Sunrise in Florida

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul  PSALM 143:8

Love liberates everything--Maya Angelou

Therefore, rid yourself of all malice. 1 Peter 2:1

You might have been hurt. Betrayed. Backstabbed. Lied about. Harassed. Bullied. It stinks; there's not getting around it. you have to let the bitterness go.  You need to forgive, even if the person doesn't seem sorry. Jesus said on the cross, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." Were his tormentors sorry? No. In fact, many of them were mocking Him in His time of agony. He forgave them anyway.

Open your heart's door and shoo the grudge away. Then, forgive the person who gave it to you. You will feel better. Your heart will fill lighter. And if that grudge ever finds its way back and scratches at your door, pretend you are not home.

Remember, if you hold grudges, you won't be able to hold much else.

Another gloomy rainy day. Thank God we haven't had any flooding.

photoshopped

I spent part of the day editing a picture. Also try to figure out how to download pictures. Didn't have to take a nap, although I slept for at least 10 hours last night. Going to read this evening. Also saw Marie Heitkamp. Seems very nice. Poor thing had to listen to me babble.

hummingbird

I wrapped a black shawl around me and sat next to the opened window with my camera. As soon as the hummingbird perched on the branch, I slowly stretched my arm out and snapped this picture. I think this is the female because there is no red ring around it's neck. Hummed, sipped, zipped away. I hope that God will bless them with many children and they will visit the feeder.

Sleep Apnea Testing this Saturday

This Saturday, I finally go in for a sleep study. I'm a little nervous about people watching me. I hope they get to the bottom of my fatigue. Chances are I have sleep apnea, because I know I stop breathing in the night. How often, I don't know?

Out of the darkness comes light.

June 15, 2011

Spent the winter in Florida. It was filled with sunshine and darkness.  Kustard died and Mom's alzheimer has slightly worsened. I was a mess when they left. I was always tired but thought it was from the stress of losing Kustard and Mom's worsening alzheimer. I am fatigued and have to find out if I have sleep apnea, if my hypothyroid meds aren't strong enough,if it's my pain meds,  restless leg syndrome or lack of iron. Unfortunately I haven't lost any weight. But too tired to exercise. I pray that God gives Norm and I patience while we wait for answers.  I would just love to go somewhere and relax,  ride with the dolpins, and fly through trees and find a comfortable spot on one of the clouds to sleep. Not be responsible for anyone for just once. PS. I have been resting a lot.
