Roomforalittleone - That the house sale continues speedily and completes asap and that God would provide for them and help them make ends meet financially. For her sickness to ease in her pregnancy. And for her friend who has sadly lost a baby, who was sleeping.
BabyBeatrice- who has been diagnosed with cancer at only 14 months, Mum is a long term MNer who has name changed. Prayers that God would surround the family at this time and heal her DD.
Blackeyedsusan- for good health, for energy, for her two children as she struggles to get them support at School and for her Mum. For more support at Church and to not feel isolated or lonely.
Jan- For peace, for her DD to sleep better, for her to be able to put firm boundaries in place and that her H would reach acceptance and peace about the situation and learn to respect her, so they can reach a place of good co parenting. That God would help her as she begins to investigate divorce and proceed. And that the meeting goes well with her parents and in laws and that a line would be drawn in the sand.
MHD-for her body and lungs to recover from the pneumonia fully and completely and her lungs to strengthen, so that she doesn't relapse at all but enjoys this festive season with her family.
amberlight-For her family to recover from the norovirus and for peace and reconciliation with an old friend.
MrsRhettButler- for her friends Mum who is very ill in hospital with a 5% chance of survival and young children.
HaveALittleFaith -for her energy as she grows this baby.
Cloutiedumpling- that her DD settles into nursery for her return to work and adjusts to bottles/ cups.
LewisFan- Her Nan has passed away, prayers for her family.
CharlotteCollinsislost-Prayers for her as she makes big decisions about her future as she plans to separate.
Positiveattitude-for her DD over Christmas, as her Mum is so far away. For home sickness to ease with PA and DS. That her children back home get support from PA's old Church and the heating is fixed asap. And that the organisation trace the money and PA then has the funds she needs whilst they serve God out there.
Kaykat- Prayers for her in her difficult marriage, for protection, peace and for God to help her and surround her with people, so she can end things, have a safe home and for her DS.
LiftUpYourGingerHeadsOYeCurls-for her as she does her thesis, for energy, concentration, clarity, ability to see the connections as well as the bigger picture AND be able to express it in writing.
Dontsteponthemomeraths - Prayers especially for her lovely man (LM) as the court case heads to High Court, there have been so many delays but it should get there in January. That God would make a way, where there is no way, help him to afford the court fees and that he will finally have the closure; contact with his children and a maintenance agreement in place that is fair to him, his ex wife and to the children. For justice. It's 6 years since divorce due to her infidelity and it is so hard for him. The children and ex wife live in another Country and the legal system there is very different. Prayers that he has freedom from his past and doesn't live in it anymore but breaks free and moves forward in all God has for him.
And for my brother, that his thumb heals fully and that with the rehabilitation he regains movement and use and that his nerves and feelings across the top of his hand come back. The outlook is not positive currently.

If I've missed anything, please add it.

Happy New Year!

Not a great start here feeling sick, hopefully feeling better in the morning!

DontstepontheBaubles · 01/01/2013 08:50

Oh Lord I've woken in a foul mood and I cannot even blame it on pmt as I've just finished. I'm very tired today, DS woke me a lot last night but why am I so cross and grumpy. The kids are getting it in the neck for everything and it's not even 9am yet Sad

I'm hiding in my room trying to find my inner zen praying. It's not working Sad

HarktheGingerCurlangelssing · 01/01/2013 09:38

Happy New Year! Well the cold symptoms are finally starting to lift. No one appears to have a fever. That's a start. Thanks your prayers. Nephew didn't get worse, which was a relief.

DutchOmainthestable · 01/01/2013 09:56

Prayers for all in this (happy?) New Year. Jesus is Lord.
Prayers for all feeling unwell.
Mome you have been holding a lot of grumpiness in over the past few days. Today is a new day. The weather isn't too bad. Go and do a bit of puddle jumping.

Badvoc · 01/01/2013 11:00

aggghhh ds has taken a torch apart and lost the bulb. I am trying to search a firly messy living room for a small glass object. ... please pray.. small glass object and small feet do not go together.

MaryBS · 01/01/2013 13:46

Eek BES, hope and pray you find it!

As for things coming out of my mouth. I've mostly ceased caring what other people think, unless there's good reason to care. For example if I insulted someone. :)

blackeyedsusan · 01/01/2013 14:04

no luck so far.

DutchOmainthestable · 01/01/2013 14:51

Prayed to St Anthony for you. Saint of lost causes!

blackeyedsusan · 01/01/2013 16:18

Shock you saying i am a lost cause oma?

I have a tidier living room at least.they are running around the middle and i am pretty sure it iss not there now.

DutchOmainthestable · 01/01/2013 16:35

When all is said and done we are all lost causes, till Jesus saves us. So in that respect, no.. Where did you (or he) last have it?

blackeyedsusan · 01/01/2013 18:02

well the bit that holds the bulb was under the sofa so I aam hoping the bulb has gone right under neath at the back. I took all the cushions off and pulled out the bed bit to look but did not stick my hand right undeneath. it could also be in the box of trrain track. i will empty it out after bed time to check. I am going to sort the detritus aound the edge of the room too in bit. being ill has left things a bit messy. eating tea first then going to take some pain killers as sinues are playing up again.

MaryBS · 01/01/2013 18:02

Lost causes is St Jude, St Anthony is lost items (the ex-RC pedant is strong in this one... Wink)

DutchOmainthestable · 01/01/2013 19:39

Bicycle shops are good for new bulbs.

Oh yes, Mary, I knew that really.

SESthebrave · 02/01/2013 08:47

Morning all!

Thought I'd try not to lose you :)

BES - did the bulb appear?

Jan - we can wallow in lack of sleep together. DD is teething and waking every 1-2hrs at the moment. Prayers for sleep needed!

Praying for you all that you will feel God's blessing upon you, his love surround you and his strength fill you.

Badvoc · 02/01/2013 08:55

Good morning everyone.
Am hoping to book a holiday today for July (Northumberland) and to phone the OU to discuss restarting my degree!
Onwards and upwards....
Praying for lost bulbs, more sleep and relief from illness x

ZipadiSoozi · 02/01/2013 12:13
