It's been one thing after another here--and my online time has been pretty limited.

The last time I posted in this thread, I was crying my eyes out over the loss of Lady. I think I'm dealing with that much better now, although when I go out to the van to go somewhere, the first thing I see is her empty kennel-- and I think about her not ever being there to greet me again.

I have so much going, that I don't have time to dwell on the thoughts of that though.

I'm still involved in all the prior things that I've mentioned which were church related...we had the Young at Heart Luncheon yesterday-- tonight is home fellowship group--and tomorrow is the Ladies Prayer Luncheon.

Time is swiftly passing and we'll be swamped with things to do for church camps. We will be going in the next couple of weeks to clean up the dust that has accumulated in the dorms-- and get them prepared for the camps.

There will be two camps, back to back during the first couple of weeks of June. We've been informed that both Mississippi district and Tennessee district ALJC have chosen to use our camps as their camps this year. We're expecting around 200 campers... possibly more. Our dorms will house 240 campers. At least I'm not having to stay at the camp at night... I can sleep at home in my own bed since I live about 8 minutes from the church. I'll be there from mid afternoon until well after night services are over-- because I'm helping with supper preparation, serving and cleanup... and after service concessions and cleanup. I'm looking forward to it, I know I will enjoy doing it-- even if I will be exhausted by the time it's all over.

Samantha will be graduating soon--just a small ceremony at church-- and we're having her graduation reception on June 30. I am trying to get things planned for that, and hope that I don't leave out anything important. I've got my order written down for the invitations, cap & gown, etc... and I have to get the photos done to include with the invitations. I was going to take her today to the Historic district in Corinth to do some photos-- but it's supposed to rain so we are postponing that till another day. I have plenty that I can do here... there never seems to be a shortage of things to do.

I had so many things running through my mind last night, that it was after 2am when I finally got to sleep. Then I was back up at 4:45 to fix breakfast for hubby and get his lunch packed for work. I could have gone back to bed for a couple of hours-- but didn't want to give up my prayer & devotional time before the kids woke up.

I guess I've rambled enough....

Hope everyone has a great day!

Tina,

I am so glad that you are doing better. It is very difficult to lose something you value so much. You have a right to be sad. Enjoy your camps and your Samantha's graduation...those are precious memories.

Have a Blessed Day, Rhoni

I think I have finally gotten caught up on reading... I want to thank you all for the prayers & encouraging words...

Anyone know how long before QueenEsther will be back? I figured she would probably take 8 weeks or so off work at least-- and it seems like forever since she's been here. I know she is enjoying every minute with that precious new baby though.. she may not ever want to go back to work at her job.....

Rhoni, you have a beautiful family!! I really enjoyed getting to see the pictures. Thanks for sharing them with us.

myhalo-- those are great pictures of your boys. I wish my son would stand still long enough for us to take pictures like that. Usually by the time I grab my digital camera, turn it on (in hopes of getting a picture of him doing something) He manages to realize what I am doing, and vanishes at least halfway out of the picture. I can't imagine having 4 boys. I have my hands full, (and my patience tried daily) with the one boy.

Margie, You are missed. Hope that your computer is fixed soon!!

CareyM, you are missed. Hope everything is going well with your move.

Is there any update from AmazingGrace? I'm still praying for her...

***reaches over and removes the "gag" from Michlow so that she can talk again**

My gabby gal's and guys...I am here in a way I read Gabby's every day....I get an email with all the new posts...


I just don't have a deep interest in the forum anymore...I am tired of the constant arguing and bickering over things...I know God can not be pleased with the hurtful things and attitudes that prevail this anonymous format...I used to be right in there but that was because I felt it was my job to keep everyone straight, I know now that was just plain ridiculous.

I have left my church AGAIN...because I can not sit in the pews and be a hypocrite. I don't agree and cannot support the doctrine, of skewed scripture, and I have no intentions of trying to set them straight that is God's work not mine. I love everyone there, but felt so out of place, and there is such misery there. The church is in trouble and it truly hurts me to see the pain etched in their faces...but they will not let the spirit lead them or anyone else...

I said all that to say my life has changed dramatically over the past month or so, and I have a renewed relationship with my Father who is my creator and loves me beyond what I can comprehend. I have learned that I am worthy of that love, before I never felt that way!

So I am here, just not posting much...I keep up though...love the pictures...love the posts...love you all....until next time....bless you all and may God be ever present in your thoughts and hearts!!!
