PTL..Good News!!!

You may remember a few weeks ago when I talked about how I was tired, really tired. It was more than that, I was really down. I had John's sister, Saundra, going through colon cancer surgery..one of my best girlfriends filing for divorce..a couple close to me thinking of divorce..and someone else close to me having problems with a child. I needed the joy of the Sandbox as a good distraction and you were all there making me laugh and I love every one of you for it. Thank you!!


An update...we just found out today that Saundra had her first chemo treatment this morning and found that the cancer did not metastisize. This means that the chemo she will be receiving is aimed at preventing a reoccurrence of the colon cancer and not at treating any metastatic disease. PTL!!


My girlfriend is content with her decision to divorce and is doing very well.


My other people contmeplating divorce are in couple's counseling and doing well working on making their marriage better than ever.


Sadly, my other person continues to have serious problems with her child and I continue to pray for that situation.


That is how life goes it seems. We go through really good times when all is well around us. That's when I know that after awhile something bad is right around the corner. I predicted it right before my last DH got cancer. I predicted it again shortly before this last bout of troubles began and mentioned it to a friend that all is too good in my life and I know something bad is going to happen soon. I have shed buckets of tears over these situations as I cannot stand the people that I love being unhappy. I have had faith that all will be well though. Now I and most of my dear ones have been brought up from the depths of sadness and been given great joy again. God is good..all the  time.


Thank you everyone for your kind support..for the prayers..for the positive thoughts..and for the laughter through my tears.


Love to you all.......

I guess that's a good..or safe..way of thinking, but what I meant is that things can only go along for just so long when all seems well in your life. I mean really really good where
