Top O' the world Jen. Top O' the world. Yourself?

[Jen]

Busy with "real life", but doing fine.

2002 was the year from hell for hubby and me, but things seem better now. Hubby had shingles 2/02 in his right eye. Then in Nov. had a serious heart attack and almost died. He now has a defibrillator and seems to be doing better. His eye still hurts however. He has suffered greatly and with much courage. I could never have stood what he's been through.

Now that we got that out of the way. What are you doing with your life these days Louie? Are you being productive? Are you behaving yourself? Do you have a social life? Are you going to church? (Ha, you knew I would get around to that one LOL).

[Dubya]

You sure were close.

[WVNan]

Dubya, did I ever tell you I love your tagline?

[Dubya]

Thank you WVNan.

[Dubya]

If there was one more word it the verse it would not have fit.

[WVNan]

Isn't it strange how the Lord always takes care of the little details?

[Dubya]

It sure is.

[Jen]

Oh my goodness, I didn't know any of that Nan. You and your hubby certainly have had a rough year. My hubby had shingles when he was a teen and describes it as the worst pain he ever experienced. I can't imagine how awful it would be to have it in the eye! Plus a heart attack! Your poor hubby. Thank God he - and you - withstood it all.

My mom has had heart troubles during this last year too. Not a heart attack, but atrial fibrulation - which makes the heart 'quiver' with pulse around 200 beats per minute or more. No kidding. In addition to the risk of stroke, that causes the blood to 'churn' and produce clots which if one goes to the brain or heart could cause death. She takes blood thinner and many other meds. But I worry about her having even some minor accident and dying from internal bleeding before docs could get it under control.

My step-dad died a few months ago so now she's alone in rural Alabama. I go visit her and stay a night or two usually every week. Glad I have the flexibility to do it, but I'm on the road a lot.

Soooooo, that and taking a part-time job and being a full-time student keeps me busy (and 'usually' out of trouble). hehehehe

It's good to catch up with you Nan.

Hi, Sorry I didn't reply sooner. I've been out most of the day on business. Glad to hear from you.

[ST.LOUIE1]

Now that we got that out of the way.

Okaaaaay....

What are you doing with your life these days Louie?

Oh, hangin' out here lookin' for frisky wimmin.

Are you being productive? Are you behaving yourself?

Yes, and....no.

Do you have a social life?

Is this dansy??? Yep, as social as it gets.

Are you going to church?
(Ha, you knew I would get around to that one LOL).

Well, missy, it so happens, I attend church every Sunday. Disappointed? : )

You sound just like my mom used to. LOL

[ST.LOUIE1]

Sorry I didn't reply sooner.

No prob, some wait a week. : )

[Dubya]

Hope you are alright Jen. Sounds like you have a lot to handle. I'm sure you can do it.

[Jen]

Thanks so much for your post Dubya. I'm doing fine. God is good and won't give any more than I (or any of his children) can handle!
