It's time for Happy Homemaker Monday!    The weather outside is::::   A typical spring-time in Detroit - yesterday was sunny and near 70, last night was full of thunderstorms, and today is cold, windy and rainy!  On the breakfast plate this morning:::: To be honest I had a McDonald's dollar sausage burrito :/   As I look outside my window::: The trees are just starting to bud.  The sky is gray and cloudy.  The wind is whipping the tree branches around and there is no blue sky in sight! Right now I am:::: Oh, I am supposed to be working!  I'm taking a break from typing up H&Ps for the hospital and boarding surgeries.  As I look around the house:::: My kitchen desperately needs my attention.  I am out of work early today, so I will be giving using my new FlyHelper app to get through my routines!   TO DO:::: 1.

Happy Homemaker Monday!  Please join in over at Diary of a SAHM!  The weather..... Spring is finally coming to Detroit!  I'm so excited.

Be Strong and Pray

This week has been filled with opportunities to be there for people I care about.  It started when one of my closest friends lost her father over the weekend.  He has been on hospice and the family knew that it wouldn't be long, but that doesn't mean that they are not mourning with hearts full of hurt and loss.  The viewing and funeral were sad but lovely events, full of heartfelt memories of a great father and husband and teary-eyed hugs and comforting hand squeezes.  I love my friend and it hurts me to see her suffering such a significant loss and being so helpless to relieve any of her pain.  She and her sisters, and especially her mother, are being strong, brave women.  My prayer for them is to know the comfort of their Savior in this time.  After the funeral, I went to check on a friend who wasn't feeling well.  I could tell immediately that this was more serious than just being under the weather.  She was pale, listless, fever...
