the missing piece

• today was a day with out a song in my heart
• I so miss papa hubby
• I am never sure why some days I have joy
• and other days I don't even know what to say
• he is gone, vanished and yet I need him here
• I accept and I know and I feel the loss
• and the pain creeps back in.....
• and I want to ask why?
• but I don't ..........
• because there is no reason to the why....
• that would fill this hole in my heart
• so instead I ask .........that
• my heart will not become bitter.
• that my days will filled with...
• purpose.....
• that my strugglings will
• become sweeter--

my day is done--

• my head cold sent me to bed for most of the day and now my nose matches Rudolf-s nose- so I will share my blessings here and go back to bed where I am eating crackers--------

1. my red gloves that I use in bed at night after putting on a good hand lotion- I leave them on for about 20 minutes and I find that this is ''a good thing'' for my hands-- they are just normal dollar store gloves- sometimes I do my feet this way too and just use ordinary socks......
2. my Lord and Savior who is leading me through the storms followed with rainbows... in my life
3. my tea thermos- which keeps my tea hot while I do my computer- other wise I would drink the tea cold-I keep this off my desk but handy so that I do not have laptop tea...
4. a new month- February which has a nice day in the middle to remind us of loving each other- we know, enough from God's word to do this every day and it is nice to have a special day to share chocolates -
5. warmer weather here today- we were warmer here than Florida which is a real treat- funny how we consider a few degrees above freezing warm and another place considers that same few degrees cold...
6. Dogman - our dog- who does not report me for neglect when we/I forget to feed him ( I did forget until this afternoon but he was quick to forgive me)- and he is always willing to wait patiently to have his carrots peeled..
7. crackers to eat in my bed and the dust buster which then cleans the crumbs off the bed ------
8. my old house which has been a blessing to papa and I as we shared our life together as one- the roof does not leak - the walls protect us and it is a home filled with peace and joy and Miss Ashley's stuff mixed in with Oma's stuff-----
9. Miss Ashley who carries a burden to heavy for her age but is still willing to carry it...... for the sake of Oma
10. good cleaners to clean the pans that Miss Ashley burns when she cooks and a fan to recycle the smoke--LOL

good night to all- from Meme with gentle hugs

and under the ''c''......

it is time to turn over another letter .......
and here is the ''c''....
the first 'c' for me is CHRIST CHILD- -- where would I be today if we/I had no Christ to believe in.......to lean on.....to follow.......to love.......to forgive us/me........ with out Christ in my life I would BE helpless....lost.....and hopeless but because of Christ I have hope and help and I am found...
another 'c' at our house is carrots-- not so much for me as for Dogman- he seems to think carrots are bought entirely for him - and yes, I wash them and peel them and cut them into nice little bites- he prefers raw over cooked but will gladly eat both-- so carrots are on the menu more nights than not..
a ''c'' for today is a cold as in a head cold - which means I talk funny and my nose is red and I should have took some stock in kleenex companies- this is day three so I should only have 4 days to go- I learned that if you go to a doctor with a cold it will last 7 days and if you do not go to a doctor- the cold will last a week.............
''c'' is for cinnamon which is one of my favorite smells and spices- I chew cinnamon gum and eat cinnamon candies and like cinnamon toast but I do not like cinnamon in my coffee and or tea
''c'' could be for coffee if I could drink it but I have a allergy to the ground coffee which is not good thing......so that is why I drink tea......
''c'' is for chocolate - except for hot chocolate- I love chocolate chocolate but lately chocolate does not love me- apparently it is not quite as good as it should be to me - it is not good to my inflamed stomach or h. hernia- sigh- which means I am off of chocolate for a time....
''c'' could be for comma or commas but I never remember to use them in writing or talking.......so I will have to omit ''c'' is for comma ...........
there are many more ''c'' blessings in my life but I think the cold has put my thinking on hold..
soon to be back and sending caring hugs, Meme
