Moving the clocks forward. It would have been 52 years and my oldest grandson turns 18 tomorrow

I was so excited today when I got up to get ready for my volunteer job. I left the house a few minutes before 6am and it was just getting light outside. I love that it has been gradually getting lighter earlier each morning. Tomorrow it won't be light till just before 7 am. Tonight we "Spring Forward" I do not like changing the time. I wish, especially since we voted to stop this crazy constant change, that our vote would have been taken seriously. I wish they would let us have what we want and stop this crazy time change. Tomorrow would be my 52nd wedding anniversary. I miss my husband so much. He was truly my best friend. While I am much more at peace and I know God has a plan for me, I still long to have a companion. I pray about it often asking God to fill this void the best way for what he has for me. I don't know if that will be a person or the presence of the Holy Spirit in a way don't know now. I would love a Godly, fun man in my life but that may not be what God wants for me. Either way I wait on God to fill this void as only He knows best. Eighteen years ago in 2007, my husband I spent the day in the hospital waiting for our grandson to arrive. He finally came in time for us to still go out for a nice anniversary dinner. Our grandson was the best anniversary present we ever received. He has been a joy and I am so proud of him because he is truly a wonderful person. He is a great water polo athlete and he has a beautiful and smart girlfriend. He has plans for college and while I know he has chosen to be a doctor I forget what kind but I think it has something to do with the brain. He is super smart and I know whatever he puts his hand to he will do a great job. No pictures today because I am on a new computer. I haven't transfered my picture yet. I hope to do that soon. God bless you all and I hope to be on here more often.

  On Fridays we post 5 things about the week that were a blessing. It is hosted by  Susanne at  Living to Tell the Story ~~~ This one, Titus, will be 10 soon.  He and I spend Wednesday afternoons together. He does homework, get a snack and we watch Sponge Bob or Phineas and Ferb, then we cook dinner before the rest of the family comes home.   He is so smart and cooks like he is much older. My Friday's Fave Five are: #1. See above.  I love that boy and I am so glad he is not interested yet in after school clubs.  We get to spend the time I never got when he was a baby.  His Mom worked while the two older ones were between birth and 5 years.  I got to love on them for her, but with Titus she stayed home.  I feel very blessed to have this time with him now. #2.  I had lunch with my son yesterday and he is doing so good.  God is healing him and he is now going to volunteer at the hospital.  This ...

Friday's Fave Five

  I love Fridays when I get to post my favorite five things or blessings about the week.  There are always more than five so it is sometimes hard to pick. To see others who participate go to Living to Tell the Story and click on the respondents in the comments.  Many of them participate. 1. From last Friday night to yesterday I was sick.  It was a flu and a sinus infection, but thankfully not the flu. Yesterday I got to go to my son's new house.  We were outside most of the time so I was not having to stay a long way away from my grands and son.  2.  Even though everything is shut down I am blessed to go to a church that has can post all services online.  I got to enjoy our Women Rock Bible Study online .  It was so good. 3.  I may have spent most of my vacation at home sick but I still have 4 more days that I can go do something now that I am feeling much, much better. 4.  I have some sewing to do and have been doing s...

Friday's Fave Five

  https://susannesspace.blogspot.com/   Click this link to see the host and others who participate in Friday's Fave Five.  This picture is of my dear friend Lucy who went to be with the Lord just a few days after Christmas.  In fact just a minute after learning my son was being air lifted to Loma Linda Hospital I received a call from one of the Reverends at our church telling me she has died.   Why such a sad memory on a day when I am to tell my Fave Fives of the week? 1. Friends.  I love my friends (sisters in Jesus) so much and have a wonderful week of zoom meetings where I have had the blessing of talking to many of them.  I have had text messages, phone calls, and chats on Face Book.  The best thing is that we talk of Jesus and how present He has been in our lives during this time.  Lucy was a wonderful sister in the Lord and I thought of her a bit this week.  I talked with her daughter by text and we cri...
