Sun Stand Still............

Well I am reminded yet again that our time here on earth isn't guaranteed and you never know when your time is up. Does the house not being super clean really matter? Does what someone said that hurt your feelings really matter? Does the fact that a truck is late really matter? I'd have to say no! Although Robyn made her choice to take her own life, my bosses brother in law did not. He was jogging last night and had a massive heart attack and died. Here is a man with two small children who was doing what he was supposed to and God took him home. I am sure all of their family is now praying that the sun will stand still as they grieve for the loss of their loved one.

I look in my office every morning and I think how important life is. I still have many plants from Robyn's service and it's a refreshing reminder to give thanks.
This plant is from my longest friend Jennifer and her mother. The flower died, ok I am not the best horticulturalist, sheesh I get it. I'm doing good to keep the plant alive!


The big plant was from some friends of Mom's and the smaller one I got yesterday from one of my distributors that had just heard what happened. Very nice of them, I might add.

Roger is in Michigan and was very concerned with telling his 83 year old mother what had happened to Robyn. It turned out that she handled it very well. I had told him she already knew something was going on because he was up there. She's probably a very wise lady that is familiar with people passing on. She's lived a long life herself. I'm glad for Roger that he was able to make it through what he thought was not going to go well. I told him that he had already done the hardest thing he'll ever have to do in life and that was let go of his own child. He can make it through anything now, and he can!

While the next year is going to be difficult, once you get past the "firsts" the pain starts to subside. I have never lost a child and I pray to my Heavenly Father that I never experience that but I have lost my dad and I know that pain all too well.


This week has been a busy week at work. We had a Superbowl meeting and it looks like I am good and ready for this game to be here. For the first time in 3 years I think we will be ok on wings. I sit at my desk and have a chicken staring me down, it's like the chicken controls my world! hahaha

Good thing, I really like chickens, oh and look at my two punks! Lord I love them and this picture! It's soooo them!!

Tonight I'm going to see the boyfriend for the first time since the breakup. I'm nervously excited which is a good thing. I'm sure it will be fun! Oh and the Rangers lost so they get to win back here in Texas! I'm sure that's all they wanted anyway, they just gave the Yankees that win so they could come home and win big! I've got no doubt!

Have a good day today and give thanks that you've been given another day to see God's glorious gifts!

XOXO
