Good Morning Sandra!! Thank you for first thing in the morning sweet greeting... I hope that you have a great day...

TGIF. Have a great Friday!

Check this http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/4978868/

That's great Sandra. Will be good to see you again. And this time for more than 5 min. LOL

Thank you for the birthday wishes, Sandra!

Glad you got to sleep in a little later this morning...Enjoy your day..Loved your blog about forgiveness. Bye for now.

Thanks Sandra, I loved your blog this morning. Maybe I could email you sometime and talk to you? You really are so smart about stuff and well sometimes I could use a listening ear, but I dont want to burden you? After all, this world isnt all about me. Your a special lady. Have a nice day...

Thanks Sandra, will write you later on today...

San, I am fine...and sober. My experience was a great lesson to me in showing more tolerance, and humility for those without, or those we perceive as being "different". I met some fine people, who don't have a pot to p in. Check out my profile. Later, Jack.

Sandra, You're one of me heros here! Really admire who you are, how you show up, how you write and what you accomplish. Norie

Good morning Sandra. Where was the GOLO yardsale? I am asking because Mocha needs help. I would love to have a yardsale for her but needed some info on how you did it. Please leave me a note on my profile or email me at gina7155@yahoo.com. Thanks!

Good Morning. He is home - they released him on Saturday morning, after telling us that they had finally isolated a bacteria that was thought to be the source of our troubles, but were having trouble identifying it. We have not heard the results of the identification as of yet, but he is much, much better, and we can attribute that fact only to the Lord's work since they have yet to give him any medications to fight it. He sees the pediatrician again in the morning, for a weight check, physical (for daycare) and his 2-month immunizations.

Thank you so much for your concern! (:

Hi Sandra, Hope your doing good..Just wanted to say hello and I hope you have a nice evening.

"For whatever reason my last comment disappeared, or never came up."

LOL, sure it did...just on a different blog =P

I do things like that so often I am surprised everyone doesn't think I'm flat out insane. It never looks like I'm making sense =P

Hey Sandra - thanks for adding me. I must admit, I've never felt this way before. I didn't know it existed!

hey sandra babe! i'm doing good. Hope you are too! I've just been lazy and havent been doing the qotd. Since you asked about it i'll do one today just for you!

Deputy Jackson is doing much better than first diagnosed. He has some movement ability in his right leg (he can lift it about a foot) and his left leg is (and his whole left side) has a tingling sensation. He can lift his left leg about 6 inches.

A fund has been set up at BB&T for Monica and Danny Jackson. Donations can be made at any branch. They still need some financial assistance.

Also, Deputy Jackson while now fully conscious, has only very limited memory of the accident.

Sandra---does Gary possibly need the washer/dryer?

Know what's disgusting. Mojo posts negative comments at my profile while I'm blocked from posting on mine.

Then he starts this, and I'm blocked there too.

How is that a good Christian?

It's repulsive to me...like seeing a snake in the grass.

God bless.

RB

"...while I'm blocked from posting on HIS."

sigh

This place is becoming exhausting.

God bless.

RB

SAndra, I blocked Rev becuase of her negative comments - yet I see she is gossiping about me to anyone that will listen - who is pathetic and repulsive?

I'm not supposed to be here because my husband asked me not to. He says I do not deserve to be anywhere that a bunch of losers abuse me and he can't stand to see it. But I wanted to say thx for everything and for being sweet. Sometimes I wish that you would take a stand for what is right but you are who you are and I accept that and also respect you for it. You are a good person and I hope you stay that way,.... I hope that sometime i the future to meet you again. Take care.

If you would, passs along his condition and let people know how they can help. If they would like any more information, they can contact me at my profile or call the HCSD monday through friday at 910-893-9111

Good Morning Sandra ~ Thank you for today's blog; it is inspiring. I believe that change is inevitable and that resistance to change is an incipient heatache. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday!

With sleep still chasing me....I woke to hand off a project...but soon to be back in my recliner for some much needed rest...thank you for your kind words and gentle spirit....((((((hugaboo))))))

Such an interesting person you are, and kind!!...I finally browsed your profile after all this time ..guess I was in my own little world. Your new book looks soooooooo good! Something I would like!

Hi Sandra: Received your voicemail message. I will pass along the message. -Angela

Hi Sandra, good blog this morning! Have a great day...

Hi Sandra -

When you get a chance, can you please ask Spunky to email me directly at rbredmond@att.net please.

I'm blocked from her profile and from replying on her blogs, and I can't imagine why, and this has happened twice in a week.

Thanks. You're the best!!!

God bless.

RB

Thanks Sandra.

You're the best!!!

Hope I haven't done anything to tick her off. I can't remember anything, but this has happened twice in a week.

God bless.

RB

Sandra, the reason Rev is blocked from mine and Spunky's profile is because of her attacks against me, she bounced around from profile to profile calling me names that were untrue and uncalled for ( I copied and pasted them to a word doc so there is proof- Spunky is my girlfriend now, she wont associate with anyone that is slandering me

And if I go to a blog and do any of the above (cause none of us is perfect), instead of whining, just block me. I'll understand and I won't whine.

God bless.

RB

Rev, Mojo and Spunky - I really believe that three good people are at odds with each other over something that unfortunately all of us have to contend with, which is the temptation of listening to the wrong voice. Mojo and Rev, both of you have good hearts and can rise above this block. Follow the path indicated by the light, not the darkness of a bruised ego. Many healing hugs to you both.

Good Morning Sandra *HUGS* I see I keep good company sharing the same passion as your Mom!!! Is she still in Italy???

Hey Sandra! I'm definitely ready for another yard sale. Now, the weather's in our favor too.

I would so love to see pictures if you have any and care to share!!! Do they have grapevines too??? My Great-Grandfather was from Itlay as was my Grandfather...they planted grapevines and made home made wines. One was a champagne grape and the other a purple...never have seen any like it around...he was also into growing pears and cherries. Hmmm may be where I get my love of a garden from *LOL* It's in the genes...I can blame that Right??? BUT will Hubby buy it *LOL*

"Did you get in touch with Krista?"

Not yet -- getting everything ready first. Thanks!

There is a strawberry farm on hwy 42 close to Fuquay. It's a pick your own or they'll pick them for you... they even have their own bee's.... so kewl.

Good Morning back to you Sandra...I think I will have a wonderful day today, and I hope you will too. Bigger Hugs back...lol
