To me, working
in Nursing is an
extension of the hands of Jesus Christ.
I believe that He
has given me
the capacity to do this...in my own
strength I would
have quit this type of nursing years
ago
because it
is heart wrenching most of the
time....especially
when God takes His little ones home to
be with Him.
|
Many
times I have been
there with the families of these
children when this has happened. Each
time God uses it in a very special way.
I have learned so much through each of
these experiences...none are the same.
Each child is unique and a special gift
from God...for however long they are
here with us on this
earth.
Some of you may question why
little
children seemingly suffer so...and yet,
the answers are found in the
scriptures...
2
Cor. 4:15 states
"For all things are for your
sakes that the abundant grace might
through the thanksgiving of many redound
to the glory of God."
Truly it is so that God
may receive glory from us thru these
trials. So we will look to Him as our
source of everything, knowing that His
plans for our lives are perfect...even
when our children go home to be with
Him.
I have a
very precious online friend, who has the
most amazin' sense of humor...she
constantly
plays practical jokes on a number of us
webbies...especially with sending us
some hilarious photos of herself...she
gave her permission to put these on the
internet....her nick
is "Granny Ratbag"..so you can see
already she is a lot of
laughs!!...
You can click here to view
her pictures:

height of her ballet
career...LOL!!

very
talented songwriter, and singer, who has
published an awesome Gospel Music album

She
wrote the most awesome poem
about children, and to me it makes my
page much more worthwhile to be linked

this special lady has. It is worth

MY HOBBIES
<
p>
My favorite pasttime
is "GOURMET
COOKING". I have
dabbled some in HOME CATERING
moreover as a hobby part time...only
because it is sooooo much fun to do!!!!
When its no
longer fun you won't find me doing it!!!
"LOL"
I have a great sense
of humor, and I absolutely "love" to
make people
laugh!!
BTW....I call this photo "my favorite
band"
(LOL)...they will
play for
you now while I am thinking of what to
say next!!!!
My greatest
affection, besides my love
for the Lord Jesus Christ,
is for my 3 dogs...
"RUBY"..."TRACEY"...and,
"LINDSAY" (my
babies!!) You can bet they are
"spoiled rotten"
too!!! ("LOL").
They can be rascals though...playing
"tag" in the middle of the night up and
down the stairs...LOL...stealing each
others toys and bones...and food...or
trying to get into the rubbish bins!!
When company comes, they are
quite
the "entertainers"...showing off for
their "puppy biscuits"...competing with
one another putting on a show!! They
also are exceptional watchdogs.
"Nothing," or "no-one" gets by our fence
unnoticed!! Lindsay stands guard as
police chief!!
We now have a new
addition
to
the family "GRACIE"....born May 22nd....the most
adorable Beagle pup you ever
laid eyes on!!
She
has already
joined the
ranks of the "rascals"....claiming
"Lindsay" (my Lab/Dalmation) as her 2nd
Mommy...rather than the 2 other Beagles
that are here!! (Right now those 2
still
ignore the little
squirt!!).
She is the only one of the Beagles that
"bays"...especially when her ball rolls
under the chair and she can't get it!!!
ROTFL.....she is quite expressive for
such a "wee" one!!
This one is rather independent...plays
with her toys on her own...has mastered
quite a number of tricks..because she
literally "copies" the others...and that
means she has copied some of the naughty
things they do too..."LOL"...she keeps
them running!!! Me
too!!!
Someday I will get around to
scanning
their pictures for you....and you will
say the usual "AWWWW...they're so
cute"... because they
are!!!!!
I also
am an avid baseball
fan...I absolutely love the
BALTIMORE
ORIOLES ~~
doesn't
matter to me how
they fare at the end of the season, I
just love watching them play!!!
Recently, I got back into
watching
football, renewing my long time loving
interest in the awesome MINNESOTA
VIKINGS
!!! I have
been called
somewhat of a "traitor," because I also
love watching the "GREEN BAY
PACKERS." My
roommate is an avid "Packer Backer" too.
With the help of 2 other dear online
friends, "LADY-NAN," and,
"JACOBSGRAM,"
a
Christian Chat
Room
called "THE MERCY SEAT
IRC" was
created.
Late
night chatting is hopping
in this place!! Feel free to stop
by...we generally start chatting anytime
after 11:00 p.m.
EDT.
I also found another
awesome Chat
Room and News Group that doesn't allow
"Hacking," "Flaming," or
"Trolls," and it
provides immense help to fellow
webbies..please check this site out
thanks!!
Other things I like
to do...when time permits, that
is..
- watch the Winter Olympics
- view Old Classic Movies
- Musicals
- Listen to Gospel Music

Ragtime too..

matter of fact!! I am a firm believer
that it should be lived to the
fullest!!
