My Time With You...

 


The last couple of weeks have seemed to fly by at a breakneck pace.  It seems that there is something going on every single day, so one thing that I really missed was spending time with my husband.  We've got to be around each other, but we haven't gotten to do our special dates in a while.  The dates sometimes consisted of grocery shopping at Walmart or getting a quick bite at a fast food drive-through and then discussing the day.  As we prepare for our daughters graduation, helping my husband's father move, and general church business, we've not been able to have our little dates.  While driving home from work, the thought entered my head that I missed those times set aside for just him and me.  When we get home, we unwind in different ways.  I read a book, and he watches television.  So on my drive home, I had a longing for just a moment set aside to just talk.  I've been sick all weekend, so my husband ended up sitting on the bed beside me this evening talking for a moment just like I wanted.  The thought occurred to me that this is how God feels about us.  He is just waiting for a moment to talk with us.  We want to so desperately unwind, so we choose our methods, but He still waits patiently for just a moment set aside for just us and Him.  I found that I miss my time with Him the most.  I want to set that time aside to just tell Him about my day and listen to His words of love.  Let's not forget our time with Him.

Have a great week high-heeled warriors!

Update: My Daughter's Latest EEG Six Years This Week After Brain Surgery

Image
  A couple of weeks ago, I went with my daughter to her yearly neurologist appointment. They have slowly been lowering her seizure medication. It's easy to worry after all that we've been through, but as we visited the bathroom in the waiting room, we had a little reminder to trust God. There on the paper towel dispenser was a little Jesus. It reminded us He's always with us, even in hard times. The neurologist wanted to do a new EEG. The last one was a couple of years ago and was inconclusive. We scheduled the new EEG for last week. After prayer and remembering Jesus is with us, we went. She received the results the next day. No seizure or abnormal activity! Every year that passes is good news. We are so thankful that God is faithful, and Jesus is always with us! Have a great week high-heeled warriors!

Another Year Older, Another Year Past

Image
  As this year quickly comes to an end and a new year begins, I've thought about some of the interesting experiences I've had as I've aged. See if any of these ring true for you, as well. I've experienced a world with no internet and a world where you can live stream anything to anyone. I've lived in multiple decades and two centuries. I've battled neighbors for use of the party-line telephone and used a smart phone anywhere I want, other than under the support beam in my house and in Yellowstone National Park. I've lived through the same clothing trend 3 different times in the last forty-some-odd years. I've watched television in black and white on a massive set that passes as furniture in a living room and owned a television flat enough to pass for a picture.  I've experienced the only dishwasher being me and lived with the convenience of having a dishwasher in my house. I've experienced the time when owning a computer meant paying thousands

A Night to Shine

Image
 I got the privilege to participate in Night to Shine sponsored by the Tim Tebo Foundation. Night to Shine is a special needs prom/ball for all ages. My husband and I  were contacted the night before to see if we could be buddies for two of the guests. I wasn't sure what to expect but was excited to help out. After squeezing into a dress that fit, I waited for my buddy. I had a sweet young lady that was afraid of loud sounds and flashes of light. She asked if I could hold her hand the whole time. I told her, "Absolutely!" We lined up and were called to ride in the limousine provided. My buddy mentioned she had never gone for a ride in a limo, so she was very excited. They filled the limo with guests and buddies and told me they thought they could fit two more. The two on the back seat scooted enough for my buddy to sit, but I noticed a dilemma. There was a three inch spot of seat left by the door. I, however, do not have a three-inch rear-end. The limo driver and I excha
