Unplugging


jeremyillemyshopify.com


 

At the end of February, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I will undergo a lumpectomy one week from today. I will have radiation therapy to the cavity left by the removal of that small lump the following week. The therapy sessions will be twice a day for five days, that is the plan.

 

I have decided to unplug from my blog until May 4th. I decided I need this time to get some things done here at home and keep my many appointments prior to the surgery. One week after the lumpectomy, I start radiation. (one week of twice-daily, radiation treatments.)

 

Please pray for my family as we go through this upcoming month of medical appointments, surgery, and treatments.

Mercy and God’s Love

fourcubitsandaspan.blogspot.com

 

 

Psalm 51:1-4

Have mercy on me, O God,

According to your unfailing love;

According to your great compassion

Blot out my transgressions.

Wash away all my iniquity

And cleanse me from my sin.

 

David pleads for God’s mercy for God to blot out his transgressions, to wash away his sins and remove any trace of sin from his heart.

For I know my transgressions,

And my sin is always before me.

Against you and you only have I sinned

And done what is evil in your sight,

So that you are proved right when you speak

And justified when you judge.

David knows what he did, and he knows it was sinful, and it will always be before him.

 

King David is being honest here. He knows he has been found out. The prophet Nathan confronted him about his affair with Bathsheba and all that entailed. We, who claim to belong to Jesus, must examine our lives and our hearts to find our transgressions and surrender ourselves to God. It is up to each of us to do this for ourselves, no one can do it for us.

David speaks honestly before the LORD. We must do likewise.

 

I am taking a break from blogging. I have some things to take care of and need to get refreshed. I have been running close to empty and need to replenish myself and take care of some other things. I will be back on Tuesday, September 1st.

Unplugging





Dear Friends:

        I have to find out whether or not I will be selected to do one of my civic duties. I received a Summons for Jury Duty. Therefore, since I don't know how long this will take. I have decided to unplug until.June 1st.  Blessings to you and yours. I pray you will all have a safe Memorial Day weekend.

Unplugging

After a few weeks of feeling beat, I have decided I need to unplug from blogging.  I have some 'home' projects I need to attend to and can't find the right time to work on them.

I will pop back in to check for responses to my posts but I will not be posting anything here until Monday September 7, 2015.

I intend to  spend my time, getting ready for fall by going through my clothes and my household items and donating them to our church's rummage sale the weekend after Labor Day.

My reasons are because of health, both physical and mental. I deal with some depression and I want to stay on top of things as the season changes.

I trust you will understand.

Unplugging

This past Thursday night, I went down to our basement to get some sheets from the dryer. I fell off the old kitchen chair I keep down there to set clothes baskets on. I leaned back and the chair's left  back leg came off the raised concrete platform. I was thrown to my left, I twisted my back,brushed my side against the end of a sawhorse we have down there.  All I could think was."I don't want to hit my  head." When I landed,I was on my hands and knees.

I  am sore on the left side of my back and have experienced muscle spasms on the left side of my front. When I cough or laugh, it is not fun. I also had to ask a friend from church, "Please don't make me laugh."

I chose not to go to the ER Thursday night because I didn't know how I  could get there. The pain in the back is not as bad as it was. I am using a walker to get around the house--to the kitchen and to the bathroom.

Hubby redid our rock garden in front of our house. I did take the walker out to see it. This was what he wanted to do for Mother's Day. He worked on it for five days and he.also, is stoved up. Son came in early this afternoon. I don't know if we are going to make it to church in the morning. I depends on how I feel.

I don't really know how long I will be unplugged. I intend to see my doctor on Monday.

I wish to  extend Mother's Day greetings to all my friends who  are mothers, stepmothers, or menotors to children. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
