2014 update

Okay so I just now realized that it has been since October of last year since I wrote a blog. I have been very busy with work, church, and a wonderful woman's bible study. Anyways, Thanksgiving was not exactly the same for me. I found out that a really good friend of mine was sick in ICU for many weeks. Then on December 5th, I found out she had cancer. I was very heart broken at that time and I prayed every night for my friend. At one point my friend was out of ICU and was ready to start chemo and then a few weeks later she was back into ICU and she wasn't doing very well at all. This friend of mine passed away on Christmas Eve and it was really hard for me to loose her. I just can't imagine how hard it was for her family to loose her. I had lots of prayers and lots of shoulders to lean on and I even read a book by Nancy Guthrie and I started to slowly get better. I went to her memorial on January 25th and that was such a beautiful memorial. The most hardest part for me now is not being able to email, call, or go visit this friend of mine. R.I.P Karen... you are loved and missed. In February James and I went to the Mardi Gras at the Radisson. Friday and Saturday we just sold cds for Blue Street and I got in a few swing dances. Then on Sunday I got to watch my adoptive niece. I enjoyed that so much. On Fat Tuesday James and I decided we were going to have a New Orleans Style dinner so we went to Sequoia Brewing Company. The next thing coming up is on March 19th where I will be giving a testimony on how we lost everything and how I was then and now. I am a bit nervous but I know I will do just fine! :)
