I really didn't hear her the first time. It sounded like the mwamwa lady off of Charlie Brown. And I figured it was a wrong number or trying to sale me something. But it just got to me today. I've been on edge today.

I have hit a root to my fears I think, but unsure why. At any rate, God will use this. It is just hard right now. I'm excited and terrified.

Hello Helen,
Just do not have any thing to say. Boring , nothing but grocery shopping for me.
I am home all the time....... Oh! golly we went to church Sunday and it sure was
good to be there.
When my husband was alive we went every Sunday and Wed.
Until his pain got real bad. And then I guess it got to a point [which he kept to him self]
were he must have know his time was up. So we moved in here , so I would have a family
to be with......... He was the best husband any one could ask for........ I did not realize all
the pain he had till he was gone. I did not know he was doing it for me !!!!!
As I sit and do nothing, I start to realize , how kind he was and caring for me... for the time
he would be gone........ I sure was blessed !
So how are you doing Helen ? hope all is well with you !

It's usually after summer is over that it becomes easier to become depressed. Just be careful that you don't okay?

Do you do stuff like knitting for your grandkids ? I love knitting.
In fact I get too obsessed with it and stay up too late. haha!
I tried crochet , but I never got the hang of it much.

Anyway, keep your chin up...You are still very precious to God.
He hasn't finished with you yet. :)

God bless...Helen

Hello Nancy,
Well, if I lived closer they would ! But this is way to far..... I timed it one time and it took
a hour and 10 min. and that was driving at a fast speed , if a cop was around we would get a
ticket !
And my family......... Son , wife, and 8 children would also go............ ! :)

HI Helen,

Well, I did do knitting and crochet,,, but am not interested in that these day's.
I have now been buying color books and doing them , but there are not many that I can
do, child kind.......... And I have found a few that are nice, but there are some that are
so much riddled like....... weird to me! I would go for more walks, but the drive way and
the streets are ????? farm area ! no pavement ...........! Not real bad to walk on but
after a while, the feet start to hurt............. :) :( oh well............ life old age......

So how are things going for you ? Are you visiting family ?
And how are you doing and feeling ?

Hi Marlene , I'm here :)

I only just got on here today...so a late start to my day...Friday morning is one of my work mornings.

WE have had a lovely October and two weeks in November...but today we have heavy snow and icy roads. But as the last six weeks have been so nice, none of us are complaining. :)

Sounds like busy times.
Large families like like used to be the norm back before the turn of 1900 by the WW1 and 1920's families had shrunk.
Today it is more unusual to have lots of children ...even Catholics don't have as many these days.

My dad had 8 brothers and 1 sister on their farm. My grandmother buried five of them while alive. Many children are a great joy but great grief also.

Even so I wouldn't have minded more. Except for Jesus opening my wife's womb after 14 years we'd have had none. Thank you Jesus. You do all things well.
