Hello, lovely friends. Depression is still hanging in there. I feel like everything is out of my control and spiraling downward. I'm still fighting daily. Wondering again why God allows this. It makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong.

    Such nice pictures! I hope you have a nice weekend, since you said packing I'm assuming you're going on a trip and I hope that does a lot to lift your spirits! I remember when I was struggling with depression I read the book The Resolution for Women by Priscilla Shirer (I always have to look up how to spell her name lol!) and there was a chapter about breaking generational chains. I realized my depression came from a generational stronghold and it helped me pray through it. I've had 'down' times but never like I did before that, so that booked helped me a lot!
    And yes, that's the way I was taught the Lords prayer as well. Its so comforting to me! I hope you have a nice week with lots of nice walks!

I am linking up with Sandra from Diary of a Stay at Home Mom for Happy Homemaker Monday On My Breakfast Plate: It was actually a bowl of chicken noodle soup!  The weather in my neck of the woods .....  Today is in the mid 50s - tomorrow the mid 80s!  I am hopeful there will be some sunshine so I can enjoy my new bench on my balcony and get some Vitamin D. Right now I am.... THE COVID CHRONICLES Right now I am recovering from COVID-19.  Back on Easter Sunday my girls and I went to my dad's to cook dinner.  Once we were already there, my dad mentioned he wasn't feeling quite right.  Soon after he and my sister found out they were positive.  A couple of days after that my daughters both tested positive.  Then me.  Then my other sister.   Dad was hospitalized for a few days at the beginning.  His oxygen dipped down into the 80s.  I am so thankful to God that he was released shortly after.  NO pneumonia!  No blood clo...

  You can visit Sandra and join HHM HERE                           Hello, sweet friends. I'm going to ask for prayer right up front! I have a doctor's appointment and an ultrasound to find out what a bulge in my abdomen is. I'm leaning towards ventral hernia - but there is always the possibility of something worse. I would really appreciate knowing that I'm being lifted up to the LORD.              *** The weather in my neck of the woods***   Cooler weather!

This is my first time participating in Saturday 9, hosted by Samantha @ Samantha Saturday 9  Saturday 9: What Hurts the Most  1)  Any aches and pains to report?   Achy all over - but I'll take it over other pain!  2) What's the last thing you misplaced? Did you find it? A receipt my mom needs to return something she received for Mother's Day.  Have not found it yet!  3) Lead singer Gary LeVox sings that he's not afraid to cry. When is the last time you shed a tear? Earlier this week when I found out that an  acquaintance  of mine had passed of cancer.  It was very unexpected and she was just a wonderful woman!  4) Tell us about something you thought you wanted, but later weren't sure? Seat covers for my car - I've wanted them for the past couple of months, but once I put them on, I hated them and took them right off!  5) What else is Ohio known for? Losing to the Michigan Wolverines?  :)  6) ...
