Why?
I went to visit Jason yesterday, and his spirits were a little low. He said he just wanted to go home. Of course, he knows he can't but he just feels so sick. His sweet little wife kept reminding him he had to stay so he could get better so they could go home. I want to question God so bad, as to why this had to happen. Even though I know I shouldn't.
Jason and Lindsey are so young and they have three precious little boys. I know God is in control and I know things could be worse. Jason is a special person to me and always has been. He is such a funny person. When Jason is around there is always laughter. He really enjoys comparing people to animals. We use to sit in church and he would whisper in my ear, don't so and so look like a rooster, or a ardvark, or a possuum. It took everthing I had in me not to burst out laughing. Yea, when Jason is around it was always a good time. He enjoys the simple things in life.
As his body weakens it scares him. Which is understandable.. He has shown so much strength already.. There has been an out pouring of support from his family and friends. It has restored my faith in mankind. So many people get involved in there own lifes that they forget the person next to them that is hurting. This disease has affected there who family. It has drawn them closer. Lindsey and Jason have a great family (on both sides). They have really supported them
so much. There church families have gotten behind them and shown them so much love and compassion.
I AM CERTAIN GREAT THINGS WILL COME FROM THIS. I HATE JASON HAS TO SUFFER FOR IT, BUT BRIGHTER DAYS ARE AHEAD FOR HIM....
Please pray for this family. Pray for strength and courage. Pray for the families as they travel back and forth to the hospital. Pray for his care-takers, nurses and Doctors.

Things change quickly
I am still in shock at the news that I heard yesterday. I wish I could wake up and find out this is all a dream. I have questions that don't have answers. I don't understand things. The only thing I know for sure is that God is in control. For some reason he chose Jason to go through this valley. He is only 25 years old and he has 3 small children.
God has shown me so many times how quickly things can change, and I must say he knows what he is doing. He don't make mistakes. I just pray Jason realizes that... I know it is hard for a 25 year old to have that much faith. Because I am 43 years old and my faith grows daily. I do know at the age of 25 I don't think I could have went through what Jason is facing. I know he is a strong person, but I also know he is human and he don't understand all that is going on and he is scared.
Please just pray for him!! Pray that the right people will say the right words to him to encourage him, to make him feel he can do this.. Pray for angels to surrond him.. Pray for strength, pray for his mother, and his wife and there three young boys..

Where has the time gone!!
I really did not realize that it had been such a long time since I had posted. I said to myself when I started this blog I would not neglect it. Ooops..... I have really not had the time to update it though... With me working 60-70 hours a week it seems I only have time to work and sleep. Which is basically all that I do anymore.
I started the part-time job in November. I had so much idle time on my hands that I figured it would do me some good. Boy, has it helped me mentally. I never told anyone how depressed I was and if anyone was around me they would have known it,, I was losing weight and I had lost interest in everything. I avoided seeing people so they would not know.. I almost gave into the depression.. The words of my mom kept coming in my mind. She always told me and my sisters that everyone gets depressed and sad.. But you cannot give into it.. You have to make yourself go and do.. I tried to.. It took every ounce of energy for me to work my 8 hours everyday. I would come home and go straight to bed or pile up on the couch.. Most weekends I did not leave the house.
The part-time job has become my therapy. It has been so good for me, the extra money comes in handy too. I have not used a charge card for anything in almost a year. I am so proud of myself. If I want something, I just save until I am able to purchase it. It has worked so far..Shopping use to be my therapy.. Buying clothes would do it every time. I had to stop.. I had way too much..
I feel like my life is finally settling down a bit.. Lindsey is doing great in school.. Erica just graduated from Cosmotology... My girls have made me very proud.
We (my sisters and I) are in the process of cleaning down at my moms. We started this past week. We have started outside in my dads storage buildings. I think he had 15 of them (LOL).
As we pick up something it reminds us of Todd, Daddy, or Mama. We pick it up, tell a little story and sort it into one of the many piles. Oh how I miss them.
The eye opener of there deaths is that life is too short. Before, having things meant something to me.. But when you leave this earth you cannot take things with you.. It is all left behind.. It is not about who has the biggest and best house.. It is not about who has the best car/truck/boat, etc.. It is about the legacy you leave behind.. God will not judge us for the "things" we had. However I do believe God looks down on those who try to put on a show, and want people to think they have money... Make them think they have the best of everything.. God wants the best heart. That is what he is concerned about..
Nope, I could leave here today and walk away from every possesion I have and not miss a one of them.. It is the people in our lives that matter, the people who's lives we touch and bless..
Okay, I think I have pondered enough and I have a thousand thoughts in my mind.. I am so thankful i am not a plastic person... I am so thankful I am real, and that my life is not perfect, and I am thankful people know my life is not perfect.. I need God... Do you?
