Hi Rosey, CD and all

I'm fine thanks though sooo tired too. Hard job, this mummying, isn't it, though the boys are lovely at the moment, bless them.

Had a chat with mum yesterday and discovered that she stopped breathing several times during her operation last week . Mum and Dad didn't mention this at the time, since they were busy looking after themselves and teaching the nurses what to do too, it seems So, once again, huge thanks for your prayers.

Continuing to pray for dd, Rosey. Is there any way that the school would consider moving her down a year?

Prayers for that job interview CD.

Any ideas on how I can Christmatise my name ladies?

Prayers for Susie, MTGAA and all, too.

God bless.

DingdongMaryBonhigh · 05/12/2007 11:57

Hi all

I am feeling ill and demoralised, so some prayers and hugs would be welcome please.

at your mum NQGU, glad she is alright now though.

How about NotQuiteChristmasYet? or NotQuiteBornYet?

DingdongMaryBonhigh · 05/12/2007 12:09

Or for New Year, you could have NotQuitethrownup

NotquiteChristmasyet · 05/12/2007 12:30

LOL Mary

How's that?

Prayers and hugs coming your way.

Steve and OJ are at the hospital today, by the way, for a scan to see if the chemo has helped at all. Praying for them.

God bless all.

AngelGabrielhidinginaCaveman · 05/12/2007 15:04

Praying for STeve and OJ, thanks for bringing them to our attention - and loving the name change NQCY

Going to change my name to noafyet! Did an early doors pg test and have convinced myself that if I turn the test sideways i can see an ultra feint second line. However, anyone else looking at it would only see one line. Pah, what do they know? . Still, no af is good news!

Anyway, Harrisey, how did the exam go?

Am worrried about Sooz - can you ring her CD? or text me her number and I'll ring. Unfortunately she's not in the phone book under either Zippadi or Sooz!!

Roseylea · 05/12/2007 15:04

I'm praying for you Mary. What's up?

I need to ask for prayer / help please! I have been asked to do a reading "of my choice" on a christmas theme for this Sunday's informal worship service, "and to share a few thoughts on that reading"...it's a short service with carols and the children performing songs, so they don't want a long sermon as such. Please could you pray as I prepare?

I'm thinking of using Micah 5, veses 2 to 5 (maybe leaving out v.3 as it's slightly obscure and I wouldn't be able to do it justice in the time given - is that all right, do you think? I'll leave the bit about the Assyrians out too...!) here And going down the line of how God has always had his heart set on reaching the ends of the earth, and wanting all people everywhere to know his "shalom" peace (that word 'shalom' has such depth of meaning, I'll look it up in the Hebrew later), and how Jesus' birth was the start of God's great plan for the world - "peace on earth" is what God has for each one of us as the most wonderful christmas persent imaginable, and it's also what He calls us to be bringers of - peace, hope, joy and love. What do you think?

AngelGabrielhidinginaCaveman · 05/12/2007 15:06

I'm liking that Rosey! Nice and simple but very meaningful and striking too, iyswim?

DingdongMaryBonhigh · 05/12/2007 16:00

Hi Rosey,

I've emailed you...

That reading is lovely, although it would be a shame to leave out "until the time when she who is in labour has brought forth".

I had a look in CW times and seasons, and that reading is suggested for lessons & carols, so you might find a decent amount of info on the web. It sounds lovely though. If I can help, shout!

And Angel Gabriel? I think you should be abiding, not hiding. A faint positive is still a positive. Tomorrow it'll be there, bold as brass!

PandaG · 05/12/2007 16:04

hugs and prayers for your peace Mary. YOu know where I am if you want a chat... {{{hugs}}}

am busy, knackered but happy !

Fab that DD went into school without tears today Rosey - am liking your 'thought' outline too.

I have 2 managers at work - one goes to my church. She has asked me if I would be happy to do a reading at the preschool Nativity - am delighted to be able to

Also one child at nursery wanted to sing a song at snack time today - he sang 'Shine Jesus Shine' then said that was all he knew, so I sang the chorus and he joined in with me - lovely to be able to in a non-church nursery feels like I really should be there!

DingdongMaryBonhigh · 05/12/2007 16:15

Thanks Panda, I feel a little better after a sleep, but guess who slept through picking DD up? I woke up at 3:10, said to DS we'd got to go get her, DS had wet himself, and while I was changing him, the school phoned up to see where I was... when I get round there (school is next door but one), the vicar's daughter was also there, so I collected her too (as the vicar is away and mum was at work, something had done wrong re: pickup...).

I may give you a call later if that's OK...

That was really sweet re: child, sounds like you're having a great time there!

notsofarnow · 05/12/2007 17:08

mary same here I am in and free after about 7p.m

Am off to do swim lessons in a bit. Just been to school fayre spent money on nothing as usual.

Bramshott · 05/12/2007 17:18

I don't come onto this thread very often, but Dippy and NorthernLurker 'know' me from the April 07 thread. I'd be grateful if anyone had time to say a prayer for my Grandpa, who is battling cancer in his 80s.

NorthernLurkerwithastarontop · 05/12/2007 17:21

Hi Bramshott - I've got time! Good to 'see' you here - let us know how he does - are you able to get to see him at all?

Bramshott · 05/12/2007 17:32

We will see them over Christmas I hope. Just don't want the girls to tire him (and Granny, who is doing all the ferrying back and forth to hospital etc) out. It was all going pretty well - chemotherapy, things shrinking back etc, but now he has been in hosp again, and they've said no more chemotherapy until the New Year to give him a chance to recover from it.

DingdongMaryBonhigh · 05/12/2007 17:51

Bramshott - will pray. Will he be home over Christmas?

harrisey · 05/12/2007 19:45

Hi you guys

Exam was much better than expected - must have been you guys. I amnaged to write for the entire 2 hours of the exam, got down loads of stuff that I couldnt have told you 2 mins before it started. I think i have passed, and that is what I need, though a B would help as that is what I need to get into the masters.

Have had pizza and a big glass of celebratory wine! I also handed in my Essay on CHristianity in Latin AMerica today, adn have one more to hand in tomorrow, so I am on top of everything.

Oh roll on the holidays!!!

DippyChristmas · 05/12/2007 21:10

Good stuff harrisey and yey for pizza and wine Not much more to go......keep focussed!! xx

Yes, yes to the verse Rosey - subtle, yet powerful How was DD today?

at finding out about your mum stopping breathing, it is in some ways more shocking to hear about these things after the actual event - my mum often ends up in A&E / hospital and I only know about it a week or so after the event - makes me a bit and a bit Hope she is doing well though, continuing to pray for her recovery. How is your dad coping? xx Great Christmas name btw

Thank you for beinging Steve and OJ to our attention - any news on that scan? Praying. xx

Hope it is a BFP, CC ..... .... Will call Sooz, I think - is it a bit late!!?

Great to "see" you here, Bramshott - So plesed you felt you could come here to ask for prayers for your Grandpa - Positive stuff things seem to be shrinking etc; but so hard for him and so hard on your Grandma too. xx Praying for a miracle and for a super special Christmas for them too xx Do drop by when you can and let us know how he is getting on. xxxx

{{{{{{Mary}}}}}} God loves you, you know - "I won't let go until you Bless me" xx

Interview tomorrow - eeeeeeeeek!!

MarsSelectionBoxLady · 05/12/2007 23:14

Me again ladies. Can you pray that my clients give birth and need me on separate days please? Even if it's one straight after the other.

Twin mum being induced tonight
Another client in early labour
Third client probably being induced early next week.

My clients are like buses. Nothing for ages then 3 at once!

Oh and that I manage to get my Christmas appeal parcel packed and sent.

Many thanks.

worzella · 06/12/2007 00:06

HI everyone - still praying and lurking . One day I may even get round to properly posting!

AngelGabrielhidinginaCaveman · 06/12/2007 07:42

Heya Worz, glad to hear you're lurking

OK lots of prayer for my 'imaginary' 2nd pink line to turn into a real one! I've done another test this morning and I'm sure I can see something....or maybe it's all in my head . Dh is fast asleep and he won't thank me for waking him up to look for a very very faint line.

love and prayers to you all, esp for your ladies Mars. God knows when each one of those lo's will arrive so we can trust Him to work it out for you.

May we all see the wonder of our God in everything we do today. Amen.

DippyChristmas · 06/12/2007 07:58

Praying Mars. xx Praying CC. xx Good to "see" you Worz, and praying fory ou too. xx

DippyChristmas · 06/12/2007 13:32

Just got back. Feeling very demoralised. I just want a job. Is it so much to ask!? I'll find out whether I got it or not some time tomorrow. My guesses are 100% on not.
