TIME TO CIRCLE THE WAGONS GIRLS

Good Morning Circle Friends,

  Madison .. Thanks for checking in and letting us know how you are.  Is the radiation the doctor is referring to from breast cancer rads?  I was giving that a lot of thought after you posted.  Is that why it takes so long to recover our energy after radiation?  It's no wonder your stomach is so upset.  Especially with the BMB.  Glad you are able to visit your DD this weekend.  Hope she is well and in the U.S. for awhile. 

  Slonedeb  ... Keeping you in my thoughts. I know you've been in such pain lately and are having difficulty walking.  I pray your doctors can help you.  I worry about you every day.

  Lisa ... Saw the pic of your granddaughter in another thread ... she's so cute!

  Nicki ... See you're right behind me this morning .. have a great Sunday!  Praying all your tests this week are negative!!

  DebC ... I know you've had a rough week ... You, your family and Babe are in my thoughts.  My wonderful Bobo is so old, and I'm so afraid of losing him.  He's been by my side through the darkest times of my.

   Nico ... I hope your chemo treatment on Friday went okay and you aren't having bad side-effects. I didn't have chemo, and it scares me to death ... I never want to go through that.

I know I've missed most of the CG's, but its time to get busy with the day.  Tim leaves in the morning and there's always a rush of things to get done.

Lots of love to all from A to Z.

Good morning circle.  I'm getting my first cup of coffee and looking over all the wagons we have circled around the camp.  Lots are still sleeping, but some of you are up and working around the camp, gardening, walking, and enjoying a beautiful day.

 Nicki, my school is small, and even if history is my main subject area, sometimes we have to fill in and teach other classes as needed.  I taught Algebra in CA for many years, and it actually was my first love.  I've also taught Spanish in the past, so I'm familiar with these classes, just need to do some brush up.  Economics falls under my department as social studies.  I am still teaching 7th grade history, US History, and World History.  It's going to be a busy year.

Fat free pizza sounds wonderful. I need to find that recipe.

Beautiful child!  I love the red hat.

hello dreamers glad to see al of you has everyone abanoned  the other site sherry good to see you again  pammy where are you i ned your guidance right now girls i am afraid i am losing my faith in god and it is scaring me really bad i read how much everyone on here is suffering and i ask myself why god lets this hapen to al of us and why he doesnt do anything i dont know maybe its the chem talking  but i do know i am suffering really bad maybe thats why i am questioing hin because i am relly in a bad way right now i caant hardly walk forthe sweeling in my legs and feet ive lost my appeal for food again my liver hurts and i just feel awful but girls know i love al of you deb from ky

slonedeb, I am here, honey.  I wish I knew what to say.  When my mom was in so much pain I had a lot of questions.  She kept telling me not to ever doubt God, that He was going to take care of her, and in the end, she went home to Him.  I believe that God understands when we have questions and doubts.  I believe that He loves us even when we feel we can't love him.  I know that He loves you.  My own personal belief is that God doesn't cause bad things to happen.  But when they do happen, he is with us all the way.  We just have to look to him and trust him to know what is best in the long run. You are so ill sweet deb and it doesn't seem to be getting any better.  Perhaps it is time to quit worrying and just think about where you are and what you want to do.  Stay off  your feet and try to lessen the pain. Pain fogs our minds up so quickly.   I would like to offer a prayer for you and for all who suffer here and hope I have offended no one.

Dear Father in Heaven... I know that you are a merciful God.  I humbly ask you Lord to come and dwell among us now.  This is a special hour of need for us.  We are hurting, sad, scared and lonely.  Thank you for our circle finding its way back together.  Thank you for each sister here who reaches out to the rest of us as we reach back.  I pray especially for debbie slone.... dear Lord please be with her.  Let her feel your presence and take away her pain.  Help her to know what to do, and give her assurance that you do love her and are with her.  Be with each sister here Lord.  They are each so special to me.  Take away pain and disease.  Replace it with comfort and peace.  It is in the name of your precious son, Jesus, I pray.  Amen

As Puppy always says... Jesus take the wheel....

Pammy

SloneDeb-

You are always in my prayers.  Those dark days are hard. on days when I don't seem to have the energy to pray, or I feel like God is not listening to me, it gives me great comfort to know that my friends and family are praying for me.  I hope you can take that same comfort knowing we are praying for you

Hugs

Deb C

For Everyone who needs a helping hand tonight.

Dear Sweet Deb....You have been so strong through this battle. I agree with Pam, God doesn't cause bad things to happen, we have pain, unhappiness, etc because of sin coming into the world due to the fall of Adam and Eve. It is much easier to be spiritual when things are going well for us, try to recall what Christ went through for us and that always gives me strength.

We were never promised that we would have no trials, pain or problems but that we would be provided the faith to endure.  Ask for strength, we have not because we ask not.

Gracious God, all around me people are suffering. I do not understand the reasons for suffering, I know that you are a God of Love, A God of Compassion; I pray that you will be with Deb. Wrap your arms of Grace around her; let her know she is in your embrace. Lord let her know that she can just crawl up in your lap for comfort because she is your child and that she may find comfort in this. I ask these things in the name of our Lord.    Amen

Lisa, glad to hear you are ok.  My sister was in a gym in Walnut and had to be evacuated.  She said it was pretty scary, but they are ok.  My niece still had oxygen tanks in her house for her babies, but so they were a little nervous, but there were no problems.  Scary!  I hope all southern cal people are ok.

I have asked the pink warrior to stop by and send some healing light and hope for all of those who are going through hard times. 

DebC, Zaro, and Slonedeb:  Im thinking of you this morning and praying today is a better day.

Love to everyone.

Nicki
