Journal - All the Weird Stuff

Ok....well first off, there is new info on R.I.P TIMOTHY if you wish to look there. The second thing is I need to go rebuild the Tshirt page. I somehow lost it all and now to stop and rebuild it, as well start the Rub Tim's head fundraising project.

I'm sorry its taken me longer to come on here. A lot has happened and I'm not sure where to begin and hope I am not repeating myself.  

Well...where should I start?  LOL  

I am staying in a room at a family home while helping care for the mother in her early 70's with early-mid state of Alzheimers.  She is the sweetest person and has all good intentions even if she doesn't remember everything.  But I am talking postitive with her and reminding her she is ok, especially when she feels frightened and cries. I have taken care of Alzheimers patients before, so  have a bit of know what to expect.

I am hoping that I find a room mate soon- I really want the 2 bedroom apartment next door that they are renting out. The bedrooms are huge!!  even if the kitchen is small. The LR is an ok size w/the dinning room.  I have been praying about this. If I don't get it, I will have to look for a 1 bedroom place.  There is no way I can stay at this house. it is so old, hardly any electrical outlets, there are so many cracks in the ceiling and walls and one other thing that scares the crap out of me, other than the two big dogs.  

Plus I need my stuff. My stuff in the storage unit that I am paying big rent for.  I need Tim's stuff.  I need my bed. my sheets. My towels.  My kitchen stuff, my books and Tim's computer for class work. 

Oh BTW, I have registered with classes at the local college. I am a full time student and my pell grant was approved...only now it would be awarded.  Fortunately, two of the classes are online and the others are evening classes. That gives me room for a part-time to a full -time job, God willing.  I am praying that God please help me with this. I need to start working very soon.  The job with Ruth is only 6 hours a week. That is not enough. 

So please pray for this with me.  A good room mate or/and a real good job.  Only God has a good plan for me and I need to trust Him.   

My Pathfinders left for Oshkosh last Sunday and are on the way home now. They are in Tennessee.  We are putting together a gift lunch bag for them so when they arrive they can eat something on the way home.    Some of the parents and I are doing this, hopefully with the church's support.  I can't wait till I see them!!!  I wish I could had been there, but due to my health we agreed it would be best to stay behind.  Now to put the movie together so I hope they took lots of pictures!.  lol   

God has really been opening doors for me in so many different ways that has help make me see His goodness is about ready to flow.   Things at the college was falling into place. I started to see a therapist to help with my grief, not just my classes/disability.   I trust that good things will continue to happen, because He promises it.   

Lately, I have been listening more n' more to Chaplain Angelo Grasso. He really knows how to present his messages. He had one yesterday that was soooooo good! It was at church but it really opened my eyes to a better understanding on the book of Romans. What a powerful message. By the time I got to the video dept to sign up for a dvd of his message, a number of people already had been there.  I encouraged him later at vespers since he partly spoke there to make sure he video tapes all his messages and to put them up on You-tube.  So many people can get so much out of his messages. I tried to get the one from Vespers he spoke on Orientation, disorientation and reorientation.  If you read the book of Psalms, it is really obvious there. Jesus life was like this as well.

Tomorrow I finally go to the GI department. I needed this and oh my goodness, that phone call came in such a good timing.   I was seeing an academic advisor when the call came in...then out of the blue, my sugar dropped to 41 and I was rushed to the hospital since they thought i had seizures. But then they never ever tested me for seizures.   All they did was give me something to eat and discharged me. Really?! what a waste of time and money. I am NOT paying for that bill..  

Tuesday I see the disability resource at the college and then to Vocational Rehab later on that day. See what they can do to get me out of the Algebra classes and help me find a job.   Wednesday I go get my Cat Scan done to make sure the cancer is gone.  I see the oncologist next week.

Well...I am sure there is more to tell you, but as always, my brain went blank again! I'm on my way to the Dollar tree to get goodies for the pathfinders, then heading to a BBQ fundraising for the homeless. Maybe I'll find a $10 to get in between now n' then.  lol  You know I have a heart for the homeless, as I am one myself in a way. I have been blessed, but know God will help me through this.  I got to remember- His plan in His timing, not mine!
