Hopefully they’re just busy and will come get it next week instead of Thursday like they promised. But thanks for the encouragement on the azaleas. And about the notebook post. I love notebooks. :-)Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-70934485414483878112011-06-10T08:27:07.828-05:002011-06-10T08:27:07.828-05:00I look forward to seeing the Bible notebook post o...I look forward to seeing the Bible notebook post on Tuesday.

I understand lack of sleep. Don't let it go on too long before you get it checked out. I have prayed.<br /><br />I'm not sure if I told you this but I stopped memorizing Philippians. I found it was stealing time from regular Bible reading – and there's just so much of it – I missed just reading. I went through the first chapter. I don't think it's a failure – I gave up on purpose - for a purpose. I heart reading you Lisa.

But you are where I heard of it. So when it came up free for the Kindle, I snatched it. I’m really enjoying it so far. I think you’ll like it when you get enough margin in your life to read it. :-) I join God in thanking Him for you feeling better! If I could just get more sleep at night I would feel better.<br /><br />100 is too hot; 90 is fine. I love summer. <br /><br />For the Mother/Daughter group we are reading “Love Wins.” It’s controversial, I know, but we are having some excellent discussion and questioning. I think it will push us all deeper into the Word to dig for answers.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-70619695875483948962011-06-09T15:00:44.914-05:002011-06-09T15:00:44.914-05:00It's been near 100° here in Virginia for a cou...It's been near 100° here in Virginia for a couple of days now. ICK! I'm not a summer person at all! Give me autumn nights and bonfires any day!<br /><br />I <i>still</i> haven't gotten to Margin. Maybe that should tell me something! What are you reading for the Mother/Daughter book club?<br /><br />Sorry you are so tired. I've been sick since the end of February, and I'm OVER IT. Finally starting to feel a little better. Praise the Lord!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14488537925889589851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-28562424282738985592011-06-09T10:46:53.292-05:002011-06-09T10:46:53.292-05:00Good point, Barbara.

I probably need to let go of the concept of “healed.” Maybe that’s one reason I keep getting blindsided. <br /><br />I know from you and others that you never “get over” losing your parents, but that the pain does lessen with time. I think I’ve tried to be on the fast-track and that’s not happening. <br /><br />Thanks for being patient with me… The Lord is good to put godly believers (like you) in my life who have walked this path already and are willing to guide me through this.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-81422484946401294292011-06-09T10:11:41.364-05:002011-06-09T10:11:41.364-05:00It's way hot already here, too, this morning. ...It's way hot already here, too, this morning. So glad for AC, except I don't want to leave my house! :-)<br /><br />I don't know that I would apply the word "healed" to dealing with the death of parents. If I did compare it to a wound or an injury, it's one that would always be a little tender, always subject to unexpected flare-ups. Your having lost both parents relatively close in time to each other would make it all the more so.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-11343700708254134822011-06-09T09:28:52.161-05:002011-06-09T09:28:52.161-05:00Thanks, Nancy.

Margin is a great read, and watermelon really is the taste of summer, isn't it? Hope you're having fun (like I told you to) with the wedding plans. And, no, the healing from losing your parents will never be complete, not this side of eternity. Gives us one more thing to long for, yes?Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04881750571782158938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-2975975766170538612011-06-09T07:59:44.522-05:002011-06-09T07:59:44.522-05:00Julie,

Time is weird. Sorry about your cousin’s dad. Funerals are sad for lots of reasons but I do enjoy getting to see relatives there that I don’t see very often. Hope you got to experience that last night. <br /><br />I know you’re looking forward to Tuesday! 5 days! I pray you enjoy every second of it. And I know you’ll be glad when you’ll get to be in the same town again EVERY day. I’m excited for you.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-56214207203367735212011-06-09T07:54:29.981-05:002011-06-09T07:54:29.981-05:00NEW header!...Kind of like getting a new haircut.....NEW header!...Kind of like getting a new haircut....people notice these things on Blogger...:-) <br /><br />My cousin's daddy died this past Monday - spent quite a while at the funeral receiving event last night (long line) and pondered a lot...yes... I still feel the pain...It was November, but really not that long ago...these things have a way of pulling up afresh those memories and that day...<br />I too, am tired of being tired!! :-) Looking for that oasis in the desert! :-)...(do we call that burnout, ya think?) And..what am I most going to like doing this June of 2011??? Being with my hubby for 5 days when he flies in Tuesday pm!!!! <br />(cue the applause/cheers/whistle machine!!!!!) seeing the light at the end of this one tunnel in our journey together....(well not together for right now...)but God willing - SOON!<br />God's grace IS sufficient.. I deeply know that, where I stand today. Without it, many people would not be standing. I am grateful today. Hugs to you Lisa. thanks for inspiration to consistently count blessings.... Gratitude - hands down - is the BEST attitude. xoJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11503664045488972731noreply@blogger.com
