Keep us posted, k?

Yesterday around 11:00 a.m., in a town near me, a guy went to the hospital where his ex-wife was a nurse, called her outside to talk to her, and shot her 5 times.  She was flown to a bigger hospital nearby, but later died.  They found him last night trying to cross the Canadian border. 

There are 2 small girls involved (5 & 9) who can use all the prayers we can offer right now. 

That IS a rainbow after a storm now! 

I am truly happy for you and KUDOS to that hospital system for yanking those jobs out of the grips of the greedmonger MTSOs in India. 

I would apply myself if I didn't have to drive to Michigan!!

I hope all goes well with you.  Congratulations. 

Good for you!! It is so nice to hear a positive post.

I do not suppose you would care to share your new company?

I have a rose on my right shoulder, well the back of my shoulder.  I've had it for about six years now.  It's the only one I have.  I have considered getting another, but just haven't come across the right one yet.  If you are going to get one, make sure it is something that has some meaning for you as it will be there forever.  I would definately advise against putting anyones name on your body, even if it is your spouse.  The only name I would ever put on me would be my child's name. 

As far as the pain goes, I won't lie to you...it does hurt.  Depending on where you get it on your body will depend on just how bad it will hurt though.  When I got mine, the pain was not all that intense.  It feels kind of like a bee sting...that continues and continues until they stop with the needle.  Getting the outline done is the worst part as the needles are a bit larger.  The part on mine that hurt the most was when he was near my shoulder blade and that is because when you are over bone it is going to hurt worse because there is not a lot of muscle there to cushion it.  The good news is, when they stop, the pain stops.  At least that's how it was in my case.

Another thing...to prevent your tattoo from fading as fast (and your tattoo artist should tell you this if he/she is good) if you are in the sun make sure you put sunblock on your tattoo.  It is good to put sublock on your body anyway, but make sure especially to put sunblock on your tattoo, as the sun is a sure way to drain the color out of your tattoo a lot faster.  I got mine done a little over six years ago and it still looks like new.  Also, if you do decide to get one, follow the aftercare instructions very carefully.  My tattoo artist had special ointment to put on the tattoo after it was finished, but I understand that A&D ointment (for diaper rash) works well also.  You have to keep it moist to prevent it from scabbing over.

Bottom line is, a tattoo is a life-long piece of artwork for your body.  You should pick something that is meaningful to you and put it in a place that you would like it to be.  Personally, I would never put one in a place that could not be covered up if need be...but that's just me.

Good luck!

I'm thinking of planting rose bushes along our new fence and just can't decide from all the varieties.  I do want some that bloom all summer long and are winter hardy. Illinois can be brutal sometimes.

We've never even actually met him in person, but he is my husbands best friend's only sibling and my husband's friend was going through such a horrible time waiting and wondering that he couldn't even go to work. We only wish everybody could have good news.

Thanks again.

I just learned that my boss's daugher-in-law and grand-daughter were involved in a horrendous car accident. The DIL suffered many fractured bones, on top of a pre-existing MS condition. However, the grand-daughter may die, and even if she survives she will likely have severe brain damage.

Can those of who you believe in a high power keep this family in your thoughts and prayers?

Just e-mailed your request to my church who has a prayer group that meets everyday and prays for the requests that are sent in.  Have also sent a few of my own on the way.  Hope all works out.

Please let them know that my prayers are with them, knowing already that God's healing work is with them already.  Thanks for letting us know.

Blessings

Maggie

You are in my prayers and hopefully someday the resentment and bitterness will be gone from your heart.  Good luck in your life.
