General Discussion / Re: Cats like Sardines - It's ...
Last post by MsJennJenn - Today at 05:15:03 PMSomething needs to give for sure. People are struggggggling.
We had to make an emergency trip to Dallas Tuesday. Husband is blind in one eye (due to VHL - von-hippal lindau - a rare genetic disease). And he was/is having some fuzzy in his only good eye. SOOO stressful
But... dr says he is okay. Says the fuzzy is old debris in his eye from prior issues but should hopefully go away? IDK. Husband doesnt know why it happened and dr didnt say anything. *I think* - its cus he came from sleeping 4 hours to working a SIXTEEN hour shift overnight. I think he was/is just tired and stressed but IDK. That's just my thoughts.
I'm just thankful it's nothing serious and he doesn't have to have surgery on the good eye. He DOES have angiomas (tumors) on the good eye as it is. We already knew that. So the fear was something related to those but it's not. They leave these tumors because it's more detrimental to his eyesight to remove them vs. leaving them until/if they ever cause issues.
It's been a week. So glad it's Friday.

But now I have to take her to her doctor appointment today. Hope she gets another car soon. Cars are so expensive nowadays. She lives in the next town over, so it's not like it's just around the corner.They are indeed way expensive. Especially for anything with less than a quarter million miles on it and decent.

Last post by Nelle - Yesterday at 02:56:35 PM@Work. I have had the equivalent of two breakfasts in a plan to try to avoid snacking before lunch.

Last post by Roscoe - Yesterday at 12:31:31 PMUrgh. Morning. Made it through yesterday....Bible study went well. About 40 there, with several out with health issues. Announced a planned Baptism for Sunday night and had a lady that just started attending about a month ago raise her hand. "Would you mind baptizing me that night as well?" No ma'am, indeed I would NOT mind. Without offense- I'll treat folks like cattle in that regard- I'll run them through and baptize in Jesus' name until I'm outta water or people. 
So glad to see God moving in our area and I just want to be a part of it.
In much less spiritual news, I am cranky and sore this morning- aka a normal day. Hope y'all have a great one!

I got a pair of earplugs, cut them in half and colored the cut end with a black marker. Good sound protection, no questions from other church people. Nobody can see them.
Just in case you get tired of people looking at you funny for wearing headphones in church.
Not been able to find any in ear options that won't bother the pressure in my ears. Got any suggestions on ear plugs minus eardrum pressure? Thankfully my church family and pastor is well aware of autism and sound sensitivity so they're not phased by me wearing headphones in church. My Pastor's middle daughter wears them too sometimes.

Last post by Backseat Radio - April 16, 2024, 07:28:17 PMWas a good weekend here. My church hosted the ALJC Indiana Section 2 Youth Rally Saturday afternoon. I was supposed to be the one running the ProPresenter. A friend that I invited showed up and wanted to be able to sit with me, so my Pastor booted me out of the media room and took over running the ProPresenter so I could be with my friend since it was his first time at my church. I ended up getting quite a sunburn during the afterburner food and fellowship after the rally.
Sunday service were good. Had a lady get the Holy Ghost. I've been working with wearing headphones during church for the past few weeks to better tolerate the noise levels. Discovered during altar service that they help me tune out the distraction of folks wanting to pray with me so I can focus on praying.
I get my bikes back tonight.
I'd sent my teen years bike to the shop to be resurrected from the dead. It had sat behind dad's house for over 10 years getting dirty, rusty. The seat was half eaten by some critter, the tires were tore up from the mud, and the shifter cables were wore out. The bike shop made it look new. My newer bike I had cleaned and safety checked.
