Complete... and onto the next one. 

It’s a curious thing. There are things we just don’t discuss. My son knows of the truth, and he told me something that just yells we are at the end of this system. 
Let’s just say, in the world, some things were not public fodder. Well, they are now. And, even he is shocked. 
I can remember a brother saying in his talk, if it wasn’t for Jehovah’s protection, we could not leave the hall, not being attacked by wicked spirits. I thought that strange. 
We are safe.  

If you have a Trader Joe's by try their ice cream (non-dairy) green tea and thai tea ice cream wrapped in soft rice dough--Ill have to look it up because I ate it all and threw the box away.  They are suppose to be individual servings but I thin that is a stretch...😃

Emma gently cleared her throat so I said, ‘The government advice is that you don’t speak for 14 days.’
 
(Rightly, she ignored me. And I got an earful when I later started coughing when I disturbed some dust.)

It just dawned on me. My heart is in the new system. I cannot tell you why I feel that way, but I do. 
I know we have work to do here, and now, but...hard to articulate. We have a cemetery on our land. My husbands people. His Mom, Dad, aunts, uncles cousins. Some he never met. 
You know I want him here with me to greet them. The reality just gets closer and closer. 
Makes not much sense, I know. Who to share it with, but you dear friends! 

Terrible night thus far at work.  Three ER patients wIting for me to shuffle beds and make room.  Janitor just taped off half my hallway to wax the floor.  Another patient just came out of her room stark naked and dropped to the floor and did ‘the worm’ on the janitors freshly waxed floor as all the staff looked on it shock and disbelief.  The janitor was the first to speak. ‘Oh no! Not on my freshly waxed floor!’  What concerns me is this was the biggest problem for him. Just another night on a busy rehab floor...

Shhhhhhh.....I'm following you

Hi Karen!   That's me waving hi!

Shhhhhhh.....I'm following you

I went to the cardiologist today. He’s had all the proper testing done. Today was diagnosis time. Found a small hole in my heart, plus a murmur. However...for my age he gave me a clean bill of health, heart wise! He was impressed with my taking serrapeptase, (thank you, Vernalee!) Plus, he wants me to start taking flaxseed oil! It was a load being removed from me. And, I’m thankful to Jehovah!

My on-going assignment, for a while anyway. I've been concerned about the depth of my study routine. As convenient as this touch and read is for personal study, I feel like I am lacking. I just ordered a large bible. And song book. I'm going to transfer my notes from my years used, study bible to my digital bible, and my paper copy. I've lost things, just changing devices! 
The song book? One week a month, I'm leaving my iPad at home! I will march off, with trepidation, sans, iPad! 
I've  ended up dependent on having electricity and the internet to study. I need the satisfaction of the Bible and publications. I've always loved books. And, I miss that feel of the open page.  

Had an MRI yesterday. First one. The guy said it sounds like a jackhammer. Want music? I said yes, and figured Bob Seger would divert my mind from business at hand. Well, now, who knew good oi Bob does Christmas music?Yep. Here I am in that tube with little drummer boy in my ears! It was funny in an ironic way. 
The guy said, "you didn't know he did Christmas music". No, I said, I avoid Christmas music. Big time. 
Now, to just not have another MRI! 

You know, we go to sleep, thinking about our brothers and sisters in Russia. Wake up in the night, pray, she's a tear or two, pray more,  then we wake up, with the same on our mind. I think of Mal. 3:16. As this system crumbles, we just become dearer to one another, and to Jehovah. We are okay. Wonderfully okay. But that tear sneaks in. One day, it will be of pure unadulterated joy. 
I thank you my brothers and sisters for being here. 

"A good life is made of good relationships". That's the conclusion of an in depth study made over generations. The biggest factor that makes a rich life, love. 
We didn't need an extensive study to come to that conclusion! We are emcompased by love! How blessed we are!  

My iPad, well, it embarrassed me, but yet it was funny. I had the last scripture of the talk on it, talk was over, i went to put it down to stand up for the song, and, as i live and breathe, it said the last scripture in fast! Sounded like rap. The speaker and lots of others were laughing. Out Loud. I could not shut it up. Off to the rest room. It took me some time, even then. One sister said she laughed so much tears were coming. Could not top. Even our iPad expert could not figure it out. I figured out don't just turn the sound down. Mute it! We have a small hall, and it was heard by all! 

Congratulations !  Today, May 11th marks my 19 years of serving Jehovah! These last three have been the hardest--but I am still here trying to serve Jah to the best of my ability.
