NL - so sorry to hear about DH's job. What does he do? Will pray that many doors will become open to you...

This is a prayer for anyone who has lost someone, but particularly Mufti's DH came to mind when I read this:

"We can shed tears that they have gone
Or we can smile that they have lived.
We can close our eyes and pray that they will come back
Or we can open our eyes and see all the good they have left us.
Our hearts can be empty because we cannot see them
Or our hearts can be full with the love we have shared.
We can turn our backs on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or we can be happy for tomorrow, because of yesterday.
We can remember them and only that they have gone
Or we can cherish their memory and let it live on.
We can cry and close our minds, be empty and turn our backs
Or we can do what they would have wanted:
Smile, open our eyes, love and go on."

Essay is stuck... I really want to finish it tonight though...

NorthernLurker · 21/11/2007 17:00

Thanks Mary - dh works in IT.
That is a lovely prayer.
Do hope you can crack the essay tonight.

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 17:26

Praying for you and dh NL, and as Mary says, praying that the right doors will open up. God is indeed good.

Praying for you with essay work to do mary - I'm also about to start reading for next essay.....Contemporary issues in public service management anyone?

ttc prayers continue xxx

MaryBS · 21/11/2007 17:28

More of a poem than a prayer, actually . I ought to know the difference by now

MaryBS · 21/11/2007 19:56

Hallelujah! I think the essay is finished. I'm not totally happy with it, but I've had enough of it! I'm going to leave it alone for a few days, before going back to tidy it up at some point, prior to submission! THANK YOU for all your prayers!

How is everyone this evening? Its a bit quiet...

NorthernLurker · 21/11/2007 20:04

Hi Mary - well done - Hallelujah indeed!

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 20:35

All good here Mary - Praise God that you finished your essay, well done you!

just off to find something for you all....

podglet · 21/11/2007 20:35

Hello girls!

Mufti - was thinking of you today, have been lurking for the last few days. That prayer was read at my Gran's funeral in September Mary, we substituted the "them" for "she" - it is so fitting. Just made me have a little weep again - silly hormones

CD - hope that nasty cold goes soon lovely, have a nice hot toddy.

DO - hope you are enjoying Holland.

Mary - good luck with the sermon and essay!

CC - ttc vibes to you

Please may I have prayers for my first consultants appointment tomorrow. I am now 16 + 4 and I just know I have the same excess fluid probs I did with DS - I am huge already This probably means I will have to be induced or even elective c-section at 38 weeks which I really want to avoid. However, as long as bean and I are safe, that's what really matters.

We've booked our 4d scan too for Jan 12th - v exciting!

MaryBS · 21/11/2007 20:35

ooo prezzies....

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 20:37

MaryBS · 21/11/2007 20:37

Cross-posted podglet. I'd not seen it before, beautiful isn't it? Praying for your scan tomorrow. I was induced both times with mine...

MaryBS · 21/11/2007 20:38

CC, that's SCARY! {quiver}

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 20:38

God's other eye!

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 20:41

and another one Now, I'm not implying our God has 3 eyes!! Just brilliant photography and captures the true beauty of God's universe

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 20:42

Hi Podglet! Praying for you tomorrow, what time is your appt? Trust God to work it all out for you. How is work this week -did you get any help with the new computer system?

lulumama · 21/11/2007 20:52

just wanted to post and say thankyou to you for your prayers for mine and Rubyslippers grandma. i visited her yesterday, and am pleased to say she looked and sounded comfortbale, and asked me to brush her hair. she begins radiotherapy soon, and although it will not cure her, it will make her more comfortable. thank you so much for the prayers, it means a lot.

podglet · 21/11/2007 20:55

Hey CC - appointment is at 10.45. Work is ok, no extra help with the system but I am proud of myself that I am working it out on my own was extremely pleased with myself today for raising 2 contracts and ordering the goods from the system - gosh I am sad! I even got a small pay rise today was so not expecting that after dropping them in it by going back to work pg again but they wanted ro bring me in line with the rest of the department and they are so pleased with the way I have slotted back in...

sorry, blowing own trumpet off now to bring myself down a peg or two!

CaptainCaveman · 21/11/2007 20:58

Sermon? Give me a break, I've only just finished the essay

We've had an eventful afternoon, with a visit to the minor injuries clinic with DS. He's headbutted the playground again, earning a massive egg-shaped bump and dirt in the grave. Thank God, he's OK though!

NorthernLurker · 22/11/2007 16:47

Oh Mary - poor ds! Are you ok - I hate any of the dc's being ill - find it really hard.

MaryBS · 22/11/2007 16:52

dirt in the grave? What am I on? It was going to be "dirt and gravel in the wound"...

NL - its not the first time, and less severe than before, he's been to hospital twice now with concussion. One of the times, they thought he'd got a fractured skull!
