Long. long road

Today was the longest day I have had in a while. Can't wait til my girl gets home tomorrow and it is Easter weekend!! Night ya'll, Lynn

There ARE Angels

I'm not sure, but I think that strawberries have to be planted every year. But I went by my strawberry bed from last year and there are strawberry plants and actual strawberries on the vine. I felt like my MaMa was there with me at that minute. I still miss her SO much. She loved flowers and loved to plant strawberries. There are so many questions that I want to ask her and not just about plants. I want to know about when she was young and about when she and Dada married. If you have grandparents, spend ALL the time with them that you can. One day you will want them and they won't be there.

Monday, Monday

I am truly happy that I have a job to go to every day but as Sunday evening has come and gone, I am dreading Monday morning. I am hurting more and more in my hands. I'm not sure what is causing it either.
We had a wonderful surprise this evening at church. Our dear friends, Larry and Gerry Ward, came to surprise us and attend church with us. Larry agreed to sing one song for us. He is coming back in May for a full concert. We didn't want them to leave. Thank you God for all the blessings that you give us every day. I am truly grateful. Night ya'll, Lynn

The Sun Will (Did) Come Out Tomorrow

Some burdens have been lifted and I physically feel SO much lighter. I was blessed so much at church today. I had a student in Sunday School, two for children's message and two for Children's Church. Kids are so honest and so much fun. The story that the little boy told about heaven needs to be heeded. Jesus thinks that children are very important.
As Casey says... This is random. I have stopped taking Effexor. I am trying to stop all of the synthetic chemicals that I can. But, that said, I am having trouble with the hot flashes. I may have go back on it. I'd rather do that... than take hormones. Even though I know that in postmenopausal women, it can actually prevent breast cancer. I had the fan in my hand the whole day at church. It's not a fun feeling. Effexor is better than taking a shower one minute and feeling like I jumped back in the water the next minute. Men, be glad that the Lord blessed you by sparing you from menopause. What an oxymoron --- MEN - O - PAUSE. Men's mid-life crisises are their menopauss but theirs is fun. Convertibles, new girlfriends, new hobbies. Do you girls see a problem here ?? Afternoon ya'll, Lynn

Play That Funky Music White Boy

That is the only title that I can think of that comes close to my feelings this week. I posted on facebook that I was frustrated, aggravated, irritated and anything else you want to add to that. A facebook friend that
I went to school with asked to borrow it. I said sure, it's free. That was the one chuckle that I have had this week. The dreary weather that hung on and on didn't help any either. Even my hands are hurting. Maybe next week will be better when the sun is shining and I deal with some of the burdens that I have had. The sun will come out tomorrow....maybe that is my theme for next week.....Night ya'll, Lynn

It's a noon wedding, lunch, running in store quickly, and taking Joshua lunch in kinda day

Today was an unusual day. I woke up and worked til noon. Then James and I went to church where he performed a wedding ceremony. We then went to lunch and got Joshua a carry out tray. I ran in a store very quickly as it was going out of business. I got a new set of initials for my car. Back to work til 6 then back to church for revival. I was so disappointed. I took popcorn, drink, and a movie for the kiddies. One wasn't there and one was there and slept the whole time. Maybe tomorrow night. Home to eat chicken bog and Chopped with my sweetie. Night ya'll, Lynn

Man or I should say Woman on the Run Thursday, March 29, 2011

The last blog post that I wrote was March 12th I think. I am too busy. I was at Myrtle Beach last week and had limited and very slow internet con. so to my defense, it wern't easy to post. Just a little brag, the weather was gorgeous. Tuesday, it was 80 degrees and I come home to a frost warning. What is up with that?? We met a Canadian named Stevie B. I have not laughed that hard in a long time.
We have had two people saved and joined the church since I've been gone. If that happens then I'll gladly go back to the beach and suffer for some new church members!!
Church was packed tonight for revival. I took the two little ones downstairs so that they could play and the adults not be disturbed.
I was ready to get back to work today. I was ready to call some and see how they were doing. All is well at Alere and at the Rodgers household. Take care and nith ya'll, Lynn

Sunday, February 27, 2011

When I walked into the kitchen this morning, I took a look at the bird feeder outside the window. It was covered with sparrows and then a family of red birds came to the feeder. They were so beautiful. The father was bright red and told me spring was on the way. I stood there and worshipped as I watched the birds feed and thought of the verse about God taking care of the sparrows and taking care of us. As a child of God, I love being taken care of. It's a feeling that us females like. Thank you God for caring for us. Afternoon ya'll, Lynn

26 February 2011

Sorry I haven't been on for a while friends. I have been super busy at work and haven't felt too good. I have been going to the chiropractor and I had a massage on Thursday. I also had a dermatology appointment on Thursday. This is the week of doctors. I have a dentist appt. on Monday. Whew!! Gotta get ready for Sunday School. Night ya'll, Lynn

15 February 2011

Yesterday was the Sweetest Day. I got up and started to work. On his way out the door, my sweetie walked by my office and he said,"there will be a delivery for you today." I waited all day and.... nothing. I had to leave for the chiropractor so I left. When I got home, there were 24 roses in a box, on top were 12 of my favorite doughnuts: red velvet with cream cheese frosting, glazed with chocolate frosting, and raspberry filled. And on top of that was.... a card. If I was smart, there would be a pic here. There is a pic on my facebook page. My swetie finished off the day with a yummy steak, baked potato, and grilled broccoli candlelight dinner. Great food, great company, great gifts = priceless!! Night ya'll, Lynn

:-( 11 February 2011 :-(

Sad Day!!! Went all the way to Greenville and couldn't get in to Winter Jam!! To say I am disappointed is an understatement. Maybe we can get in at Columbia in March. We'll see, Night ya'll, Lynn

27 January 2011

Way, way,way past my bedtime!!!! Night ya'll, Lynn

Sinus, Sinus, Go Away!!

I woke up with a sinus headache and that ruled the day. We took Champ back to Dr. Mauldin, the vet, and they removed the stitches. Everything looked good except two or three areas where the stitches had almost ingrown into the skin. They bled a little bit. He also had a small little pimple that had popped up near the incision that Doc said would open and drain. He was shaking like a leaf when he realized where he was. He will not eat the treats that Doc tries to give him. Doc really likes Champ and he went out, got cheese and gave him 2 pieces of cheese and told him that they weren't all bad there. He is a great vet. Late visit, to CVS for meds, and then home. Night ya'll, Lynn

23 January 2011 Ahhhhh!!!!!

James and I went to my sister's and nephew's house on Friday and came home Saturday. It felt sooo good to get in MY bed last night. No bed sleeps better than your own. Thank you, Lord for soft beds. I'm going to make this short and sweet 'cause I'mm gonna take a nap. Sleep tight. Afternoon ya'll, Lynn

20 January 2011 Whew!!

I have had A day!! Usually, on Thursday, it is my Monday and I can breathe a sigh of relief and start over. I'm not complaining but I was on the phone for over 2 hours with one pt. It is hard talking with him sometimes because my brother-in-love had multiple myeloma, just like this pt. does. That's why I love my job. I can stay on the phone as long as I need to with them. I did get in touch with several pts. this afternoon so I am caught up. Maybe I can breathe tomorrow. Night ya'll Lynn
