It's usually awe and inspiration. OK, I'm sad and angry that you have to go through this at all... but I'm shocked people would say things to you like that! (Or look at you like that!) <br /><br />I'm glad you had good parts too... I'm jealous of the shopping. But I bet you knew that...Christine @ 12,450miles https://www.blogger.com/profile/06593782429987800305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29524164.post-74981019245620641552011-09-26T23:54:47.267-05:002011-09-26T23:54:47.267-05:00Another beautiful blog entry:) I have had quite t...Another beautiful blog entry:) I have had quite the day and to come here and read this, wowza..this has been the best part of mine...well everything BUT the part about what silly people say without thinking!

That is one of my favorite childhood memories. I never get to smell that anymore. <br />I am so sorry you are going to have to go through chemo again, but I know our Lord and Saviour will carry you through again and give you the strength and comfort you need. Please remember that MANY, MANY people that you have never even met are lifting you in prayer every. single. day! I put you on the prayer list in my Sunday School class yesterday. God is faithful and He knows your needs and struggles. If He is allowing this season in your life, He has a plan in place just for you. We know His plans for you are good, to prosper you and not to harm you. (Jer. 29:11) God bless you!subgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05604267718386928097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29524164.post-42677384905544388242011-09-26T16:01:44.632-05:002011-09-26T16:01:44.632-05:00I like Brenda was surprised at the smell of tobacc...I like Brenda was surprised at the smell of tobacco being fired.

Too cute! And the photo of you and Brian....uh, Christmas card! : )<br /><br />I would say I can't believe people have said those things to you, but sometimes even well meaning people don't think before they speak. I had to laugh as you described "the look" perfectly! My brother was in a wheelchair for several years and got lots of the "sympathy" stares - he started making faces back at them! LOL Just a thought! : )<br /><br />Thinking of you and praying for you!!Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02579970837417998184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29524164.post-21659618153687846392011-09-26T12:45:15.068-05:002011-09-26T12:45:15.068-05:00Love those pointers, but shocked about what people...Love those pointers, but shocked about what people have said to you. I probably shouldn't be, because people tell pregnant women horrible birth stories and waiting adoptive parents horrible adoption stories. Why are people so bizarre?

You are life and you are living it well and showing all of us how to keep going. Live your moments! Thanks for the encouragement- I am just taking a quick break as I too do the pre-chemo routine of getting this house ready for mom to be gone for a couple of not so great days :) I'm praying for you!Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595982706357639001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29524164.post-14539560373391793422011-09-26T10:08:52.748-05:002011-09-26T10:08:52.748-05:00never figured you thanking for tobacco barn smoke:...never figured you thanking for tobacco barn smoke:)I guess us country folks are rubbing off on you:) Hope you have a good day today!Brenda Shearonnoreply@blogger.com
