  The past couple of weeks have been busy ones ...

   

  Last week I got new carpet but of course, before I could have that put down - I had to put anything that wasn't furniture away so the furniture could be moved.

   

  Still haven't found a good part of the stuff yet but do know it's here somewhere!    LOL

   

  Also I had signed up to go through training here to learn to fill out the forms to sign the older people here, up for boxes from the food bank.

   

  

   

  Then spent part of a day signing people up for that ... it's nice that they do it this way 'cuz the people [60 and older] don't have to leave our building to do sign up and then the food is delivered to them.

   

  I've barely been on the computer the past few weeks either - there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day for everything but I miss not being on here.

   

  Have only been on Facebook a couple of times to check messages too which for me, is way unusual.

   

  One thing I've been spending a lot of time on is making crosses ahead to be able to send over-seas to orphanages when the churches from here go over again.

   

  

  
  Also have been making them and hope to be able to send some down to a re-hab center in Atlanta. 

   

  A few months ago I learned about this girl named Andi Webb who is 19 years old and was in a horrific car accident on December 29th.

   

  She has a long way to go yet and her and her mom [well, her whole family] can use many prayers because Andi has a long way to be fully recovered.

   

  Andi was in a coma - I think it was something like for a month and a half?   It was a long time, I do know that. 

   

  

   

  Thank God I have never had to go through anything like this mom and I pray that I never have to go through anything like it.

   

  Andi's mom, Sherry has been with her daughter through this and I'll tell ya ... that takes an amazing amount of strength which she is leaning on God for.

   

  

   

  I had never thought of people in these situations before  had met Mike Mincy's page online [I posted about him before and he is still in a coma and of course, still needs prayer.]

   

  Reading Sherry's journal each day on how things are going with her and her daughter and her ups and downs,

   

  It's heartbreaking much of the time but she still praises God for even the littlest improvements with Andi ...

   

  Of course in reality, I knew that such things went on where parents had to be away from home for long periods of time with their children in situations like this,

   

  But, I guess when you read the day to day accounts - it sure brings it home just how exhausting and draining it is on the families, not to mention a financial drain as well. 

   

  Please pray for these people and also for Mike Mincy and his family as well.  

   

  

   

  On to other stuff for a bit now ...

   

  I've been wanting to re-do my blog but not exactly sure how or what I want on it yet so that's been in the back of my mind.   Still thinking on it though! 

   

  One thing I do want to do is to figure out how to make categories to file my postings under ...

   

  Not sure if this can be done on here but I think awhile back I did read where someone had figured something out for it, now if I can just find it again.   LOL

   

  Guess it's time that I start going through and sorting my bookmarks out once again [ugh, what a mess!]  

   

  Will post again soon as I can ... many times I do have the time if I were to manage it right but alot of times it's the energy I'm missing to be able to do it.   'Sigh'

   Love,

      Jennelle
