I want to put in a different blog.)

Besides it's almost RACE time!! NASCAR that is!

Talk to you all later, B!

Ok, I have taken all the "individual" albums of my California photos & put them in to ONE! They're probably not in any specific order... but I'm sure you'll enjoy the same.

I'll blog tomorrow sometime (hopefully during lunch) & I'll tell you all about how Dad & I met Chuck Liddell (sp?)

Night!!

March 05, 2006

I'M HOME!!! Finally!!!  Whew! what a trip!  (Been home since Friday 5:46a is when plane landed.)

This entry is going to be short & not highlighted... just wanted you all to know I got home safe. I'll compose another entry later. Right now, I need to go eat.

Later, B!

Ok all, I think this may be my last post... MAYBE!! (Just depends on how all things go!!)

New pics are in the "More California Pics Folder".

Pic included with this entry is of an eagle on the side of a hill right near Cal-Poly. Dad thinks the students (when not sure) put it up there. Not sure why. Maybe I'll have to do some research to find out.

Anyway, the sunset was from last night. Gorgeous, isn't?? Well, remember how I mentioned about the "green flash / spark" & we saw it on Tuesday night? Well... I saw it AGAIN last night!!  It's a VERY RARE to begin with... but to see it TWICE is even more rare!!

Well, I have to get things packed up now, to make my way back to Snowy Ohio.  LOL

So, if I have time, I'll blog again.

I hope you've all enjoyed my ramblings this week! I know I sure have enjoyed sharing with you all!

Talk to you all later, B!
