Hia DO

DutchOma · 16/03/2009 21:14

Waves back to Suzi. I can only do about 20 minutes in the garden, then I'm bushed. The result of those daily 20 minutes, though is quite good.

CaptainDippy · 16/03/2009 21:37

Want to come and dig over my veggie patch!!?

BouncingTurtle · 17/03/2009 12:33

Sorry have been so neglectful, am now catching up properly. Just been very busy with this studying I have been doing.

BelgianBun - huge congrats! Praying for sticky bean

Notsofarnow - praying for your dd. Glad things are looking better for her at school. Congrats on the new job, hope it is going ok.

Swaliswan - have you got your P&T yet? I had to at your dd's 'tickles' description, is it definitely chicken pox? Hope she is okay!

Notquitegrownup - praying for some sunshine for you! Sympathies on the cold, DH and I have been down with it as well, horrid chesty coughs are not pleasant!
Aww at your ds2's bereavement!

Webstermum - thinking of you and praying that God will soothe you with the sense of the Holy Spirit.

Lottiejenkins - what a lovely boy Wilf is! God bless the little children

MaryBS - sorry to hear you didn't get the job you wanted. But when God closes a door, somewhere he opens a window. It sounds like that wasn't the path you were meant to tread. Am in awe of you being on Eggheads! Good luck with your interview. What sort of journey is it? Mainly urban or motorway?

CaptainDippy - HG sounds deeply unpleasant, hope your friend has a problem free pgcy!

PandaG - We all need patience at times to deal with our dcs... even I do and I just have one small one!! Goodness knows how I'll cope with 2

Zipadisoozi - hope you had a good day at the BGS - sounded like fun

Myjobismum - how is Naomi, is she getting over her cold? Sorry to hear things have been tough, praying that they will improve and Naomi becomes more settled - sounds like sep anx, remember ds going through phases of it from about 5mos, he still gets it now and again now, but sometimes the focus is daddy rather than mummy.

Amber - men eh! There either dying (when they have a sniffle) or climbing mountains on a broken leg - you just can't win with them! Hope he is ok.

Hello to DutchOma - how is your dd's new arrival getting on?

Any news from CaptainCaveman? Hope her dsis and dniece are okay.

Sorry if I have missed anyone!

ANOTHER flying visit, but just want to THANK GOD for his great mercies

amber32002 · 17/03/2009 19:13

DutchOma, this kind of image: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWymXNPaU7g

Sums up life with anyone coping with people with an ASD, to be honest, though with less scratching

Prayers continuing for all.

Disenchanted3 · 17/03/2009 19:16

Why do I only ever talk to god when i want something?

please pray for my grandad, theres nothing we can do but i think the end is near, well i know it is, please give him courage and strength. Im so scared so I cant imagine how he feels.

DutchOma · 17/03/2009 19:33

Amber, how funny to see that video. Oh, I miss my cat. How are you feeling now? Hope dh is taking things easy.
Disechanted, sweetheart, we are all a bit like that. God hears us before we even ask. I'm praying for your grandad to see that there is nothing to be fearful about. The Lord will be waiting for him and take him home.
Mary, hope you are alright.
Prayers fo all.

amber32002 · 17/03/2009 19:38

Disenchanted3, will pray for you and for your Grandad. He's in safe hands with God, but that's not a lot of consolation for us at the time.

Disenchanted3 · 17/03/2009 19:55

you honestly dont know how comforting your words are.

thankyou

MaryBS · 18/03/2009 07:04

Disenchanted, the important thing is that you CAN feel you can pray if you want something. Don't feel guilty. Praying for comfort for both you and your grandad.

BT - it'll be A roads. Apparently though, I have to watch out for "carrot lorries" that get in the way

I am fine, DO, but had a bit of a bad experience on Saturday, and talked it through with my spiritual director last night. That, together with a couple of affirming emails I received, has lifted my spirits and helped me see some purpose in what happened Praise God!

Love the image of cat herding, Amber

Webstermum, praying that the new meds settle down and you start to feel a lot better!

Praying for everyone else who has asked for prayers, may God scoop you all up and give you a big hug (except Amber, who can have a virtual one, as God understands about hugs! )

Leannabanana · 18/03/2009 07:20

morning ladies

my 4yr old niece begins the intensification stage of her treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia today.....please pray for her. Her name is Amelia Yves and my sisters name is Lynsey. Hopefully this disease is not going to be terminal God willing, but her treatment is about to get really quite nasty. poor little mite.

Prayers for your niece, Leannabanana, and for your dad, Justabout. May God be there for us all. Thanks for the virtual hug, Mary. And do watch out for the carrot lorries - they nearly had me off the road when I was up there last year!!

Notquitegrownup · 18/03/2009 11:38

Good morning

Leannababana - special prayers for your little neice and for all of your family at this time.

Hiya Justa. Welcome back. Praying.

Disenchanted - prayers for your Grandad, that he might know real peace at this time. Does he have a faith? Prayers for you too, that you will have the right words to say, the right smiles to smile at him, and that you will know God holding you close through this time and beyond . . .

God bless all.

CaptainDippy · 18/03/2009 11:43

Morning!

So much pain and suffering here

One of my DD1's little friends from her class's mum has just be DX with cancer and my friend has just found out her bro's brain tumour is malignant and terminal Help these precious people, Lord!!

Praying the end is near for your Grandad Disenchanted, may he find rest and peace in God's loving arms. He will be safe there.

Oh Le-Banana, your poor little niece. Praying the treatment is effective for her, poor brave little thing. Please keep us informed when you can, thank you

Nice to "see" you back, "Just About" ....prayers that your dad remains comfortable as they await a prognosis for him. God wrap him up in His love as only He can

Just had text back from CC, O is much better today Her sis and DNiece keep getting nits and sis used nit shampoo that has coconut, which they are both allergic to in it Other than that, she says there is not change for them atm

OP posts:
BouncingTurtle · 18/03/2009 16:35

Oh no CD! My friend is allergic to coconut and she finds it tough trying to find suitable hair and body products because of it!

Such sadness here today, praying for those who are seriously ill but have hope of recovery that it comes quickly. For those that are terminal, I pray for them to have peace for their families to gain strength from the Holy Spirit, knowing their loved ones will soon be with God.
