Lord lead us to find happiness and love........

Well, a lot has happened. It's been awhile since I've blogged. No one really follows my blog and I wouldn't either except that it's sort of a journal for me.
I went to visit my oldest sister (she's 75 years young this year) and her husband, down in Marion, Ohio. We had a wonderful visit. I love listening to her about her life. I didn't meet her till 1995, even though we share the same mom. Our , mother died in 1965, when I was 9 yrs. old. She would have been about 30 at the time. Anyway, due to circumstances at the time, I grew up under the eye of the children's services , as did my one full sister, whom I was lucky enough to live with in our various foster homes till I was about 13 years old. I didn't see or know much of her after that until she graduated high school about 3 yrs. later. Even then, I was still in foster homes, and school, so I saw very little of her. Perhaps on holidays like Christmas, that was about it.
Anyway, Joann was pregnant with her first child when our mother was pregnant with me. So, consequently I am the same age as my sister's daughter, who is no longer living. She died in her twenty's. Freaky, huh?
Well, when we get on the phone together, we usually talk for about 3 hrs, or so. Her husband Roy is her second husband. She got a divorce from her first husband after about 45 years of marriage. She got married to her second husband, whom she went to the same school with, but never dated, since about 2 or 3 years after her divorce from her first husband. Her current husband and her have been married now for about 7 years, they are very much still in love. And, they like each other, too!!!! We all had a wonderful time together, although it was the 4th of July weekend, we barely noticed. We did all have fun though. Poor Roy pretty much was on his own, he would tire of our reminiscing, he's heard it all before, so he'd go about his business and leave us to ourselves. Now, that's love, God bless him.
I found out on my last night at my sister's via my son's blog that he had lost his girlfriend. of about 2 and a half years, about 9 mos. of which he has been his almost stepdaughter's only babysitter., which by the way really cut into his free time, since her mother was gone Wed.-Sun. from 6 pm till 4am and he was the care giver for the daughter. In fact, his girlfriend starts a new work shift the coming up week, and my son was babysitting her daughter while she was at work on Sat. when she texted him that she wanted to break up with him. She also facebooked him with the same info. All this while he has charge of her daughter's care. That was perhaps done to show someone at work that she really was breaking it off with her current boyfriend, ya think????? Now with her new shift, she can easily get regular daycare. It's not so easy when you work a weird midnight shift. Talk about someone who has heaped coals on their own head, wow!!!!!!!!! Look out, God don't like UGLY!!!!! Boy is this, UGLY!!!!! Now, I know I don't know everything, but come on, there's a right way and then, there's a RIGHT WAY!!!!! Anyway, it's my son and her daughter who are suffering the most. But, I do trust that God will answer the prayers of all of us who are interceding on behalf of my son, and he will find happiness and the one whom he truly deserves. I now this. God guide us all, always!!!!!! That's all for now.

update

It's been a while since my last post and once again I've somehow messed up. In trying to remember how to post to my blog, I've created a second blog. Oh Lord !!! Well, I'll keep this short since my computer literate son will have to help me get back on track in the blogging world. I am doing well and have a lot, as usual, to be thankful for. I recently had a health scare, but I'm fine now. It does give you a more intense viewpoint on what's important in life, at least it did me. However, it doesn't help you figure out how to deal with those important things. Oh well, can't have everything. I've got a lot of blessings. I'm just going to concentrate on that for the time being. Bye for now. Whoever might come across this blog, I wish you all the best in life, and many good turns.
